A note to all mother’s out there. DO NOT LET YOU 1 YR OLD PLAY WITH YOUR CELL PHONE. EJ loves cell phones. I put it on lock and let him play with mine. He ran off with it and I haven’t seen it since. That was approx. one month ago. I have looked EVERYWHERE in my house and I can not find it. I had even checked the garbage. Now logic would say ” Why don’t you just call it?” Well, EJ somehow turned it off. Luckily I have insurance on my phone and only have to pay $50 to get a new one. I haven’t done it yet because I am so determined to find it. As you can see I have been unsuccessful. My point is that even though you may think it’s cute that your baby is talking on the phone, just be aware that if he runs off with it, you may never see it again. Don’t believe me, ask EJ’s dad. He thought it was cute that EJ would try to brush his teeth with daddy’s toothbrush. Let’s just say that I’m going to have to buy him another one tomorrow.

On Father’s Day, Mommy made breakfast for Daddy when he finally woke @ 12pm. As usual, EJ was up early and running around and that made mommy very distracted. Daddy ended up having toasted biscuits and somehow the eggs and salami survived. Daddy later expressed at dinner how disappointed he was that he did not get breakfast in bed; that when he finally got breakfast he ate it in the living room. I am very sorry, next year I will try to remember. By then, EJ can help me – even if it is to only stick the bread in the toaster.

Weekends always go so quickly, and just like that, it’s a new week:

• Fri – Tio Christian slept over. We went to Uncle Louie G’s (ice cream parlor). It’s the best. Tio Christian taught EJ how to high 5. EJ has a new dance. The “Side to Side”.
• Sat – Gymboree. EJ tried to take the whiffle balls from the little babies. We’re trying to teach him to share unsuccessfully. Afterwards, he went to his girlfriend Daniella’s 2 yr old party. There he rode the the swing. When they sat next to each other in their strollers, Daniella held his hand. Awww. (He takes after his Dad).
• Sun – Jaden’s baptism. Everyone kept telling me that EJ was such a good baby. In reality it was because I let him play with his stroller. I let him play with his stroller’s wheels. I felt like all eyes were on me. Afterwards, we ate at a chinese buffet. EJ fed himself. When we left, I felt bad because there was more food on the ground then went down EJ’s mouth. But in retrospect, we had tons of fun.

Pictures to come soon.

EJ has been growing up so fast. I know every parent thinks this but I must admit my child is a genius. These are some of things EJ has done this week:

• Mon- Has several conversations on Daddy’s cellphone. He walks around the house having a full conversation like a little adult.
• Tues – EJ has a new dance. Any Wiggle song comes on and he does “The Squat” dance.
• Wed- Still fascinated with talking on the phone. I’m talking to Gueli. He grabs the phone from me. Presses the buttons, hangs up on her, then starts talking into the phone. I then grab the phone from him and call her back, He then grabs the phone from me and does it again. After the 3rd time, I refuse to give him the phone. A tantrum follows. His infamous “lying on the floor on his belly crying and kicking” tantrum. Sure enough – that’s the sign it’s bedtime.
• Thurs – Takes his high chair’s table, stands on top of it and jumps up and down. Hits the top of the hamper and cracks up when it makes a noise (from his banging). Takes a plastic hanger and tries to stick it in the slot of the shredder. (shredder is unplugged).

Right now he’s asleep as should his mommy be. I will continue to add all the new things he does. Look out Einstein.
