The wee man has really become a verbal sponge. So we will soon, if not immediately have to be very very careful of what is said in front of him.
Swear jar might have to go into effect and HT will have to begin the BSG effect. Frack...
We have almost completed the transformation of the spare bedroom downstairs to a play room and the reclamation of the upstairs living room has slowly but surely begun.
We have gone to the allergist and some relief is in sight. Peanuts have come off the verboten list. Which helps alot because who doesnt like peanut butter?
So I gave him some peanuts the other night and got a hearty "Mas please" out of him. Bonus!
And milk is starting to come off the list. Still a reaction but we might be able to give him things that have been cooked and have milk as a very minor ingredient. Take the small victories where you can get them.
The allergist: let me tell you having to hold your kid down while someone sticks him. and he knows that someone is going to stick him..
very sucky moment. They have little temporal awareness they know it is going to hurt and not if it going to stop. You just gotta lie and say it is going to be alright. Which is not really a lie but sorta feels like one.
The Team is looking forward to and reading the upcoming big date here. Inauguration...
We will be fleeing the horde of people and going to Oma and Opa's While I doubt the dooom and gllom predictions that I have heard. Its a four day weekend and if you can avoid the suck why not?

It isn't really a lie.
I had to pin Jr.Gopher#2 down several times when he was 3-4 weeks old due to the urology problems. I found myself saying, "it's alright, it's alright". Which, I quickly realized was not only fatuous and a lie, it was a stupid lie. I switched to "it's going to be okay." this is, after all, not a lie, since it will be okay ... just later. Admittedly a 3 week baby doesn't really have any comprehension of "Later", unlike a 2 year old, who assuredly has figured that "dessert is later" means instant gratification isn't on the menu.
