Bub....ble! Bub.....ble!

Riley said Bubble!! ha! The things a Mom gets excited about! Dad too! Sometimes when Riley's taking a bath, I blow bubbles on him. To this point, he had been mostly been indifferent too it, and I don't do it all the time. But last Thursday he grabbed the bottle of bubbles off the ledge of the tub so I thought what the heck?!

The first time I blew them toward him - he stood up at the edge of the tub to get into the actoin and he blew too! Except he doesn't really know how to blow, so basically he tucks his top lip in his bottle lip and makes a fart noise with his mouth! OMG! It cracks me up! Then he's blinking with a quizzical look on his face like how did I blow in my own face?

Then the 2nd time I blew he said it! Bub......ble! Then the 3rd time I blew.....he said it again Bub....ble! Faster this time! So of course, I had to call Kelly to come witness this event!

I totally expected him to get performance anxiety and clam up, but the 4th time I blew.....bub...ble! bub....ble! I double header! And Dad witnessed it too! Of course, Kelly brought the camera thinking there was going to be something funny to take pictures of...not the video camera! Either way! We both heard it!!

Of course, he hasn't said it since! But I haven't blown anymore bubbles either! We've had stuff going on all weekend, so bath time has been rushed or at odd hours.

We survived church without any biting incidents today either! WooHoo! Of course, we drugged him up with Tylenol and Baby Oragel and armed him with his paci before we left! I was so sure I wasn't going to have a 2 or 3 year old running around with a paci, but all of the sudden I find myself being a paci pusher! It's definitely better than Baby Jaws and his path of destruction!!

If there's one thing Motherhood teaches you...it's choosing your battles and picking the lesser of two evils! :)

Other than that...it's been a pretty quiet week for all of us! Which is good! We needed a regular week! We've had way too much excitement lately!
