Is She Teething?

For the past week or so C.J. has been playing with her mouth a lot. If she isn't poking her bottom lip out (which thus far I am able to keep composed) she is drooling or chatting. The one thing that is really getting us is that she is hell bent on sucking her hands. Now you know I have to check with a few experts in the baby industry. So during the football game I went to today I asked my mom and a family friend whether or not teething could be happening. They both affirmed that C.J. could be teething.

What does this mean? Now daddy can give her some food, real food. Now I will have you know that mommy has already told me that I better not give her baby no food. Now what dad does not want to sneak their baby some ice cream, a cheese doodle, a piece of a sandwich during the game or some juice instead of milk. I know its not right but hey, it is me people. Do I always do whats right? LOL!

Watching C.J. develop has been fun. When I speak to seasoned mothers the question that I must be prepared to answer is, "What is C.J. doing now?) So I get a kick out of myself as I explain her chatter, her kicking and her famous clinched fist. Now we have noticed that she is in a stage of development where she has identified that she has hands so now I will be looking to see how she uses them.

I really enjoy being a dad and when I get to share about C.J. it makes my heart flutter. If people thought I could talk before they should see me now! This ride is getting better and better as it goes along and I am enjoying it a lot. Well until tomorrow always remember to opray because prayer changes things.

Out of Sequence

So TCNJ Homecoming kept me from my blog yesterday. My plan when I began this was to make sure I completed one every day no matter what. However the week that ended yesterday would end off with me not being able to complete all my tasks. I was spent and pulled in many directions and over did it. Yesterday was a day for daddy. One day, C.J. will be able to join me when I go to Homecoming and then I guess I can participate in the family day festivities the school has in place. When I came home yesterday my two ladies were sound asleep so i kissed them both and did not make a lot of noise as I got in bed. One has to wonder what a day in the life of C.J and Shatema is when daddy is gone. I whispered to C.J. today that soon she and I will have a day like that as well.
