squish

10/30/14 tomorrow is halloween. unfortunately, it's supposed to rain. we'll go to noah's school with him and the kids are going to show each other their costumes. a few things about noah lately:

• he's sleeping in a toddler bed which means he can get out, and he's getting out. a lot. this morning around 3 or 4:00 or something he was awake, and then again at 5:45, and he wanted to snuggle on my belly on the ground. later he wanted to sleep in our bed with josh, and that was okay and he did that until 7:40, when it was time to wake him up. he happily would have slept longer. i don't know if we want to support the idea of sleeping in our bed... is he going to want to do this at night? or the middle of the night? also, i'm up with aviva and nursing at 6:00 am, so it's all josh... who knows. 
• a couple pairs of his pants are too long so we often roll them up. lately he also says his shirt is too long, and he wants us to roll it up. 
• last week when he saw me changing aviva's diaper, he noticed that she doesn't have a penis. he said "beeba no have penis. has two butts. one front. one back."
• also, i told him that i loved his belly button and not every kid has a belly button as great as his. later, he told me, "some kids no have belly." that's how he interpreted what i said.

about aviva:

• she's crawling!
• she likes apples. likes holding them, and sucking on them (she has no teeth) and intermittenly sucking on a finger or her thumb while she holds the piece of apple.
• she often gets hugged and kissed and squished by noah. mostly i think she likes it. he knows he can do it until she makes unhappy sounds.
