Baldy...continued

Benjaminh here.

Mama is sleeping 'cause, well, I don't.
Stayed up pretty much the whole night last night and napped for 15 minutes total today and whined ALL DAY. And now, when I whine and she leaves the room for a minute to get away? I follow her. Whining the WHOLE way. I crawl now. And whine at the same time. Like a small injured puppy I'm told (the whining, not the crawling...stay with me people).

Very effective. Ta-len-ted.

So I'm guest blogging tonight.
Mama needs her rest ...I've heard a rested mama is a happy mama so I'm testing the theory.

About the title. Yup. It's true. I headed up to the grands for the weekend and met up with some cousin action.The little cousin is still bald. His mom says his hair has grown but I'm too young to have my eyesight checked by an ophthalmologist...just saying.

Little E is getting a bit sensitive about the whole thing.
Pop's was heard calling him cueball. Not nice. Not nice at all. I think baldy overheard as well. From that point on he was staring. All the time. Staring at my new doo. My big boy haircut. My SECOND big boy haircut since I arrived. My hair rocks and he noticed. Wanted some advice. So I told him about my early months...he needs to replicate them in order for any of my advice to be effective.Tropical climate (or a humidifier...),
hammock,
carried around ALL THE TIME,
fed every hour, on demand Auntie Janice was not amused. I was just trying to help!

So sorry your mamma is needing some rest tonight from the w-h-i-n-i-n-g B but I must admit your posts rock!! You're a funny little dude with a head full o rockin' hair. Hmmm....can you help cue ball, I mean baldy out and make him a wig when you get your next cut? Would look pretty cute I'm just sayin.

Hope your mamma was able to get some sleep last night and that you did what you could to help in that department little man.

Hey, wait - I never said I wanted them to crawl, just that it was cool to see them learning. I'm no fool.

Speaking of careful what you wish for - our boys are now insisting on feeding themselves with spoons - and no, they don't have advanced fine-motor. This means they have to eat naked and go straight from high chair to sink; then I have to mop the floor (and sometimes the ceiling).

Nice to see you are getting some sleep while Ben takes over your blog!

Sleep is overrated... so I've heard! And from one past bald baby... one day little E will have a beautiful head of hair.
I think it's so cute that Ben can follow you know while he's whining... well not the whining part, but the following part.

Hi Benjaminh, Aiden Bao here. What is it with these mama's? Why do they get so tired when we don't sleep? And the injured puppy thing....I wonder if that sounds like a hungry kitten because apparently that is what I was told I sound like when I whine and crawl.

And as for the hair- I got my first haircut last week. I am glad our hair still grows even though we are no longer in hammocks and tropical climates! I think my mama likes my head of hair!

I checked your blog before posting - didn't want to insult anyone specific! For sure B always looks very comfy.
We ordered 5 rompers from https://www.punkbabyclothes.net/
but really should have spent the money on a new stroller...
