Purple Blob

Mrs. Anne (Spencer's nanny) needed the day off today so Spencer and I got to spend the day together! Spencer is recovering from a nasty stomach bug and seems to be on the mend but poor thing, he has been SICK. Meme suggested we try some jello. After trying SEVERAL flavors of Gatorade-we found that Spencer likes the purple Gatorade the best. So I thought he would enjoy purple jello. The following two videos are of him investigating some jello (purple blobs). I did manage to get one bite in him and looked like a wet dog shaking off water-he did this whole body shake and spit it out. Again-why couldn't I get THAT on video.... What I did manage to get was Spencer saying "cookie"!!! Being the speech therapist that I am, we turned the camera off to practice. The second video is more "cookie" moments. My child is a genius (beside the fact that he refused to say Meme!) He is such a turkey...

Sloppy Joes...Slop, sloppy joes....

Couple of vidoes of Spencer eating-I KNOW-how exciting....but the one of him falling asleep is pretty cute...
He is so smart. I can actually ask him to go get me something and he will retrieve it with a BIG smile on his face. Mrs. Anne (his nanny) said that I should have 4 more babies just like Spencer!!!

This past weekend-I was laid up with a sinus infection. I felt so horrible that I pretty much laid on the couch all day Sunday. Michael was doing football stuff-so it was mostly me, Spencer and the dogs. I learned that even though Hailey (the Golden) is VERY smart-she did not understand my simple steps to changing a poopy diaper. Spencer was a real trooper though, he played alot and would randomly come and poke me to make sure I was still alive. I must give myself the "mother of year" award b/c after several attempts at poking me, Spencer gave up and tried to "talk" his way into the frig for some lunch. He was standing in the kitchen, hanging on the door to frig and I guess trying to figure out the secret password b/c he sure was talking....now why didn't I get THAT on video??/
