Some Des tid bits

if you look closely you can see his eyes don't look like he's healthy. He's not. The whole morning before this was filled with crying, watching TV, and refusing to eat (which means somethings definitely wrong if this kid doesn't eat). He was sick. We spent the night previous together trying to scrape together some sleep. He liked to sleep on my stomach like a baby. a big 30 lb baby....


Since we haven't had any Des updates in a while, I figured I'd do that today!

Some things he loves:  CARS. CARS. CARS. the movie and also the objects. Loves them to pieces. He drives something around constantly and watches the movie every evening while mom is cooking dinner (the preschool teacher in me is SHRIEKING with horror. the mom in me tells the preschool teacher to shove it. Ever cooked dinner with a 30 lb child wanting to be held/to help/to play/to get attention that isn't in the kitchen? Yeah.)

Some other things he loves: Elmo, Bob the Builder (calls it "Tractors"), and Curious George. I'm noticing a TV pattern here... yes, he loves cartoons. even knows to call them that. So we have to limit his viewing time. A lot. But we're trying.   :D

Foods he loves: PIZZA! Its kinda funny how kids discover pizza and they're sold. Also loves the other toddler staples: chicken nuggets, hotdogs, chips. I also recently discovered he likes apples whole. No cutting/peeling necessary.  Des also loves grapes, oranges, oatmeal (ever since grandpa started eating it too), crackers with cream cheese, and his all-time favorite FRUIT SNACKS!! He even does a jig for fruit snacks. Its pretty funny.

And now its time to go play!
