Last night, Liam slept from 9pm to 6am!!!! He started crying at 2:30 but I popped his pacifier in and he didn't wake up again til 6! WOOOHOOOOOO! Too bad I was up doing stuff til 1... So I got 5 solid hours (not bad, not bad), but man - 9 would have been beautiful! Let's hope this is a trend!
Eli has been SO much more talkative this week (not that he's not usually talkative!), making long sentences now. I'm in constant shock and awe of the things that come out of his mouth. I love his reasoning and logic for things.... how he uses words that aren't appropriate but make sense. Like today, his music was too low and he wanted us to turn it up.... so he yelled - mommy! loud! :)
Eli's memory is also insaaaaane these days and he really is picking up EVERYTHING we say. Yesterday when we were walking by the fire station (his favorite thing to do), we saw a cat that looked just like Riley. We talked about it for a second and then it was gone and that was that. Well today, when we were walking by, he asked "Hey...where's the Riley cat?" He'll ask about the most random things sometimes and I'm just amazed that he remembers.
I can't teach Eli things fast enough right now. He is taking SO much in and is learning at record speed. This age is exhausting! I'm taking extra care to narrate everything I do.
Eli informed me that he wants Liam to get bigger so they can play baseball together, play basketball together.... and so that Liam can wear shoes, have pockets (???) and sit on the couch. Cuteness. He said a lot of other things to, but I've forgotten them all. My "I have to take mental note of this" function is on the fritz these days. :)
tomorrow is my last day of being 32! I looooved that age. 32 was how old I was when I had Liam! I'm sad to see it go...but eager to see what 33 has in store for me.
