Long Time No See...

What have I been doing? I'm not sure.

A recap, both for myself and whoever might be reading this...

• Teeth: Galen has 4, the front top & bottom. The two eye teeth are getting so very close to breaking through.
• Mobility: Crawling is now second nature, he'll chase me, Shanna, or even the dogs. And of course the dogs think it's their style of play, must be careful.
• Mobility 2: Crawling is often a way to get to something else to pull himself up too. The bed, cabinets, doors, tables, chairs, dogs, 'fridge, whatever.
• Water bowl: The playful splash he likes to do in the bath and pool also translates to fun in the doggie waterbowl. We have to keep a close eye *& ear our for that trespass.
• Vocabulary: Nope, no speech yet. But he now make the tongue-to-roof-of-mouth clicks.
• Baby signs: His first sign was last week for "bird". It musta been an easy one, it's about the same movement needed to pick up Cheerios.

School's in session.Shanna's in evening classes Monday through Thursday. On Friday night, it's her night to be with us, Galen loves this. The weekend is mixed, it's her chance to get homework done, not much time during the week. Hopefully she gets enough completed to spend Sunday night with us. It's a tough road to wander, but eventually it'll be done. No matter what, in every stage of life, if one wants to improve a sacrifice must be made. And it never gets any easier.
