Sorry to interrupt

Every morning, as I leave the house I make it a point to seek out Casey and Sydney for a goodbye kiss. On the occasions I forget, Casey comes running and crying, 'Hug, kiss!' This morning, I come down the stairs and look for Casey. I don't see him, so I call out for him. "Casey, where are you?"



A meek voice came from in between some furniture, "Pooping". I track the voice, and see Casey squatting between the couch and the massage chair. He realizes I am leaving for work, so he cuts his business short, and emerges to give me a hug and a kiss. That accomplished, he promptly returned to his 'spot' and continued doing what he was doing...

S*it the bed

I came home and immediately saw a stack of laundry on the washer. I walked upstairs and saw another pile of um, soiled laundry on the bathroom counter. I walked past Sydney's portable crib and saw it was bare... stripped down, to its poles and nets. I walked into the kitchen, and saw a bunch of Sydney's toys soaking in the sink, with an empty carton of disinfectant nearby. As if I couldn't have pieced together what happened, I was told Sydney had an accident in his portable bed. Although I didn't witness the bombing, based on the physical evidence I reviewed, I have reconstructed the sequence of events. Sydney nuked his diaper. The diaper couldn't contain the volume, the 'stuff' leaked out onto the bed sheets. Either by accident, or on purpose, Sydney sloshed around in the 'stuff' smearing it about. Once the stuff was sufficiently spread about, he got his hands in it... and subsequently handled his toys. A lot of his toys are chew toys... IE: they go directly from hand to mouth... Yuck..

Slippery lil sucker

Sydney has recently made huge progress in one important aspect of child development. Thumb-sucking. As can be seen below, he managed to get a clean suck of his thumb... Alas, it was a merely a fleeting success; that thumb is one slippery 'lil sucker.

Suckers!

Suckers!

Da boys at 2 yrs, 5 months and just plain ol 5 months, respectively! They are both suckers. Casey loves sucking his thumb. Sydney, well, he'll suck anything he can. Finger, hand whatever...

Happy Birthday to me

I recently got to celebrate a birthday with both my sons. Casey loves birthday cake. Don't think he completely understands the concept of birthday's though. About every other day, after dinner, he will ask for birthday cake.



Speaking of not getting the concept, I tried to enlist Sydney's help to cut my cake... Umm, maybe it's a little soon for that.

SD trip in photos

I'm a little behind. I am finally getting around to posting some photos from our visit to SD back in July.
