Getting Bigger






Both Wade and I are getting bigger every day. I am definitely feeling the effects of pregnancy, and Wade is getting taller and more independent by the minute. He loves telling us to "get up" and to "sit down." This is especially true when we are doing something that is boring to him (eg we're finishing dinner and he's already done and wants to play). He is also repeating everything we say with robotic accuracy. I am making an effort to clean up my language, and since he is such a good repeater, I am rewarded for my efforts every time he repeats a "substitution" that I've chosen. The other day he called a bad driver a "dude" (instead of an asshole) and said "shoot" instead of my usual word of choice. Children must make us better people.

We just had a visit from gma Shelley and gpa Jim, and Wade had lots of fun with them. Here's some newer pictures from his latest exploits on the Niki sculptures at the Botanic Garden.
