Whew! I am worn out. Good day. Spencer is pointing more and more for choices. I put a pick of all his favorite TV shows on the TV and let him tell me which one he wanted to watch. Not surprisingly, we watched LE twice and then Cars. He actually pointd (index finger out) to Cars at the end of the night. The rest of the day was more of an arm extending with his index finger towards or actually touching his thumb. With the M&M's once he tried to grab them (they were right in front of him) and I said, no don't grab point and he did. WooHoo!!! And we were passing cars back and forth, once initiated by him even. We were playing with colored pencils and markers and I convinced him to color a little bit, though mostly he was just trying to get the tops off the markers. The only bad thing was that he wasn't responding to his name very much. He was following commands, and even answered no,no,no and shook his head when I asked him repeatedly if he was hungry. But he was just being beligerent with respect to the name answering. I even had ot put him in time out once for a minute. I told him no about something and he was swatting at the markers that were laying around him. I said do it again and your going to time out. He did it again and he went to time out. He didn't like it. And he had just started saying up, up, up when his time was up. I've always alleged that once he realized that by sticking his finger out towards something, a little light bulb would go on. He's all of a sudden see that he can have what he wants and not just what is offered to him. I think that his happening right now. He was really whiny today every time he wanted/needed something and couldn't get it. I think it may be break through time. I'm not getting all worked up though, because I'm not going to freak out if a break through doesn't happen.
Rachel is not feeling well. She slept a lot today. She didn't eat much either. She ate a bunch of oatmeal for breakfast, but then didn't even whine for a bottle before going back to sleep. Then she didn't finish her next bottle, then she threw up the vast majority of her last bottle. And had several very bad poopies. Maybe we need to cut out the solids for a few days. I was thinking already that she wasn't her usual fiesty self and then she puked everywhere. Not baby spit up, puke and lots of it. Poor little thing.
Mike is giving me cause for concern. I came across an email the other day from a dating website that said it was giving him his password. Well I looked into it and he registered Feb 12th. And requested his email the other day apparently. So I told him about it, not accusing, but letting him know that I knew. Let it go. Then tonight he tells me that he got another email from them and that he tried to go and delete his account, but couldn't. Even screwed up the name of the site as he told it too me. This from the man that can map his childhood by what TV shows were on from when to when (and I mean both time adn day of week and from what year to what year.) He doesn't forget things. And I just went to the website. It took me about 2 minutes to find out how to delete the account. And he in fact did not, as he said, turn off all email correspondence. That is bad. I want to trust him, but I don't want to be stupid either.
