March 6, 2011

Sunday:

Today was church and then Grandpa and Grandma Linda came over to watch the kids while I went to an orientation for a Doula group here in Austin. I think Liam had a lot of fun. Grandpa always puts everything on his head and calls them 'hats'. Liam thinks this is hilarious and for days out will mimic this behavior. I find it sweet. Every time someone knocks on the door, even when Liam does, Liam says "Who's knocking on that door?" I say "I don't know, who is knocking on that door?". "Grandpa knocking on that door!". We laugh.

Tonight was also the first night as well that he went to bed, with no crying and no getting out of bed. We have put up a baby gate in front of his door so when he gets up, he can't wander the halls. At first we thought this was cruel to be honest, but then realized it's really quite more humane than him still being in a crib, which most kids his age are. So we felt better. He then noticed that he could stand there and gibber gabber and us ignore it (not if he was crying of course), that he'd eventually get tired and tuck himself back in bed. I hoping this keeps up. He seems to wake in a better mood when he goes to bed peacefully. I know I do.
