E had a high temperature for 4 days and didn’t want to eat much. We spent time watching movies and just hanging out on the couch.

One day he took a nap with me (until I had to go to the bathroom and get something to eat) and then he finished his nap with Joey.

He doesn’t normally sleep with us so it was kind of nice to cuddle with him – even if he was burning up.

I love my silly man

E is a little parrot and will copy a lot of what he hears. When Joey says “you are a little parrot”, E says “little parrot”.

Today we practiced saying “Happy Mother’s Day” and E was able to say “Happy Muffer’s Day” so I posted this on Facebook:

My cousin Jon’s comment made me laugh. Little does he know that I try really hard not to be E’s speech therapist.

I took E with me to my dinner club and he had fun playing on the baby’s bumbo chair.

Here’s a video of him playing with/on the bumbo chair:

Note: Daddy dressed him in the outfit he is wearing.

The other day we went to IKEA to find E a small table and chairs and he had fun playing with the cart (with Joey’s help)

and a video of course

This is a picture of a notepad full of letters to E. I am so glad I started this and hope to continue for a very long time. I just wish I would have started on nicer paper/pad.

I am now wondering what I should do with these letters – put them in envelopes and label them with the date? Put them in envelopes with some of my favorite pictures? Just keep them in the notepad? Do I need to buy a box to keep them in that I can give E when he is bigger? Anybody have any ideas for me?

Blog Update:

I have not been very motivated to blog (or even take pictures) since Picnik disappeared. It really is sad how much it has affected me. Ask Joey. BUT, Joey has been trying to help me come up with a picture editing solution so I can blog again. Remember this post? Anyway. I like PicMonkey (probably because it is so similar to Picnik) but it doesn’t have the capability of picture collages (yet). And isn’t that why you read my blog anyway? Just kidding.

Hopefully there will be more posts to come! Stay tuned.
