Although I am the one that posts the most on this site, EJ has been added to some mommy blogging sites: Check them out for some hilarious anecdotes about other children:
EJ turned 16 months on the 30th of July and as of mid-August – EJ will be coming with me to work every day. Thanks to one of my best friends Andru and his brainchild, Gear Live, this dad get to live a dream and work from home as a full time blogger! I’m sure this means that I will be adding many more entries on this site as I will have PLENTY to talk about. Like how much EJ is impeding daddy from doing work learning more and more every day.
Well, Daddy just happened to wake up at 4 this morning because there was something weird about the floor: it was wet. I went to the bathroom to see if it was the toilet, to the air conditioner to see if that was to origin, alas, I couldnt figure it out. As I traveled to the entire apartment, I realized that the entire place was 2 inches deep in water. So grandma and grandpa came to help only to have a very cranky young man cry for hours because we wouldn’t let him play on the floor. Thanks nana and grampa for helping out.
EJ’s favorite word right now is “Ya!” or “Yep” He will answer any question with this response. Here are a few examples:
Did you miss me? Yep
Do you have a dirty diaper? Ya
Do you always have to poo right after your bath? Yep
Do you love mommy and daddy? Ya
Oh well, at least it’s a relief he’s not saying “No” and “Nope”
Although I am partial to borderline hating Elmo, we will be headed to Sesame Place in Pennsylvania in the morning, so I’ll be sure to post some pics of puppet madness. Thank goodness that Marvin, Jenny, Sam, and Jaden are coming with us. They will keep me from doing bad things to Elmo (watch your back furry red puppet) As a matter of fact there are only 2 reasons to go to this place:
No reason to actually introduce this, just click below–
Unfortunately, I have no digital camera right now, so i can show you how cool he looks riding it. He says “gitta gitta gitta” as he pushes himself along with his feet. Finally, not just another toy that wasted my money!
About time this boy’s got a job. I was starting to think he was slacking! He assures me he understands cost of living in NYC and decided to come to work with daddy. He makes a good consultant and definitely helped me at work by reading insignificant papers and giving people messages. He was Tina’s right hand man (boy) for a while by making sure that the wheels on his stroller were turning as she did her work. He also checked all the chairs were working by spinning them in place. He did take an extended break and napped for 3 hours, which no one complained about considering he was on the job only one day. He looks forward to hanging with daddy another time.
A weekend where all daddy got to relax in the comfort of his home with his family run around NYC once again and accomplish little on his own holiday.
EJ met yet another lady of interest at Gymboree that was born 12 hours before he was (older woman, very cool). He had loads of fun at Gymboree while doing all of his problem solving exercises with no problem whatsoever.
He got to see Madrina Cara before she embarks on her 2 month voyage. We’ll miss you. =(
On daddy’s day, he told me that he really wanted to see “Harold and Kumar go to White Castle” so we did. I covered his innocent eyes during those “naughty” scenes. Then we went to dinner with Nana, Grandpa, Titi, and Tio at F&J Pine – a very delicious Italian restaurant. He then saw it fit to throw a fit. So all evening long he was hysterical! Crying, throwing bottles, blocks, food, etc. He wasn’t happy until he finally got to play with his stroller wheels. SHeeSH!
I decided to let EJ take a shower on this hot day today as opposed to his regular bath. So in he went, with two toy blocks. As soon as he stood on the bath mat, he ran to the faucet (probably expecting some water to come out). When I turned on the shower head, he was ecstatic. Turns out he’s a shower hog like Daddy.
