I have heard many friends express the "change" they feel in their relationships with their first-borns after a second child joins the family. Though not all bad changes, it is a change nevertheless, and I find myself wanting to make these last few weeks special and not take them for granted with Aaron.
Though there is lots to do and lots on our plate this month and I'm feeling the tiredness and moodiness set in, Lee was out of town for a few days this past week so we got to play lots...
It is special treat for Aaron to head to Dunkin' Donuts. I always have coupons so for about a buck or so, we can both enjoy a treat - donut for him, coffee for me. And of course, bday parties at Chuck E Cheese are always a highlight....
Zoo and playdates with friends....
Aaron is also learning how to hit a pitched ball. And since we have baseball on the TV often enough right now with playoffs happening, he has to wear a helmet just like the "baseball guys." Problem is, we don't have a baseball helmet, so we have to go with our football one.... =)
He is also observing to be picky about the pitches....
Okay, here is an actual hit:

thanks for your comments, we live such parallel lives, it would be so fun to live close by!
i totally felt the same when skyler was about to be born. it was so hard to say goodbye to my days, just wallace & i. funny thing is, he didn't even seem to care when she arrived, i was the only one feeling sad & guilty that he had less attention from us.
