Yesterday I had a pretty crunchy mama moment. I was making Simon some baby food: organic applesauce, while wearing him in the Moby. I don't wear him as much as I should but a lot of that is because during the week most of the time I spend with him is busy time; feeding him and/or me, cooking, bathing, etc. As I found out yesterday, it's pretty hard wearing and doing anything in the kitchen. Using a knife with his head blocking half my view is not exactly safe, but he was being fussy and dad was cleaning.
We've also started teaching Simon sign language. I have to admit it's fun learning with him. The goal is to have him be able to communicate with us in that window between being old enough to sign and old enough to talk. Plus, right now his mind is a sponge so we may as well take advantage of it. Someday we hope he'll be the guy in the corner on the news depicting horrible car crashes in sign language.
