Midnight Ramblings

I think I need to rename this blog. Naptime around here usually means that Sammy is napping and Max is playing, so there's really not time to update the blog at all. I'm finding the only time I ever update is when I am up in the middle of the night. At this very moment I am very ticked that I am not asleep. Sammy is inexplicably awake after multiple attempts at getting him to fall back asleep around 11 p.m. I made Matt get up and take him downstairs to let hm burn off some energy, but then I could still hear him and was so annoyed that I just KNEW I was going to be woken up within an hour to put him back down that I just stayed up. Matt was still here and trying to feed Sammy and that's when I learned he can now say two words! He can say "Mama" (or rather, "Mamamamamamamama") and "more". Although "more" sounds like "ma". It's definitely his word for "more", though.

It's funny that he's beginning to talk so early. He just turned 7 months. I remember Max said "Mama" for the first time when he was a year old. We taught him some signs and he signed a lot of his most common words til he was closing in on two. We've tried teaching Sammy signs and he's not as into it as Max was. However, he can sign "milk" when he wants to. Priorities.

Well, I hope you are all sleeping soundly and I hope I am too very soon.........
