Happiness today (and yesterday)...

1-When Thatcher laid his head down on the stair where the sun was shining in. If he is anything like his mom, that spot on the stairs will become his favorite spot in the house because of how warm and sunny it always is.
2-Watching James smile in his sleep.
3- Convincing Thatcher to let go of Mater so he could hold on to the swing at the park. That was easy enough, the hard part was letting go of Lightning McQueen. I finally convinced Thatcher to hold Lightning between his legs so he could use both hands to hold on to the swing. It was hilarious.
4- Hearing the ladies at the gym daycare tell me they had never seen a little kid more excited than when they pulled out the Cars playmat this morning. They said he screamed, jumped up and down, pointed, laughed and then did all those things over and over again.
5- When Thatcher handed me a diaper and then got out the wipes and a changing mat (which I never use) and laid on the mat perfectly still until I came and changed his diaper (which was perfectly dry).
6- Watching Thatcher play with his cars. He has been lining them up for a while when he plays, but the lines have gotten significantly longer this week.
7- Going to James's 4 month appointment today. He had a growth spurt in his height and his head is in the 90th percentile. He was so sweet and happy throughout the appointment and barely cried when he got his shots...such a sweetheart.
8-Homemade Cafe Rio salad that we had for dinner. It was a lot of work and made a big mess, but it was worth it!
9- Sitting outside on our little stoop with Thatcher and looking through a bag of goodies his Nursery teacher left him. I read him the note she wrote and he got really excited...especially when I let him eat all the treats she put in there.
10- The thought of bed. James woke up at 3:30am last night, cried for an hour, then I fed him, then Ty got up....needless to say, I didn't get much sleep.
