Jeremiah has been extremely hard to entertain the past few days. I can't seem to make enough funny faces and still get things done around the house. So, for about 2 hours a day I've been taking Jeremiah to the duck pond at the bottom of the BYU "stairs of death". Today there were at least 30 tiny baby ducks waddling around the pond and Jeremiah was more than fascinated. I set him in the grass with a bunch of bread and let the ducks swarm around him. He LOVED it! He used to try and make duck quacking sounds but this time he just smiled and watched them with big eyes. After we get back from visiting the ducks he is usually more content and can sit on his own playing with toys...I think the ducks, grass, water and all the passing cars might satisfy the stimulation that he's trying to get. Thank you duck pond!!!!!!
Since we've had Jeremiah we've outgrown our little apartment. We have been looking for a bigger place but it just seems kind of silly to move just to move again in a few months. So, right now Jeremiah's crib is in the living room and all of his toys are in a big basket next to our couches. I don't think I ever realized how much space babies take up and how much stuff they need. We now have baby clothes all over our bedroom floor because they wont fit in the dresser...mostly our whole house is just babyfide! Ah...blessed will be the day when we have a bigger home that's all ours and Jeremiah can have his own space!
