Month: April 2007

We had noticed that Diego’s Geox Jfang8 shoes were getting small for him. So we when to a new children’s shoe store that opened up by us. It is called Tippy Toes. Just opened Friday, April 27. They have a two month guarantee. If they don’t fit within two months, we can just return them and get a new pair in exchange. LOVE that!

We bought him three pairs of shoes. He got a pair of black Crocs as his house shoes, a pair of Tsukihoshi tennis shoes and some Ecco Hide And Seek Teeter Totter sandals.

He wore the tennis shoes home. He kept checking them out. The great thing about those is that they are machine washable. Just take the sole out and throw them in the wash. I like that very much.

Now he is all set for the summer!

This is what Diego said after I put his socks on him tonight.

He is wearing his new big boy two piece pajamas. I can’t believe he is just growing so quickly. *sigh*

And so it begins. We have noticed that for the past few days if he doesn’t get what he wants right then and there, a huge ear piercing scream follows. He would throw little tantrums here and there before but nothing like this. He still can’t verbalize things that he wants so I can see the frustration. He just takes your finger and tugs you until he takes you to what he wants. Getting there is fine but trying to figure out what he wants just takes a little bit more time which does not make Diego happy.

Eric asked me how long will this phase be. And we both answered at the same time: Forever!

😯

I think we both hit it on the head with that one.

That is the time Diego has been waking up for the past two mornings.  Not a good thing.  We try to ignore him but eventually he will start yelling “mamapapa!” or “papamama!”  I guess one of us will eventually get up and get him.  I bring him to bed with us and he will stay still for about 30 minutes.  Then playtime starts.  He goes to sleep at 8 PM the night before.  I hope this is temporary.  Keeping my fingers crossed!
