Ivo Burl roundup

Ryan and I finally saw the final episodes of the Sopranos last night. Disappointed. Confused. And just wanna know WHY it was so crappy. Depressing - I cried during episode 19 - but all for nothing. Awkward ended. But at least now, I can freely surf the net and finally read this article about the show...


But mostly, it was wonderful spanning time with Ryan while the boys slept. Somehow that doesn't happen much! Ivo is having a real rough time going to sleep. We gave up on naps when Ryan started vacation this month. Once he's asleep, he usually sleeps peacefully through the night. But he's like a cartoon with toothpicks holding his eyelids open. Ivo's taken to sleeping in - I've tried to wake him... no go. He just fights sleep soooo much. Exhausting.


Burl is a very good - if squirmy! - sleeper. He's usually down for the night around 9 and up for the day around 7. He nurses about 3-4 times through the night - but isn't fussy. Yesterday he used the walker for the first time - 4-1/2 months old! He started talking/singing A LOT. He almost has the balance to sit up - not quite.


Ryan and Ivo bought a blue fighter fish 2 days ago. Ivo named it Dory (like on Nemo). He has always loved feeding fish - and he's very excited about Dory. On a walk to Caves on Thursday, Ivo found a cicada (dead but totally intact). He carried it around, made it fly, showed it off. He was reluctant to leave it ourside, but finally agreed.


Yesterday Ryan set up the pool and both Ivo and Burl had a great time playing in our garden.
Ivo has used the construction(s): "That's what I'm talking about." "What you talking about?" "I talking about dat/_____." (for at least a month).
