Life's tough...


We enjoy going to Disney on the weekends. Sometimes we will stop at a nearby gas station for a coke or a snack. Yesterday evening as we were leaving the park we stopped for a coke. Just as Jeff closes the car door, a little voice from the backseat says "dodah dodah" which is doughnut. I tell Graham that daddy went inside to get a coke and he replies "coke peas coke peas". I offer him his juice and he is so tired he turns it down. By this point he has asked for nunu's to go night-night and I obliged. Jeff gets in the car, and of course has 2 Krispy Kreme's in a bag! Graham IMMEDIATELY notices and again asks "dodah peas dodah peas". Jeff hands him half of his doughnut and he inhales it. Graham asks for "oher dodah" (Other donut) and Jeff hands him the other half. Not 2 minutes later this is the view that we see in the backseat...

Yes...life is hard! (Please do not comment on the seat belt clip...we put it up on his chest when we buckle him in and he slides it down.) There is icing EVERYWHERE!!! Thankfully he just took a nap and let us throw him in the bath when we got home. Poor baby was so tired that he didn't get up until 9:35 this morning!!! And we were home by 7:45 last night!

Graham is very observant. He will point out everything to you and if there are 2 of something he will say "pumpkin. Other pumpkin". It's so cute. He was having a BALL identifying all of the pumpkins at the entrance of Magic Kingdom yesterday!!

We are all doing well!! I have sciatica pretty bad so my bum and back hurt most of the time. But that's a small price to pay for the gift of life we've been blessed with! Miles might be an interior designer when he comes out of the womb; currently his internship involves rearranging all of my organs!! He's not a gentle boy - but that might come in handy when he tries to keep up with his big brother!

Love,

Jeff, Lauren, Graham and Miles
