that's what owen became this weekend. i was sitting on the couch on saturday morning when he climbed up onto the coffee table. it is about a foot from the coffee table to the couch. i told owen to put his feet on the floor, and he decided to jump toward me on the couch. unfortunately started laughing so he did it again several times. by the time he hit time number 10 or so, i realized that i really shouldn't be laughing because that was only encouraging him. wonder how long he'll go before he breaks a bone...
he slept through the night last night for the first time in several nights. two nights ago he woke up at about 1:30 hacking and coughing (due to nasal drainage...he's got that start-of-school cold right along with the rest of his class at daycare). he finally coughed so much that he threw up. we had to launder every bit of bedding, including the pillow and comforter. everything is clean and dry except for the comforter, which is currently finishing the drying process between two chairs spanning the living room and dining room.
i need sleep. the delete key has been my best friend tonight. off to bed with me.

Ok, the jumping...yeah, I'd have laughed too. I hate to tell you, but that's just the beginning. Start practicing biting your cheeks or something. ;)
Hope he's feeling better.
i'm wondering how long before the first broken bone...crossing my fingers for a long LONG time on that one. he still has a bunp on the bridge of his nose from when he fell at grandma's. the bruise and cut are gone, but not the bump...
