Hello everyone. I think I figured out why I haven't written in a while - It's all about sleep patterns. I try to get up early (meaning 6am) to take my shower, have my coffee and collect my thoughts before starting my day. The problem is that Maureen has adjusted her body clock to my schedule and is getting up earlier, making Kristin get up earlier as well. Therefore our routines start earlier and I have no time to sit and collect my thoughts (which means I get over it quick.) This good morning I got up at 5:30 and did not immediately get into the shower which, incidentally, is next to Maureen's bedroom. I'm sure I will have plenty of early morning time come late June with the arrival of Baby X (Rowan? Mick? Jasper?)
Anyway, the title of this entry is Recent popular words because Maureen has recently added some funny things to her vocab. She has learned the proper pronunciation of the word yeah and is using it incessantly. I guess it's better than the no referenced in blog date January 22, but we need to start working on the ess sound of yes. Right now she sounds like a teenager.
The other word needs pronunciation help as well - the word sit. She is in the habit of patting her hand on the floor, or on a chair, or anywhere she wants you to sit, but says shit. It is also funny, though she can be a real hardhead in her insisting that you SIT, and SIT NOW, and SIT EXACTLY WHERE I WANT YOU TO SIT. Poor Baby X doesn't have a chance.
And speaking of Babhy X - I was able to feel him moving around for the first time last night. He's real. It's hard for me to focus on him still. It seems less real than I remember at this point with Maureen. We are trying to get his room somewhat ready - our friends DiAne and Troy leant us a crib, changing table and some baby boy decor. The room also has our old full sized bed (did I mention the new King Sized bed? It's worth its own blog entry!!) and a TV in it. The theory behind the bed and TV is for the late night and early morning feedings and cryings.
OK - it's 6:18 - I guess I need to get into the shower and face the day.
