Our Kid is Awesome
Gareth gets to watch movies on Mondays while I do the laundry. (And lately more often as well, but we're going to do better about that this week.) He was sitting there happily watching his movie while I checked some blogs and whatnot on the computer. I went and told him that in fifteen minutes it was time for a nap. Then I proceeded to lose track of time until I heard his door shut. Yes, my child just turned off his movie and went to put himself down for a nap - at exactly the time I previously told him would be nap-time - all on his own. I doubt this will become a habit with him (though I certainly wouldn't mind). Some days he's so exasperating and some days, like today, he's awesome. I love awesome days - and could use a few more of them!

Now that...is awesome indeed! Way to go, Gareth!
I am really missing seeing my sweet little Gareth. It about tore my heart apart to have to say "goodbye" to him on the phone last week! I don't know how much longer I can last without some face-to-face time with him--and Erin & Ryan, too.
Treasure up the good times, Erin!
That totally rocks. I might have to go out and buy him a present just for that. Especially since presents for kids have fallen off my radar ever since that grajon. Blame the school systems! In the meantime, I am telling everyone that my nephew could totally beat up their babies... although since all the people we know have 10 month olds, that really isn't fair. But cute-wise, Gareth totally rules. And that's the only beating up we would ever allow anyway.
That's incredible!! Lucky, lucky mom.
That is pretty awesome! I'm still working on getting Evaline to realize that night-time is meant for sleeping.
