96. Crying jag

Sunday we had a photo shoot of the Salazar children and grandchildren. It's a surprise, but I don't think they read my blog. My mother doesn't read my blog either, sad to say. I have to fill her in on the phone on the weekend. I can tell by her questions. People liked my new web site of William: http://www.geocities.com/pinchmitra/photopagespiral7.html. My friend Scott Hamilton says he looks like me. Many people remark on the hair. Some ask how I know he's a Mets fan.

Remember, since I'm giving info, you can e-mail me comments if you don't want to write comments on the blog, at steve@fwbo-nyc.org. Last factoid: I've written over 27,000 words in my blogs. I was reading in the Times that there's a place where you can get a book published for $150 for 10 copies. Maybe I'll print up the blog for people. Maybe I'll just let it hang in the void of cyberspace.

Sunday, after the photo, V and D took the kids to McDonalds to play in their play zone, and then to Abuela and Abuelo's. Natasia, Robyn, and AJ are "all up in his grill" but I like their enthusiasm for him. So I got a lot of free time, which I squandered watching football, and used well by taking naps.

William woke up at 3 last night. Diana left at 6, early, getting a ride from her father, to set up her room for the kids today. William woke up at 7:30, and then later had a bit of a crying jag. I think he missed his morning mommy. The 3 wakeup probably filled him up, and he did not wake up. He slept for 20 minutes and woke up happy. I had a horrible dream that he woke me from at 3, that I probably would have forgotten if he had not woken up.

I took him over to Abuela's so I can study today. I hate to have to study, but I need to pass my exam.

Angelique asked if William is turning over. I read in my calendar, "turning over? first tooth?" on Tuesday for 5 months. I entered any milestone expectations into my calendar. Maybe he's a slow turner. Diana thinks he's going to go from back to front, and I think the opposite. I had him on his chest a little yesterday and he puts his butt way up in the air and moves himself around, but he doesn't use his arms. He's reaching for everything and has lively eyes, so I'm not worried. He has a sweet disposition so far.
