Elliot's teeth

Elliot now has five teeth, two on the bottom and three on the top. They all sprouted through after four days of seeing the first.

He has also started screaming out of anger. . often. . .especially when Connor is trying to look at a toy that Elliot is interested in.

Logan's Funny School Days

Logan is finishing his final week before Spring break and they are celebrating by dressing goofy each day. One day is hat day, p.j. day, duct tape day, etc. . .

So Logan tells Kevin that he doesn't want to do duct tape day because duct tape makes him nervous. Kevin asked why and Logan said that duct tape would hurt if it got on his skin and that he didn't want it to rip out his arm hair because "he's been growing that hair for a while."


I had an appointment scheduled and the lady called Logan's phone and left a message. He asked me if I could have her only call my phone because "her message startled him." Then he said, "Wouldn't you be startled too if you heard a message from someone you didn't know?"

Elliot's development

Elliot found his anger and jealousy this week. I took a pretzil rod from him (that Connor gave him while I was out of the room) and Elliot threw a tantrum. He laid on the floor, hid his eyes in his arms, and wailed. He did the same whenever he saw me holding my foster-neice Gianna.

Logan - American Idol

"Mom. Seriously. You might see me on this show one day. Be ready for it."

Also, one of the judges said that Adele was being channeled by one of the preformances.

Logan says, "A dell? What? Like a computer just grew legs and arms and is dancing around on stage? That's ridiculous!"

Connor

Connor got up today when I was in the shower. He walked into the living room, clicked on the t.v., then went and hid by his rocking chair. The t.v. wasn't set right, so it was black. Connor passed out on the floor for another hour. I had to search to find him.

Pictures

Connor cried because he wanted to leave with Kevin when he was taking Logan to school and then going to work. Logan cried because he wanted to stay with me when Kevin was taking him to school. We finally got both boys settled and this is how the day went:

I took the two boys (Connor and Lio) to get pictures taken at 12 at Kiddie Kandids. Connor was afraid of the bright light and kept his eyes covered with his hands. The lady said to give her high five, and he did with his right hand. Then he gave her high five with the other hand, after recovering his right eye. So she said that he should give him five with both hands, and he did. . but he moved his entire head with his hands to do it so that his eyes are still fully covered.

Lio cried the entire visit. . unless I was holding him. I ended up canceling and rescheduling, but my mom took him and had me leave to try once more. He finally sucked it up and got his pictures, but his face is all red and teary.

As soon as we left, Connor and Elliot were perfectly happy and content and didn't cry or fuss the rest of the day.

Elliot

Elliot started crawling at the beginning of last week and now does the commando crawl across the floor. He has also cut his first tooth as of yesterday! It popped through the bottom right side.
