happenings

this week, finn...
::developed a bit of a tremolo as a part of his whine, resulting in what sounds like a bleating sheep, which is ever so very entertaining.
:: rolled off the ottoman for the first time. for the last 8 & 1/2 months, we've placed finn on the ottoman to change him out of his bunting and this morning, in the midst of epic breakfast preparations, ::he finally took a digger off of it. I guess it's time to lower the mattress in his crib.
:: has learned to clap (and maybe wave?).
:: discovered how to fill up and empty a cup in his bath, and that if it floats off to the foot of his tub, he can kick with his feet, and it will float back to him.

and oh yeah, i almost forgot...

finn SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT
(insert happy dance here)
he went down at 7:00 - his normal bedtime - and i headed up around 9. the next thing i knew, it was after 6am and i had just had 9 hours of uninterrupted sleep and WOKEN UP ON MY OWN for the first time since last summer.


the question now is:
why am i still yawning?
