Things to watch out for


Another week has begun and once again, life in the Tremblay household is getting to be more interesting! As I had mentioned in a previous post, I will be heading out to see the dentist to have some oral surgery done on me. While it seems like a very painful procedure, I am looking forward to it taking place (yea I know, I am a little weird). We had a brief scare the other night. Robbie was crying and Cindy went in to comfort him. Well, she noticed that he was breathing funny. So she brought him into our room for us to check him out. After a few minutes, we realized that his nose was stuffed up! So Cindy used the nose ball to clean out both nasal passages and he was back to his normal self. Things that we take for granted for ourselves that don't seem to be too much of an issue,can be a bit scary for a little one.
Last night, I was on the floor playing with Robbie. Well, since I know that if I give him a belly blast (think of a zerbert), he will laugh. Well after a few minutes of curling him to give him the belly blast, I had the "bright idea" of holding him up and giving him one. Needless to say, the joke was on me! Literally! One should be careful when giving a child under the age of 2 a belly blast. Because when I did, he promptly spit up on me. Of course he felt better, but now I was needing to wipe off the spitup and change clothes. But hey! It makes your skin baby soft! Just kidding.
Recently we began turning off his little light in his room to help him know the difference between day and night. I am thinking it will help him down the road when he gets a bit older to sleep in the dark and that he will know that mom & dad are not far away if something troubles him. So we shall see how that goes!
Well, that is about it for now. I am sure there will be other funny stories to tell as the days, weeks, months and years pass by.
Peace out!

Greetings again!


Don't have a heart attack. I know it has been a few days since my last post, but I am trying to stay on top of things with Robbie and the boy is giving me some good news to pass along to everyone. So here we go again!
As most parents find out sooner or later, teething can be a bear at times! It seems a child does not want to sleep, eat or a host of other things. Well, Thursday morning (that starts at 12:01am), Robbie did not want to sleep. From 4:10am until 7:10am (or so) Robbie wanted to play! While Cindy and I rotated to tell this young man it was sleepy time and not play time, he was being a stubborn little guy (I keep reminding him that mom & dad have more experience than him, and we are more stubborn than him) and wanted to keep playing. If you remember my post from the other day in which I had mentioned that he received some gifts from Uncle Scott & Aunt Dawn during his first trip to Pennsylvania. Well, he had received a stuff Tigger that is pretty close to his height. Well, Cindy went in around 6:50am or so and he had Tigger by his tail, tossing it to & fro! I wish we had the camera for that one! He is getting strength in his hands,arms and legs to be getting pretty close to being mobile. The next thing I will be writing about will be the fact he has flipped from his back to his belly. He is getting the general idea on how to position his body to be able to roll over and with some practice, I am sure he will be flipping back & forth here in a few weeks (maybe while Grandpa & Grandma are here!).
Speaking of pictures. We recently filled up another camera worth of shots and will be taking them to get developed so everyone can see updated pictures of ouir little guy.
Well, time to head out and get some other things taken care of around here.
Have a great weekend!
