CJ- You crack me up! :) You have been so funny and entertaining lately. Some things to note:
- sometimes you call me "Jo" and dad "Frank". I don't think you have any idea why that's funny.
- when you try talking to us and we don't turn to look at you you'll say "look at me I'm trying to tell you something."
- we've just started leaving the upstairs gate open at nap time and in the morning so that you can just come down when you get up. You haven't fallen down the stairs yet, so that's a good thing. When you come down stairs and walk into the family room you have a look on your face like you're so proud of yourself and you're such a big boy.
- even though it still takes forever for you to fall asleep at night, I think we've established a night time routine that works for all of us. Dad does your bath and you've been so good with him. I think you even tip your head back for him when he washes your hair. He gets you lotioned and dressed and then brushes your teeth. It seems to be going well. And at the end of brushing your teeth you jump off the counter to dad and do a high five and say "hoo-ah". It makes me smile every time I hear you say it. Then you say good night to dad and Alex and you and I read some books and I sit with you until you fall asleep.
