At Home With Grandma

The little man was out of sorts today. He was constipated and didn't know what he wanted. Sometimes he wanted to be held, but other times he didn't want anything to do with Papa and Grandma. He was intermittently sobbing and must have been exhausted because he took a handful of short 15 minute naps. Needless to say, they stayed home for the day. Shortly before Natalie came home, Eric had a big poop. Apparently he came downstairs all smiles and full of energy. That's the way I saw him when I got home.

Grandma read books, did puzzles, and played with Eric's toys today. In this picture, they are putting together Eric's Thomas glow-in-the-dark puzzle. After they finished, we turned out all the lights and oohed and aahed over the glowing puzzle.

Eric was again refusing to get ready for bed and brush his teeth. Tonight he said, "Big boys don't brush their teeth." Of course we told him that is completely untrue. Then he said, "Anthony doesn't brush his teeth." That isn't true either. If anything, Anthony takes care of his teeth better than anyone else in the family. He did such a great job of taking care of his teeth while he had braces, after all.

Speaking of Anthony, his Junior Varsity team won their game tonight 7-0. Anthony got some play time, which always makes him happy. They were dominating enough that apparently, their coach told them to just pass the ball around at the end so they wouldn't run up the score anymore. His next game is on Friday.

Hopefully Grandma will get to go outside of the house tomorrow.
