November 10th

I don't know why some nights Dominic will sleep straight through and some nights he will wake up 3-4 times. All I do know is that I really like the nights he sleeps straight through. I really feel it the nights where he is up a lot and wonder how I managed for the past 9 months like that!!!

Yesterday we went to the library for story hour and he absolutely loved it. He loved looking at all the other children and listening to the songs, rhymes, and stories. It is an hour a week I really look forward to for him. Aside from the library, we spent two hours outside yesterday. The first hour we were outside Dominic enjoyed pushing his little mail truck all around the yard investigating everything of interest to him. Then he held my hand and we walked around the yard and house. He especially liked the front steps that lead from the sidewalk to the front porch. He would go up and down, up and down. One would have thought it was like an amusement ride. Then, since the weather was still so beautiful (have to take advantage of these wonderful days in Nov. here in upstate NY)I took Dominic for a walk in the cemetery. When we arrived home daddy pulled in and then shortly after so did Grandma Mo.

Thank you Grandma Mo and Pupo! Dominic loves his Christmas outfit, and daddy loves the tie!! (Grandma Mo bought Dominic a Christmas outfit and shirt and tie.) Daddy, Dominic and Grandma Mo had dinner while Mommy got some time to herself and went to the gym.


Aside from yesterday's news, Dominic loves when I sing Mary had a little lamb. He will stop what he is doing and smile. Another thing he loves is the book Room on a Broom. He actually will come over and sit in your lap while you read that story and it is not a short story either! In his room today he pulled the books off his shelf and began reading them to himself (babbling).
