ian is 8 months old today! to celebrate, he decided to wake up at the crack of dawn and not go back to sleep. needless to say, i don't approve of this type of celebration, and feel that a more appropriate celebration would be to sleep in. we've agreed to disagree on this.
current likes: eating, big sister's toys, getting into anything he's not supposed to, showing us our childproofing flaws, baths, going in the van, big sister's room, pretty much big sister anything.
current dislikes: getting his diaper changed, face-planting on the floor, getting his face wiped, sleeping past 6am (or 5:15 in the case of today).
the sleeping thing has improved slightly, but not in the way i wanted it to. he had been waking up in the middle of the night to eat, then sleeping till 6 or so. now, the middle of the night feeding is pretty much gone, and it has been replaced by getting up earlier, and usually not going back to sleep after feeding. i.don't.like.it. not one bit. brian and i have a complicated system of who gets up with him on certain days and who gets to sleep in...obviously, today is my day up with him.
the good news is that he's a very happy baby. still very mellow and laid-back. although he has developed a new sound of happiness that sounds remarkably like a pterodactyl. that part's not so mellow.
i'll add a pic to this later, once the day has gotten going a bit more.
oh, and i also wanted to add that abby has acquired another imaginary friend to join the ranks of sarahpaula, roto, and hinko. this new one is named janie two-later. i don't quite know where that name came from, but it's pretty funny. janie calls on the phone a lot, and they have some pretty in-depth conversations that i'm not privy to.
