Burrell, we have an eye appointment tomorrow (expect it to be half a day long I was told) and she said to tell the staff that Noah needs to be put in a room immediately to avoid other germy kids. AND that I need to tell Dr. K to wash his hands since he has a rep for not. I am hard pressed to imagine doing either thing.
Yeah, asking to be put in a room is one thing, but it *is* hard to tell a Dr to his face that he's a germ factory.
Noah loves tummy time. He is learning that he likes the mirror, little narcissist.
I heard of Norman Borlaug through the West Wing, too. I wonder what else I learned from that show and never realized.
little narcissist
All babies are, IJS. At least a few of them grow out of it, thank goodness.
At this point, I feel like rescinding the trip, but it would also punish those who did what they were supposed to do. OTOH, I hate for them to think that they can get away with this shit.
I definitely wouldn't rescind, unless you had explicitly connected homework/trip previously. Are these older high school/college kids? If so, I would probably approach them directly with the problem (with the intention being to make them aware of potential consequences of their actions and prevent future slacking).
I think it's because babies have the goldfish like memories. He glances away from the mirror for a second and then looks back and makes this face like, "OH! It's you! How did you get here?"
DH is making me late for my eyebrow waxing/haircut appointment. He should have been home 10 minutes ago. If he's much later, there will be badness.

Heehee.
My friend's daughter hated tummy time forever, Burrell. I don't think she got over her rage at finding herself on her belly until she was capable of flipping herself onto her back. She'd turn tomato red, her wee little face would squinch all up and after building a proper head of steam, she'd blow. Unfortunately, there were several weeks where she could flip back to front, but not the reverse. They were very long weeks.
