Rob and I like to use the phrase "Captain Obvious" a lot- I think I actually got that off an episode of The O.C. Anyhow, it comes in handy whenever the other says something dumb and well, obvious. So when I saw the "Captain Adorable" onesie at Target last week, I just had to get it. I think it's my favorite onesie so far- Rob's too.
We've had some tough times around here lately. Rex turned two months old yesterday which meant a visit to the doctor for a check-up and getting some nasty shots. The poor guy got a whopping 5 shots in his legs. He cried and screamed and so I cried too. Rob was the strong one and helped us both get through it. I don't want him to get any of those horrible illnesses so he had to get them but I wish there was an easier way to do it. He slept quite a bit in the afternoon which meant last night was not so much fun because Rex was not very tired. I think I got about 3 hours of sleep. He has been doing very well lately with sleeping- stretches of 5+ hours- but yesterday was an exception.
It seems like I have noticed a lot of changes in Rex over the last week. He's starting to talk a little, sleep better and his personality is starting to come through. It's so fun to watch all that happen. He made a big breakthrough this week with his swing- we had tried it several times and his reaction to it was never that great. However, when I put him in it on Monday, it was suddenly the greatest thing ever. He had a huge smile on his face and was talking to it and just having the best time. I think he can see a lot better now and part of what he was enjoying so much was the mobile, which I don't think he even noticed before. I took a picture but since he was swinging, it's a little blurry.
The other tough thing is that I go back to work next week. Rob and I both hate it, but I have to work for another year. So Rex starts day care on Monday with a wonderful lady but it still sucks. And going back to work sucks. Bleh is all I have to say.
