Jammy Time

"Jammy Time" always comes after bath time and there is a little song we sing, "Jammy Time, woo woo, Jammy Time" Ok, so maybe it's more of a chant. Eamon knows the Jammy Time chant and will chant it after bath time. Well, this morning I went to get him dressed and he told me noooo, Jammy Time. So, Eamon went to school today in his jammies (yes they were footy pjs and he had tennis shoes on too.) I sent clothes in case he wanted to or agreed to change . So we'll see what he is wearing when I pick him up today.

All lined up

Ed is working tonight and I had class so my parents watched Eamon until I could pick him up. When I got there this happened:

Eamon pulls two of his (child sized) chairs into the hallway in the dining room and sets them side by side and looks at me and points to one and tells me to "sit down" Then he looks at my dad, points at the other chair and says "Papa sit down" Just then my mom walks by and looks at us like we are a bit strange, meanwhile Eamon is pulling a chair out of the living room and set it next to mine and looks at my mom and points at the chair and says "sit down" He then goes and gets the last chair and sets it next to my dad's and sits in it himself. Ely walks down stairs and Eamon pulls a regular sized dining room chair next to his and tells Ely to sit down. So the 5 of us are sitting down in a row, just then Eamon sees Sparky and says "Pa-E" and starts running to get her (we are thinking he is going to try to put her in a chair too) Ely stops Eamon from getting to Sparky. Eamon then comes back and proceeds to go down the line talking to all of us, addressing us by name. I'm not sure what this was about. But I wanted to write this down to remember it. Too bad we didn't have a picture of all of us lined up.

Update: I spoke with Eamon's teacher this morning about this and she says that they line up the chairs and ask the children to sit down when they are eating and doing activities. So seems he was "playing school" with us.

Baby Kathleen

Eamon's cousin Kathleen was born a few days before Christmas, so when we were in town for Christmas we got to meet her.

A very sleepy dad.

Christmas in Atlanta

Saturday afternoon we did Christmas with Ed's Family.
Eamon had just woken up from his nap and was still pretty sleepy.

Birmingham Christmas

Ed worked Christmas Eve, so Eamon and I stayed at my parents. On Christmas Eve, Eamon was helping Papa sweep leaves off the deck while listening for Santa to come in the firetruck. Santa did come in the firetruck, but Eamon was a little scared with the lights and sirens.We met Ed at Mass Christmas Morning and when we got back to MamaMarie and Papa's House, Santa had come.

Christmas night we changed Eamon into his pajamas and headed to Atlanta.
The new Portable DVD player that MamaMarie & Papa gave him made the ride much easier.

Coming next - Christmas in Atlanta....

2 Year Check-Up

We went for Eamon's 2 year check up on Friday.

He weighs 31 lbs (75th percentile)

36.5" high - (95th percentile)

Everything looks good.

They took his BP and he stood on the big kid scale.

The BP cuff was so little and so cute!

He had to get one shot, but didn't cry too long.

Then he marched out to the nurses station to get his sticker.

I have lots more to say about my sweet 2 year old boy,

but that will have to come in another post.

Happy Birthday Eamon
