It was a long weekend in the Larkin house. Max was sick, so we spent most of our time at home juggling the two little ones. However, we did manage several moments of cuteness to share with the world.
Yet again this week, our world involves some not-so-pleasant bodily functions that kids, especially those confined to diapers, are prone to having from time to time. Since we talked quite a bit about similar issues last week, I'll just say that Max had some really, really bad diapers this weekend and into Monday. We felt so bad for our little man. He was his usual happy self for the most part, but was kept on a very limited and bland diet, so he was extremely pale by end of the weekend.
(Note from Jon: POOP! POOP EVERYWHERE! EVERYWHEEEEEEERE!)
Even with Max's illness, we managed to have some good times here at the house over the weekend. Max played quite a bit, while Owen simply laid around and looked cute. Over the course of the weekend, we realized that Max is picking up new words left and right. We'll definitely have to start watching what we say carefully, so we don't teach him anything he shouldn't repeat!
(Note from Jon: I will not teach him to say "POOP EVERYWHERE!")
-- Jon takes over, since we've been too busy to have one person finish a whole entry --
I just asked Christy if we had much of anything else happen this week, and we both seemed to agree that not much is going on beyond trying to get into the old patterns. Sleep, change, feed, swaddle, walk around, sleep a little, change, feed, swaddle, walk around, sleep, wake up the big guy, eat, feed, swaddle, etc. Lots and lots of fun, really.
We did find out a few things. First, Max is no longer completely averse to wearing hats.
Second, he will not complain if you put him in a box.
Third, he gets very tired after several days of cream of wheat, applesauce, bananas, and pedialyte.
As for Owen...well, he's just chilling for now.
Since we don't have much more than that (the rest of the pictures can be found here), we thought we'd try to catch up on some of our video backlog.
Tickle Nan
Just a little moment of fun from our week with Nan.
Delicious!
He's learning Spanish, too.
What do you say?
He does this every time he wants something.
Wheeee!
Whatever makes him happy, I guess...
See you next week!

An item that I think is absent from these arguments is the associations between being a parent, technologies and the expectations of privacy balanced against all the risks around. I'd personally enjoy seeing a lot more people increase knowledge of these problems.
