Recent Man Things

Recently, I've been putting the man to bed most every night as Lindsey is feeling less and less active at night. At first he was reluctant to let me, but now (about a week in) he prefers it - which of course I love. I have to make sure the light is on in his room a few minutes before night night time in order for the stars on his ceiling to glow. When I walk in there with him, turn on the fan and sit down he says in his man accent "Staoowws". And we look at them for awhile before actually going to sleep. It's great.

Yesterday he started this thing...we were trying to pump him up about eating lunch so Lindsey said "Wanna eat a hotdog?" and it started.
"HOT DOG, HOT DOG, HOT DOG, HOT DOG, HOT DOG, HOT DOG, HOT DOG, HOT DOG"
Today he did it again, and we weren't even eating hotdogs! But its really realy cute.

What else...oh. Well tomorrow is Easter so Lindsey went out and got us men some candy and treats. She got me chocolate and the man well so chocolate but also this really awesome bubble blower that looks like a little baby dragon. Last night we broke open all these things because we can't wait around here. It's not that we're impatient, its that we like giving too much. So...we were eating some M&M's and the man was handing them out to me and Linz and then all the sudden he turns around to the dragon, opens his mouth and puts an M&M in the little mouth hole where the bubbles come out. Lindsey and I looked at each other and just sighed in awe of his cuteness and wonderfulness.

He's growing up before our eyes and its really great. I wonder sometimes if I spend enough time with him. I work a lot, just like a lot of dads, in hopes of taking our family to a better place. I'm home every night, even if for a few hours. I love wrestling with him. He loves it too. I hope he is content with his little life, I think he is.
