BAC Taco?
We’ve recently started trying harder to give Graham the same food we’re eating at mealtime. Last night we fixed chicken soft tacos, and Kristi asked Graham if he’d like one. He said yes, which was a surprise.
But Graham asked specifically for a banana, apple, and cheese taco! Hey, whatever, as long as he eats what he asks for, right? The good news is he did eat it all; he even picked it up like a regular taco (at least for a few bites).

Last night we were sitting on the sofa relaxing after dinner, and Graham asked to see my wedding ring. So I took it off and let him look at it.
As he turned it over and tried it on, Graham asked me lots of questions, why is it gold, etc. I told him it was a special ring because Mommy gave it to me, etc. Then I told him that maybe when he grows up, a girl will give him a ring like that. He said:
“No, Daddy, a boy will give me a new ring!”
Right.

This morning, I’m sitting here working and Graham brings me a picture of Kristi from high school. I keep that picture because Kristi still looks exactly the same; she’s one of those girls who doesn’t really need makeup, one who ages gracefully, and has beautiful skin. Anyway, in the picture Kristi is wearing some “dangly” earrings and Graham says to me:
“Daddy, here’s a picture of Mommy. But she has bird poop on her head.”

For a long time now, we’ve wrapped Reid up at naptime and at night in The Miracle Blanket©, which I lovingly call the `Baby Straight Jacket`. We bought this thing when Graham had such bad colic and acid reflux; it helped calm him and keep him snuggly at night. Anyway, it has helped Reid too for a long time.
The problem is, he’s getting too big for it, now that he’s 6 months old. According to our pediatrician, he’s old enough now to put himself to sleep and stay asleep at night. So we began Ferberizing him help him adjust to sleeping on his own. It ain’t going so well. The first night, little guy screamed and cried for more than 4 hours. We’re on night 3 now, and he’s getting progressively better (thank goodness).
Reid let us know how he feels about the process just today, on the way home from lunch!
We’ll keep trying.

Last Friday, Kristi took a shower but didn’t fully dry her hair. She was hurrying to get Graham deposited at school. When she came out to the living room where the boys and I were playing, Graham said:
`Mommy, what happened to your hair?`
Nice. If you didn’t get the Cojo reference, read this.
