11- Pregnant Again

Return of the ickiness! Baby #4 was on its way! :D
Again, I planned on spending lots of time with my toddler, and I started on that pretty quickly.

He was pretty good about eating his solid foods. [I say that, and there's a big glop of food falling from his hand.]

But he was the fussiest kid yet, crying about this or that. It was a good thing he was so cute, or I would have quickly been at my wits end.

Oh, Alice was such a good kid! Always on time with her homework, never causing trouble. I had asked her to keep an eye on her brother though, because ofter we would find him doing strange things.

Like pillow fighting himself. I swear, someday he could be a great actor [look at how well he pretends to be hit!], if it weren't for his hint of insanity.

I didn't mind him constantly crowning himself king. But he sometimes would just make weird faces like that, for no real reason. I guess I was just worrying more and more after the hair incident that my first son would end up being my craziest.

So when he took up chemistry, I was kinda relieved at first, since it meant he was actually doing something real. But after I thought about it, I thought I may have been glimpsing his future as a mad scientist!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After what felt like a really long while, I finally got my "A-ha!" moment.

Which meant is was time to crack down and teach my little Romeo some skills.

 He was quick in learning to talk. [maybe a little stubborn at first, but after he gave in he learned fast.]
When he wasn't learning, he would play with his doll Boinky

Or play on the little xylophone in the nursery. He was my little future music man!

In between teaching and spending time with Romeo, I took time to upgrade Allen's Stereo.

[What, does he think I'm some sort of mechanical genius? I think he maybe hoping to get together again... But that'll never happen.]

Oh, and during this pregnancy, Alice aged up into a teen!

She looks a lot like her father, doesn't she? [I think so. Not hair-wise, that's obviously mine.]
A gorgeous girl! Just what this town needs. ;)
And now I have someone to help out with Romeo and the baby to come! Score!

By the time I got to finish teaching my baby to walk, it was already late in the pregnancy.

And right when I had finished...

the labor pains decided to kick in.
