Xander


This is Xander
Xander screams
I shut the door
he screams

I open the fridge
he cruns (fast crawl)
to play
I hurry and close the fridge
he screams

I try to put him in his car seat
He Screams
arches his back
and I have to wrestle him
in

Dr. Justin and Nurse Annie
My favorite medical cousins
who live in
Colorado
suggest sign language
it helps with
frustration

Jeremy and I teach Xander
"MORE"
He learned
He can now tell us when he wants more
of something
more drink
more food

But no
he only hears
more

Like yesterday when I said
"Xander, No MORE screaming"
He looked at me and
signed
"MORE"

Wow! You have done a lot of blogging! Great ideas! I love the picture of the Italians I am going to copy it and use it on my blog.
I love your post about Nie. Wasn't that so brave of her to post a picture? You are exactly right, we should just be so grateful for the skin we are in.
You are so beautiful anyway, you really needn't worry, but I understand what you feel. Yay for daily postings! I hope you can keep it up!
