Discoveries

William has discovered that if he can see it, he wants it in his mouth. This includes blankets, toys, dogs, furniture, people, and small appliances. He also has a bit of a temper when he doesn't get to put the dog's head in his mouth. He's also learned how to roll over.

Mary and I aren't prepared for a mobile baby yet. The other night he was on his blanket playing quietly, and the dog had fallen asleep a few feet away. William rolled off the blanket and rolled in front of the dog, at which point he screamed at the dog. I felt pretty bad for poor Libby. She's a real sweet dog who doesn't like loud noises, and our son snuck up and screamed at her while she slept. It was pretty funny though.

I have discovered that William likes to whine and gripe when he's perfectly happy. I think he forgets or doesn't realize he's vocalizing. You go check on him expecting him to be in distress because of all the whining, but he's smiling. Very confusing.

My wife has discovered that you should wash your hand after you put Orajel on the baby's gums. If you don't wash your hands, and then if you pick your nose... Well your nose goes numb and everything smells like cherries.

Hope ya'll had a good weekend.
