64

*Dean was feeling better but still had runny yucky nose, a little cough. But it all cleared up by the end of the week.
*He woke up at 8 Sunday so we inly did one nap, after church. He did pretty well so when he woke up at 740 on Monday, we tried again and faaaaail. He was so grumpy all morning and then didn't take long enough of a nap during his one nap and was grumpy all evening
*Calls sheep baa
*Says whoa a lot
*Pushes backwards on motorcycle
*Noooooo. Haha this one is funny. He has been learning no but still doesn't quite understand what it means. So he says it randomly. But we were eating and he dropped something and then was like nooooooo. He did it once more. He may or may not have heard me say this once or twice in his life.....hahah.
*Says lotion "shh" and diaper "piper"
*Copies drumming fingers
*First sandwich- we've been giving him bread with chocolate sunflower butter on it, but it's so messy, we only do it right before bath. But I finally tried folding it into a sandwich and it worked out great at the park!! No mess!! He has had peanut butter a little here and there and no reaction so when his sunflower butter is gone, we'll just switch to peanut butter.
*he says Balloon more than just bah and it sometimes sounds like baboon
*ok so this has been for a while. When I say something hurts or to watch your head, he will gently hit his head, at first and then might progress a little and then it hurts! Like he had the remote and he was hitting it hard on my knee. I said, ouch, and that hurts mama. He then gebtly hit his head with it! Uhhhhhh? I stop him but sometimes it's too late. He doesn't always progress to hard hits. But still. I hope it's just him learning, and this is normal!
This week was really lonely for me, but luckily this rotation is not as hard as we anticipated. KR even had Saturday off and got home most days by 5 and one 6.
Next week he has Thursday off for Susan's wedding and doesn't have to make up for it Saturday! So the only hard time this rotation will be the weekend of the 16th, he has to do Sat and Sun, making it a 12 day stretch. And that's the weekend of his birthday plus we have two social events that Saturday. So I'm just mentally preparing, and it will be fine. I'm just grateful Catherine and her bits will be in town this coming week, starting Monday (which was yesterday, as I am technically typing this Tuesday morning haha. She's already here)
