The little things that make us happy.

Here's the blog post, i've been meaning to do in a while. it's been over a month since my last post, and i have so much to write. this may have to be 2 different posts.

Xander, is the smartest, little stinker. I bet, if i didn't spoil him so much, he'd learn even faster. But i can't help it.
He's learned to crawl, and he's pulling himself up to a stand on some things. and he's a gorilla sometimes. walks on his tipi toes and hands. it's adorable. He chases missy around the whole house. she hates him. well, maybe not hate. But she hasn't figured him out.
Xander, gets so excited, when he sees himself in the mirror. He always, hits the mirror and gets all happy. it's the best. I'll record it sometime.
He only sleeps...20-45 min at a time. Which, sometimes i'd love a little more time to get something done. You know? But..i'm grateful, in a way. Sometimes, when he's sleeping, i miss him..and want him back awake. So...
then... i think, there are some kids, that give their mom, an  hour nap a day, and are running amok the rest of the day. So..thank goodness xander takes like, 4 naps a day. phew!
Today, he's a little clingy, i just put  him down, and he'll start screaming. and then, i pick him up, and he's so snugly, and, he just quiets after hugging me so tight. It's kinda sweet. 
He's discovered, mom will share food with him sometimes. So what happens is, if i get a drink, (mostly bottles) he watches me drink it, and makes as close as the noises and movements i make, to try and get some. It's adorable. I need to record that too. Don't you wish, someone was always on us with a video camera? I do. To capture the adorable things i know i'm going to want to remember. I miss xander when he was smaller. :(( Sometimes, i want to go back, and see how it would have been had i tried certain things with him? Like, i'm trying to get him to sign "more" and i'm just not consistent. I'm horrible at it :(
Anyway, i'm loving this whole...not having to work thing. It's so wonderful. I always thought i'd be bored...(which i am) but not nearly as bored as like, when i was 10 years old and had no tv or something electronic to keep me company. I love being bored with just xander. He's always doing something new, or keeping me company. He's my cute guy. Which, btw..he answers, to a few things... like, "Hello...or LIttle stinker, or..bubba, or little bubs or my little love" It's funny. People are like, you call him that? He knows that that's him? Yeah...he knows he's my little love. :) I have this one friend, Donovan, who i honestly, underestimated with his power to be any sort of paternal...but he's so cute with xander. And xander loves him. It's great. I just wish the people i really should be close to, would try and be closer with xander and me. Like my dad. I know he means well. But he still hasn't met xander. and, that does kinda put a damper on things. I wish he would. It's lame. Well, xander officially has 3 teeth. His 4th, the top left tooth is Trying to break through,but not quite there yet, and then the little stink, still doesn't have much hair. But i mohawked it yesterday anyway. ;) Stay tuned for a post i've been trying to put together...talk to ya soon!
