That baby of mine sure knows how to have fun. Every night, the Husband and I play with him on the floor and he has so much fun that he wears himself out and he's ready for bed. He loves his baby Harley. He's finally figured out how to push the peddle with his foot to take off. (it doesn't go fast) "Vrrrroom!"
Just Baby and the open road.
This is the new shirt we picked up at Target. He was going to wear it on his birthday but I couldn't resist putting it on him with his gray skinny baby jeans. He peed on the jeans and so we switched them out for comfy Gap sweat pants. For his birthday outfit, I picked up a really cool and very cute bright blue and white button up shirt. Also from Target.
Sweet Baby face.
Baby tickles.
Tired out! Baby Jack sat with Husband and watched TV for a little bit while I fixed his cereal and bottle. He didn't squirm or grab at the remotes- he just sat quietly, like a mature little boy. Eventually he became sleepy.
Looking at these pictures makes me miss hardwood floors. They just look so much nicer! I haven't lived in a house with carpet in over 10 years. The carpet is really appropriate for baby play though. He rolls around and falls down on it and doesn't get hurt! Someday when Baby and his baby sister (no, she's not here yet and no i'm not preggers again) are bigger and we have the money, I really, really want wood floors. Or that house down the street that looks just like ours (flat roof) only bigger! I would take that instead of the floors.
So I am in possession of some almost finished Bulletproof Tiger songs. If you would like to hear them and give me feedback, please email me at festivalcityfilms@hotmail.com and i'll email you a song or two. I'd like to hear what other people have to say- good or bad.
Lately I just haven't been my usual self. I'm tired for no reason, I throw up a lot for no reason, I'm moody, have headaches. (No, i'm absolutely not pregnant!) I'm pretty sure I'm either sick and dying or just stressing. I wish I had more time to work on things i love. Music being the biggest thing with photography and art following. It's so frustrating! Oh yeah! Also, for the past few weeks i've been having lucid dreams. Lots of them. It makes my brain so tired by the time i wake up. Sometimes they are positive dreams where I can control everything and sometimes they are bad dreams where I know I'm dreaming and can't wake myself up. I had a dream this morning that Husband and I were getting married in 1 day and I didn't have anything planned or a dress or anything. It's a reoccurring dream i've had about different occasions since i was a child. Sometimes it's halloween and I'm searching for a costume? Prom and I'm searching in some crappy store for a dress? It's kind of funny. Wonder what it means.
Also, I think it would do me good to spend a nice evening with Husband. When we go to dinner, one of us doesn't get to eat because we have to entertain a one year old and make sure the salsa and sugar packets are out of his reach. We really want to see a movie but it's impossible to find someone who will babysit him in norman long enough for us to go see one. When we do go out, friends are usually along for the ride, which is also fun, but it would be nice to hang out one on one.
This post is really random, I know. My brain is very unfocused today. Going to bathe baby and we're going to get out of this house. Baby always makes me feel better about everything. Especially when he gives me baby kisses.

Here are the things that I want in your post:
ReplyDeleteBaby J to be Leo's bestest
That Motorcycle
Baby J shirt - I have quite a few robot shirts but you can never have to many. Also, I'm totally amazed by how cute Target's stuff is!
Here's my interpretation of your dream:
You feel a sense of urgency, I mean that's pretty clear right? However, you may be subconsciously aware that the thing you feel urgency for is not only out of your hands but also sometimes better being far away. Like the anticipation or wanting or thinking about it might be better than the actual day? Subconsciously? maybe? I'm not very good at this, sorry!
Baby J and Baby Leo should totally be friends! Jack loves other kids but isn't around them much. He likes to share and chase.
ReplyDeleteThe robot shirt was like, 6 dollars! just wait one week and jack will have grown out of it and we'll give it to Leo!
I think you are right on about the dream. Last night I dreamt that Jack was on a rickety wooden bridge and it was raining really hard and there were rapids below him. He was trying to crawl to me but he slipped and fell through into the water. I jumped in to get him and he was screaming "momma! momma!" and I couldn't reach him. It was terrifying. I woke up at 3am and didn't go back to sleep for a couple of hours. Of course I went into his room, just to look at him. I think that was just about parenthood being completely terrifying and worrisome. And maybe i don't feel competent enough or something. Does any parent? Sigh.
Ok, you've inspired me. I'm going to throw a baby party here soon. Maybe in early Feb.
ReplyDeleteI know at least 2 other babies around Jack's age (a little younger, he'll be like the cool older guy).
I hate hate hate bad dreams about babies. It makes me worry for weeks.
