- HEARING:: Lex "typing" on my old keyboard
- WEATHER:: Sunny
DH has been telling me that Lex can whistle. Of course I'm like..."Yes, Dear...of course he can whistle.". It's not that I don't believe him, it's just that, well, Lex is just 1. Tuesdays I always work late and I get home around 9, sometimes later. Those are the nights when Lex wakes up and I have to go in and rub his back until he goes back to sleep. Last night was different.....he wanted to play with me. I was exhausted, so I just made a makeshift bed on the floor and I laid him down next to me. That didn't work because now he can get to the toys. I just kind of laid there for 15 minutes watching him, really unable to do anything while he climbed all over me, kissed me, hugged me (which actually kind of hurts ), then he just sort of got quiet and sat there looking at me. I could tell he was really tired, so I laid him next to me, he didn't like that. I looked at him and said...."Ducky, Mommy knows you're tired and Mommy is tired, too. You're not going to like this, but I'm going to lay you in your crib, but I'll be right here on the floor so you can see me.". As soon as I put him in his crib he started crying. I just put my face down and pretended not to hear him. He continued to cry, when that didn't work he started fussing at me. I could feel him staring at me, too. It was so hard not to look when he was fussing, cause he's so cute when he does it. Well he got real quiet all of a sudden, but I knew he was still staring at me. Then all of a sudden he started whistling at me!!!!!!!!!!!! OHG!!!! Of course I sat right up and looked at him and said..."Did you just whistle at me?!"...he started cracking up!!!!!!!!!! I could not believe it! Of course it worked.....I picked him up and rocked him for 10 minutes till he fell asleep. Little shit. He was sitting there in his crib trying to get my attention and when the usual two didn't work, he broke the big guns!!!
After he fell asleep, I put him in his crib, just started at him for about 5 minutes , then went back to bed. After I laid down, DH whispered...."I told you he could whistle."......he had been laying in the enjoying the show the whole time! I just couldn't bring myself to be angry with him though
