Baby stuff and table manners

I have been a really bad blogger lately. I guess I have just not really felt like there was anything worth posting, but that is laziness on my part more than anything :) I feel like every day I am bigger than the day before. I looked up online how big baby Jonathan is supposed to be right now and supposedly at 27 weeks baby should be 14 inches long and almost 2 pounds. I am still trying to figure out how something that long is folded up inside of me! Oh wait, I know. He spent the better part of this morning on top of my right kidney, and he just returned. Little stinker! I made a comment this weekend about not being able to bend over anymore. Luke said I should yell at Jonathan to get out of the way and Adrian says that his little brother just keeps getting in the way of everything. The questions of how will baby get out are starting to come up amongst other things. It is so interesting to watch children try to figure out in their minds how a baby is supposed to get out, let alone how that baby got in there in the first place! They will soon find out all about that, for now the innocence is too endearing. I was up on the chair getting something off of the top shelf of the cupboard (vertically challenged!) and Adrian looked at me and said that my feet look like they are getting bigger too. He wonders how the baby could make my feet grow as well as my stomach.

A cute Adrian story I told him I would always remember so I can bring it up when he is an adult. We were eating dinner the other night and of course Adrian hated what we were having without even trying it. Then when he was "trying it" he kept stabbing it with his fork. I worked with him a little on how to hold a fork and how to have proper table manners. I told him that I was teaching him this because I love him and I would like him to eat nicely in front of other people. He said there was no one there to see him so it shouldn't matter. Then I told him that if he ever wanted to go on a date with a girl when he grows up that he needs to not eat like an animal. He got the strangest look on his face and said he was never going to go on a date with a girl and why don't I know that! To which I said, Don't you ever want to get married and be a dad? You have to go on dates to find out which girl you want to marry and have kids with. He then said that he was never going to be married or have kids. He wants to grow up and live alone and play in his pool all day. I laughed a little and said won't that be boring to play alone for the rest of your life? He said that he will have his friends come over and play. I reminded him that his friends will be getting married and having kids so they won't be able to come over and play all the time. At this he rolled his eyes and said, they can come over on their day off. Everybody gets days off! Oh the thoughts of children. Just know that when Adrian is 16 and wants to take a girl on a date I might just have to remind him of his plans for the future!
