   oh another busy day has gotten away from me! and with one hour missing! eek! luckily Jesse still went to bed at normal time tonight - go figure! he was exhausted from obsessing about his balloon (now pronounced BANOON) all day despite the fact that it hasn't floated since he woke up this morning.
   
   So to back up a bit, we went to MA yesterday to have a belated February birthday celebration. Jocelyn was in her element with the present opening! Poor Morgan took a bad fall coming...

   He didn't grow much this quarter - he grew 1/2 in to 30.5 in (25th percentile) and gained 12oz to 21lbs even (5th percentile) - but the doctor said it was fine. Josh got to answer yes to all the developmental questions! yay! Also I had made a list of his words last night to count them up - here they are:
   
   mama
   dada
   bath (BA)
   ball (BAH)
   bottle (BAWH)
   balloon (BLOON)
   cat (CA)
   ut-oh
   na-na for food, any food (derived...

   Whoops - almost forgot to write my update today! I was busy calc'ing all the money I've saved playing the grocery game and sorting through coupons. I also went to Walgreen's, CVS, AND Stop & Shop today. Josh is hitting Shaw's tomorrow. I was hoping for sales on toilet paper this week and VOILA! Now I have 84 rolls of TP. I also really REALLY need to stop buying cereal. REALLY. I had 5x $2off Honey Bunches of Oats with Chocolate Clusters coupons and that cereal was on...

   oh what a week!
   
   So I think we last left off on Monday when I was starting to feel better and Jocelyn was sick and Jesse was getting sick. Well they did indeed take turns getting up all night and I think I counted up my sleep at 2.5 hours - NOT in a row! I still went back to work on Tuesday as I had things I had to tend to. By Tuesday afternoon Jocelyn was starting to feel somewhat better but Jesse was worse and stayed up most of the night and again I...

   Well thanks everyone for the birthday wishes. It was not a very good birthday! I was soooooo sick all weekend! We had to cancel going to MA on Saturday. I could NOT get out of bed Saturday and didn't get up at all Sunday either. I couldn't even eat cake! Plus I couldn't watch the kids long enough for Josh to go buy one anyway. Sore throat, fever, chest cold - I was miserable. Saturday night Josh agreed to get up with Jesse (who has started getting...

   So about a month ago the little light panel thingy on the dash of my car stopped working. Then 2 weeks ago I noticed I was low on antifreeze so last weekend Josh put more in for me. Yesterday I was low again. Being as the car is a 1998, Josh and I both knew what this meant - it was time to get a new car before this one no longer had value! So I am very excited to announce that I bought my very first BRAND NEW car! Happy Birthday to me! I had been looking at...

   That Build a Bear is a smart place. We received in the mail a $5 birthday certificate for Jocelyn so I decided why not, we need another stuffed animal around here! But anyway, she got there and looked over the choices for a while but couldn't decide so I finally had to give her just 2 choices and then she decided easily - a bright pink pepto bismal looking bear. (the other choice was a brown furry bear).
   
   So I hand her the bear and tell her to stand in...

   Once upon a time there was a pretty little princess named Jocelyn who liked to have tea parties. The princess and her mother the queen live in a house of blue and there has not previously been much call for tea parties. But lucky for the princess, Santa had brought her a new porcelain teddy bear tea set. So the queen prepared the tea and some miniature coffee cake on the miniature teddy bear plates and the two of them sat down to tea. They were having such fun...

   Holy good golly it is COLD out!!
   
   So I found some movies from Feb 2001 to July 2001 - so when Morgan was 7-12 months. I watched it all and I gotta say, even now, even REALLY looking, he seems perfectly normal to me (besides being covered in eczema, poor kid). He responded to his name, he did the hand motions to open shut them, he was saying mama ad baba, clapping, making eye contact, playing with balls and cars, army crawling, and generally grunting. There was...

    Today Jocelyn was sitting on Josh's lap and Morgan spontaneously came over to her and hugged her. She LOVED it. So she held her arms out and asked for more hugs ("more hugs Morgan?"). He hugged her again and then touched both her cheeks with his hands. This is how he says he loves you, but it was the first time he had ever done it to her so she was scared. When he let go she looked at me confused and frightened and I told her "Morgan loves you...
