Last night I had to work overnight on the Hematology/Oncology floor. Aaron said that after coming home from his grandparent's house, Henry appeared to look for me and started crying when I was not around. Hearing that made me sad. I really wanted to be there, especially now that he is expecting in and remembers things. I got home today around noon and he was sleeping. When he woke up I grabbed him and he just clung to me for the longest time giving me a hug. I could tell he genuinely missed me. It was so sweet feeling his little hands around my neck.
Tonight when I was with him, he started doing two new things. First off, he wanted to eat something very specific so he would sign "more" and then point to what he wanted. Does that count as a two word sentence? He did this on two separate occassions (and yes I gave him what he wanted). Then, Aaron and I were discussing whether or not Henry smelled like poop (he did). While we were talking about it, Henry signed diaper. I've never seen him sign it so clearly, and we didn't even say "diaper change," he just knew it. What a smart guy. Oh, another thing I forgot. While we were looking at a book he had "boo."
Man, new things are happening every day. I think we are about 6 months behind in his baby book, and if he keeps this we'll have to hire a secretary. Hmmm, that would be nice on so many levels.
Alright, my post call body requires sleep.
Good night
