September 22, 2002 - Sunday
Having had the boys' cousin Chloe here for much of the weekend (her parents
were attending a nearby wedding this weekend) I think the difference between
two and three babies is that with two you can sometimes think that it ought
to be like it was when there was just one, that maybe you'd have a little
time to yourself every now and then. With two that's not really the case,
but I think there's still hope. With three, the gig is up. Chloe had a fine
time, eating like a champ, napping and sleeping like a big girl, and playing
happily with the boys the whole time, but with the three together it was all
babies all the time.
Jeremy's baby-sitter has been claiming that he's been waving bye-bye, but
I hadn't seen it until today. Interestingly, it was not the little backward
finger wave that both Harry and
Chloe first learned, but a full arm wave. Unfortunately, I may have been the
only one to see it today, although Jeremy did it several times. It's just
that the processing time for baby Jeremy is a little slower than for someone
older and by the time he remembered or realized he was supposed to wave, everyone
would have turned away.
