C has been very interested in teeth has Milly was loosing teeth and Teddy was getting teeth.
So he said “When my teeth fall out, baby teeth grow in.”

Teddy is so cuddly and friendly to those he wants to be friendly to. If he likes someone (like Brooke and Ed yesterday) he will reach out to be held, then put his head on their shoulder, then smile, and then reach back for me to take him.

I love summer. Teddy wears only a diaper pretty much all day so I get to cuddle with and feel his soft little baby arms, leggies, and tummy.

At nap time today MJ had gone into take a nap himself as I was putting Charlie down. So I told Charlie we could sneak in and see what Daddy looks like when he takes a nap. I carried him in and he looked and MJ and beamed. He was so thrilled to be going to sleep after his father and to see his father asleep–something I can only imagine he has imagined. As he lay down in his crib he said “Why Daddy wear Daddy shirt (aka collared shirt)? You look at me when I sleep?” All the time my love.

Sometimes Charlie still will out of the blue call Teddy “Mini.” Then he said “Me big mini. Teddy baby mini. Mommy big huge lady.”

C thought he was hilarious this morning when he was petting Teddy on his head. He smiled, laughed, and said “I petting him like a dog.” Teddy was thrilled.

Charlie can now identify instruments in songs. Yesterday we heard a song with a ukulele and he cried “little guitar.” Impressive. Is he a music prodigy? Even though he sometimes says “m and t” at the end of ABCs? He also asks me to sing all the time. Still asks for Boom Boom Pow and often Bob Marley (and out of the blue he will sing to me “Everything little gonna be alright” and smile. He is sooo cute it is killing me.) Except when he tells me to “Stop singing!! I singing!”

I love listening to Charlie’s musings and observations especially when they come from the back seat of the car. He has been very much into asking me to explain everything (which I happily do; I will never tire of answering their questions or explaining to them).
C: “Mommy whatchoo doing?”
Me: “Just hoping into the lane next to us.”
C: “Why? What is lane? Tell me.”
Me: “Lane is a part of the road. See the road has a couple parts. We are in one lane, and next to us is another lane where other cars go, and on the other side are other lanes where cars are going in the opposite direction”
C: “What couple?”
Me: “Some. Like two or three.”
C: “My birthday coming up.”

The other day I said “One second sweet pea.” and He said “I not baby sweet pea, I big boy sweet pea. Teddy baby sweet pea. When him grow up like me be big boy sweet pea.” He is always very thoughtful about Teddy and what Teddy can do like him when he gets bigger. It’s so sweet. They have also started playing together a lot, or at least side by side very interested in the same box of toys or piles of blocks. It warms my heart.
