Mr. Colin has had a rough couple of days. On Saturday he woke up feeling warm. I took his temp and it was 102.5.... I decided to watch it. He went down for his nap fine and woke up feeling much hotter. He temped at 103.5. I gave him motrin at this point and it took the temp right down. The last I took was 100.0. Today is Wednesday and he still isn't really quite himself. Sherry said that yesterday he "cried most of the day"... I was worried that he was gonna be sick when I got him up from his nap and he was GREAT. No temp, no symptoms, nothing... and pretty dang happy. We had a good night, good dinner... bath, playtime, everthing. Both boys slept from 7:15 - 6 am. Colin woke up a little fussy and desperately wanted his binky. I felt bad leaving mom with him but they played out back with bubbles. Colin went to his crib at 8:45 am and acted like he wanted to bed, mom put him in bed and then he got fussy, even wanted to give his binky back. She rocked him and eventually he went down. Cody is acting like his normal, happy, goofy self. What a lover Code has become lately! Hope Colin gets back to his normal happy self soon. He has two teeth coming in on top so at this point, I will chalk it up to that! :0)

Last night Colin had 2 timeouts during dinner for throwing food (he had this look in his eye like he was daring me to actual give him a timeout) and one timeout after dinner for biting. Cody had his first timeout, from me, for hitting Colin. He was devastated and took about 15 mins to recover. Love my boys!

I put up a couple of fall/halloween decorations today. Cody noticed within minutes. He scrunched up his nose, got wide eyes, pointed and grunted at two orange pumpkins I had sitting on top of the entertainment center. He is SO observant, just like his daddy!

The boys had a great day with Grandma and Slim today. They went to the park and ran around and had fun. Tonight Cody pushed dad's laundry basket all the way into his room. I asked Colin to push it back, and he did. What a good listener! I am busy packing for the trail ride. We leave tomorrow with Nonnie as soon as I can get home from school. We will meet dad and grandpa at the site on Saturday morning. Dad, Mom and the boys will spend the night in the forest in the trailer. The boys should have a great time running around in the cool weather.

Mom is watching the boys today and told me that Colin hit Cody on the head with a block, twice. Poor Cod! The boys know some body parts now and can point to them, they know: nose, hair, tummy, eyes and mouth. Last night Cody hit me. I rubbed my head and made sad face. Both boys came over to me, rubbed my head too... both with sad faces.
