Toga Boy



I could cuss I am so frustrated with our camera.
For the last two months it has not worked properly. It is hit or miss. I have missed out on a lot of Kingston and Alder pictures. If I was my sister-n-law who is great about taking pictures and documenting her children's childhood then I would have fixed it by now. But I am not.
Here is a recent picture of Alder in his "toga towel." He is really into walking around the house in a toga fashioned out of towels. I think he is getting in touch with his Greek heritage. Hehe. Alder has been very challenging these last few days and I think its 2 year molars coming in as well as his frustration over not talking yet. I am just as frustrated. The other day in one of not-so finer moments as mama I said to my mother-n-law, "I swear if he does not start talking soon I am going to sell on the side of the road." Not so fine....right? I am told it is completely normal for some children to not talk until they are two. I am not concerned, just tired of playing a guessing game when it comes to his needs.

I hear you! Micah didn't talk much until he was two, so I feel your pain as far as the frustration. Once he started talking though, he did it very well. He is a perfectionist-I think he didn't want to say things until he could say them perfectly. Owen on the other hand talks a ton-much more than Micah, but no one can understand him but me.
