Arthur’s first haircut (at a haircut place)

Art and I went on a bike ride to go and see me get my haircut. Afterwards, I asked Arthur if he wanted to get his hairs cut, and he said yes. A really nice woman cut his hair, and he told her lots of funny things. like, "I can see my Papa in the mirror!" or "LeVar went down the hill and he screamed!" (that's LeVar from reading rainbow). And "You almost cut me ear!" He was so quiet and gentle and patient. really made me happy to watch him get his all his hairs cut. This photo is from my cell phone.

Solid Food!

Yesterday I gave Lewis solid food three times, breakfast, lunch and dinner.  Banana for breakfast, rice cereal for lunch and squash for dinner.  Meanwhile, Art was have tofu and asparagus for dinner and at first picked all the asparagus out.  Then he said, mid-meal, "I like asparagus!"  What a good day of eating for the boys.

2 IPM

Just wanted you all to know that Lewis is able to scoot forward in a sitting position at a rate of about 2 IPM (Two Inches Per Minute).  He would very much like to be able to pull himself up to standing but that's a little way off yet.  If I stand him up against the coffee table he will stop kvetching and focus on pulling books off the table, however I need to keep my hand close by because he is too wobbly to do this by himself.  That is the report.

Jessica’s irritants

I’m sitting here at work and just received this great e-mail from jessica:

Irritant: Finding marbles and bouncy balls everywhere Solution: Never buy millions of the same thing just for the hell of it again!

Irritant: Coins on the floor in every room of the house
Solution: Put your coins in a bowl or container WITH EDGES as soon as you get home so they stop pooping themselves all over the house. Those coins on the floor are coming from you. As far as I know I am not the coin pooper because I put my change in the change part of my wallet.

Irritant: Getting hit and screamed at by Art.
Solution: unknown.

These are my major irritants right now. Please do your part to alleviate the first two. Must find solution for the other soon!!!!
