Day 9 -- Welcome Back, Normal

September 15, 2010

Other than a runny nose and some coughing, things are back to normal here!  Yay!  Jack slept for a lot longer than he has been sleeping and he woke up WILD -- wild and happy, which is just the way I like him.  He bounced all over the house as he ate, he bounced all over as he played, he bounced all over while I tried to clean...so I just gave up and decided to get out of the house to get him some batteries.  He begged and begged to go to Toys R Us for "just one car, PWEEEEEEAAAAASE" and I couldn't resist that, so we went.  Thankfully, TRU had a single car that he didn't already have so I didn't have to spend a fortune, lol.  On the way back, we went to Subway and he did something SOOO funny!

It was lunchtime at Subway and we got there right before the lunch crowd.  There were 3 people in front of us and about 50 behind us.  Jack danced and pranced all over the place and talked to everyone.  He had to tell them "hi" and that they "have to wait their turn", lol.  Everyone was grinning at him and laughing.  It was SO cold in there and he shivered a little bit and I asked him if he was freezing and he said loudly, "I'M FREEZING MY PEEPER OFF!"  I just died!  Everyone is Subway (lots of young guys from the base) just busted out laughing.  My child definately brought down the house.  I have to take the blame for his one because his Pull-Ups have a spot that gets cold when he pees, so I always warn him that it is going to freeze his peeper off if he teetees in his diaper but I never thought he would learn to use that phrase in a different context, haha!!  He is way too smart for his own good!

We got home and he played outside after he ate, chased the cats, kicked dirt, jumped on rocks, etc.  Was just back to being a BOY and it was just so wonderful.  Having a kiddo who is sick for a couple of weeks can really make you appreciate how awesome it is when they are healthy.  He finally passed out around 4:30 while I played "Noodle Jump" (Doodle Jump) on my iPhone for him and he slept until 1:30.  I was kinda hoping he would sleep until around 4:30am but I will take what I can get.  This means that maybe he will take a nap.  I hope!
