Mr Sassafras

Well just call Drake Mr. Sassy or Mr. Sassafras as Aunt Steph would say. He has been a little sassy lately. He wants to be held all the time and if you do put him down don’t you dare walk more than one foot away or else! LOL! I knew the spoiling would come back to bite me in the you know what… but I really do not care. I blame it all on teething. It is not his fault… I really do think he may actually be teething this time, although I have thought this for the last 2 months or so. Last night I really needed some sleep. Due to many things, um and perhaps my scrapaholic issues, I have not gotten enough sleep in a week! Anyhow it was John’s night last night so I said, I really need sleep, please let me get some sleep. Drake proceeded to wake up SCREAMING every 2-3 hours. Poor John. He did great though and when I offered to help he said, no go back to bed, it is ok. Drake is a very wild sleeper. He moves around and wakes up a lot, but usually he just tosses and turns a little and goes right back to sleep. Now it is like when he wakes up if someone is not there he gets scared or something. Steph mentioned separation anxiety… Possibly I guess. I can’t help it if he just loves us so much that he never wants to be apart. I feel the same way about him. SO anyhow, I am sure this is due to my “codling” as John likes to say. But too bad, I am not going to stop spoiling him anytime soon. And like I said, I do think it is something to do with teeth.
This weekend is his baptism. I hope that all goes well. He will probably love looking at all the lights and stuff in the church. Or all will be silent and we will get up there and he will fart really loud, or puke or bawl. Oh the possibilities are endless. Plus I know he will get stimulation overload and get fussy. All those people trying to get their mitts on him, he is in the stage now where he gets a little scared. That is ok though, if he wants Mommy he gets Mommy. Too bad baby grabbers! Except for the family of course. His baptism outfit came with a bonnet which he will not be wearing! I also chose the little tie outfit, not the dress. My BOY needs not to be in a dress! I did have to get little white shoes with crosses on them though. The outfit is JUST BARELY going to fit. I tried it on him last weekend and it will be close, but it should work. Good thing they only wear them once. Well that is about all the baby gabbing I have for today. TTFN!
