events of note over the last 10 days or so.<\/p>\n<p><strong>April 10:<\/strong> We were playing the other day with all of Carson&#8217;s little toys (farmers, farm animals, some circus Playmobils, airplane pilots, etc) and he gave one a hug so I took this video of him, trying to get him to hug his animals. \u00a0I think this is precious.<\/p>\n<p><iframe

had a good time and he was so tired when we got home that he took an afternoon nap that was close to 2 hours long! \u00a0This is unprecedented. \u00a0I just don&#8217;t have the energy or stamina of a 2 year old, so I can&#8217;t duplicate the level of fun he had with Jack. \u00a0But boy, if I could get this kind of nap out of him every afternoon, I would be one happy mommy. \u00a0I had time to make a pot roast and bread puddings. \u00a0I don&#8217;t remember the last time I was able to do that.<\/p>\n<p><a

\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>April 14: <\/strong>The little guy slept 12 hours last night and took 3 naps totaling 6 or so hours today. \u00a0He also hasn&#8217;t been eating well, but he&#8217;s drinking more milk than usual. \u00a0Calling the doctor on Monday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>April 17:<\/strong> The pediatrician confirmed my fears that Carson had hand, foot and mouth. \u00a0He was so fussy this past weekend, and wasn&#8217;t being a very good eater. \u00a0Then I saw a blister on his hand and knew there weren&#8217;t many explanations for that. \u00a0He hasn&#8217;t been his usual cheerful self the last few days, but the doctor said he looked to be on the mend by the signs of the sores in his mouth. \u00a0Poor little guy.<\/p>\n<p><strong>April 18: <\/strong>As always, being outside works miracles for Carson&#8217;s mood. \u00a0We played in the sprinkler today for a little while.<\/p>\n<p><a

the popsicle eating Carson dunked my phone into my water glass and so I am without a phone until the bowl of rice it is buried in works its magic.<\/p>\n<p>His current food obsession is grapes. \u00a0Together, he and I go through a good sized bag in about 3 days. \u00a0He knows where I keep them and he goes to the fridge and tries to open the door. \u00a0I ask, &#8220;Do you want grapes?&#8221; and he nods (which he kind of does with his whole body) and says &#8220;Peese!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Words and sounds I can understand are hi and bye, mama, dada (which sometimes become mommy and daddy) please, moo, choo choo (which is the sound he makes for trains and for car horns), more, and OK (which he kind of uses as self talk as he&#8217;s working on a task like getting on or off of something). \u00a0He also says papa and baba which I thought he was using to distinguish my dad from Ben&#8217;s dad, but he seems to use both when I point at pictures of them. \u00a0I feel like I am forgetting some others.<\/p>\n<p>Carson is still taking 2 naps a day and sleeping from 7 to 7 overnight. \u00a0I thought we were growing out of that, but we tried one nap the other day and it was a much less successful day for us.<\/p>\n<p>We are going to Austin this weekend to see family and to have a little lunch on Sunday to open <a title=\"The Envelope\u2026\"
