This phrase comes out of Charlie's mouth any time he does something he is not supposed to do and gets in trouble. It makes me laugh. I mean, how do you respond to that? "Yes, you are still a big brother, but you are also still in trouble!" All in all he has been great with Ryan. He loves to hold him and kiss him, but he also likes to try to take Ryan's hand and have Ryan "hit himself."
Peter was in Montana recently, so it was me, the boys and my mom. We had a great time. I am so thankful that my mom was here to help, or else I might be insane. Charlie is constantly on the go, and Ryan is constantly wanting to eat. He is a little chunk! Charlie said, "Grandma, Ryan is chubby like an elephant." I like to say that I have super milk. At least he is only getting up once during the night.
I am doing well. It is nice to be able to get out and walk several times a week. Yesterday we went to Park City. I thought it would be MUCH cooler up there. Silly me...it was 80 degrees at 10 a.m. I guess I will just have to leave the house earlier :)
Happy five weeks, Ryan! You are a joy to have and to get to know. I love that you are now smiling and cooing. And Charlie, you will always be a wonderful big brother. It will be so great to see you two interact when Ryan gets a bit older.
