This was the first outing that I took the kids out alone. Usually when we go out it's to Starbucks so I get them in the car on my own but Mike can help get them out and help supervise the toddler. Logan and I had a big pep talk before we went (she was going to get her flu booster) and she seemed ready to take the lead as big sister. She impressed the nurses by answering most of the questions about the baby. Their conversation (which was originally directed at me) went as such:
Nurse: "Ok mom, where does Brody sleep? Is he in your room?"
L: "No, ma room...in Brody's tib (crib)" (he does nap in there)
Nurse: "Oh...ok then. Is he breastfed or formula?"
L: "Brody boy eat nah-nahs (what she called nursing). Mommy mok (mommy's milk)."
Nurse: "Well let's get him undressed and get his weight."
L: "Brody boy no like may-may (naked)."
Mind you, I was throwing in translations and answers in between but I couldn't help laughing at how she felt the need to take charge of the appointment. She also became very protective of him when he started screaming as they took his weight and softly whispered that she wanted them to stop to me. When the Dr. came in and asked which child she was seeing Logan smiled and said "Brody, but I get shot today, too." To which the Dr. replied that children do not readily admit that they're getting shots. (Yes, she knew what a shot was...she had been telling Mike and I all morning she was going to get a boo boo on her leg but that she'd get a bandaid and chick-fil-a after)
Anyway, here's the only new picture I have of the boy:
Thank goodness for my moby wrap! This sweet boy has decided as of late that he wants to be held when he's awake- and who can blame him? :) Anyway, as soon as I slip him into this bad boy, he calms down immediately and I'm able to get some house work done. Thankfully, we've been really good about putting him down when he's sleeping so he's been very good about sleeping on his own. That's about it!
