So Liam's first tooth arrived, and I think the second one is trying to follow on its heels. (Does a tooth have heels?)
Sleep is again a luxury reserved for other families. I suppose it could be worse; Liam sleeps for hours at a time. The problem is that he frequently wakes up in pain, and often nothing works to soothe him. But other than the zombie-like qualities his parents are showing, Bean's in good shape.
Rumor has it that he crawled forward for the first time this weekend, but Lester and I weren't there to see it. There might be some video forthcoming of the momentous event... until then, it's not official. And the rumor was that it was rocking, followed by a tiny movement forward. We'll see.
Liam went to the Crawford family birthday party on Sunday. It gave Lester and I a nice break to get things done. I spent much of the day trying to get a new carseat. Why are all of the employees at Babies R Us incompetent? Liam is nearly too tall for his car seat, so we're getting the next stage. Amy will use it when she's here. Then Liam graduates to the new seat.
T-minus three days until Thomas, Amy, Trevor and Lynda arrive. Don't worry Thomas, yesterday I found Wheatabix at Safeway.

About Bean
- Baby Bean
- I was born on 3/1/07 at 10:27pm in Seattle. I can sleep through the night and I love books. I smile at every one I meet. I'm not a morning person. I love to read books; in fact, usually it's the first thing I do in the morning and the last thing before bed. My favorite book is Green Eggs and Ham (Previously Moo, Baa, La La La and Twinkle Twinkle). My best friend is Devin. We do a lot together. Sometimes we don't like to share. I can say a lot of words, but I think I'm often misunderstood. I voted for Obama. I don't like mac and cheese. My favorite day is Friday, because that's when the garbage truck comes. I've been to seven states, including Washington.
