Oh me oh my

Here are two pics of Brady, one from the spring of 2007 and one from this summer 08.

Today is the first day that Brady has gone to sleep without his paci. He cried for 20 mins then finally fell asleep. Tonight, Brady yelled for about 40 minutes but finally fell asleep. He was sitting in his chair yesterday watching Handy Manny and Ang and I laughed at how funny he looked still having that thing in his mouth. He looked so big with that tiny thing in his mouth. Ang said that strangers probably wonder why the twins are so different developmentally. One is talking and running around while another one is grunting with a paci, running around.

Jackson skinned his knee on Friday and has been quite the dramatic boy. He would not walk on Friday after he did it. He would whine and cry if we made him stand up or move. He had not pooped and I think that was also making things worse for him. Saturday evening he still had not pooped for a couple days and you could see how big his belly was getting. He tried to poop for 30 mins but nothing happened. He ended up getting some Baby Fleet which cleaned him out quickly. After seeing what was clogging him up, I could see why that was painful for him.

Back to his limp... It was funny and frustrating at the same time to see how he thought he needed to walk with his knee. At times he would be hunched over walking slowly as he would say then three seconds later he would run around a little then go back to his old man walk. It is safe to say that I know what he will look like walking around when his is an old man. As long as his knee was covered up he would be ok but if he say his knee he would be hurting all over again.

Today, Jackson finally decided that he could walk without a limp from his knee injury so we went to 'Kethcup Park' and Lowes for some sand for his sandbox. J and B both loved climbing up and down the lawn mowers and pushing the cart. Brady only hit himself a couple times after we made him leave the tractors.
