We were going to the pedia for his scheduled vaccines.
In the taxi, Jethro was constantly turning this way and that, trying to see out all of the windows at once. He was having a fun time, grinning and chortling like crazy.
He had two shots, one on each thigh, poor baby. On the way back home he slept on my shoulder.
Jeremy is a sleep-talker. And also, a sleepwalker. I remember being woken up from a sound sleep by a sudden noise—I saw Jeremy standing up in bed and walking! I took hold of his arm and led him gently back down to the bed. He lay down quietly and curled up on his side, snoring softly. He didn’t even wake up.
At times like these you just will your heart to stop hammering and try to go back to sleep.
Sometimes it could also be amusing. After a long day of shooting ball into a laundry basket, Jeremy went to sleep earlier than usual. I was in bed, waiting to fall asleep.
Just as I was nodding off, he suddenly raises his arms over his head and says very clearly, “Shoot. Ball.”
Then his arms fall back and he goes on sleeping. I smothered my giggles into the pillow. Beat that.

This is the aftermath of a Jethro meal.
Lately he's been happily enjoying a variety of tastes.
New pick: Fish, vegetables and rice. Verdict: Yucky, but he still chows it down.
So-so Eats: Mixed veggies, Cauliflower & Creamed Potato. Verdict: There are leftovers.
All-time Favorite: Banana and wheat/rice cereal. Verdict: Empty bowl.
Jethro loves messing with his food, mealtime is always a fun event. Fingers get all sticky with yellow goo, smears and gobs of it on face, knees, bib, shirt, stroller, and of course, me.
And when Mama is a little slow with the next spoonful, watch
out—Jethro will chew on his foot!
