It’s been a loooong few weeks. Zack went from sleeping 13 hours a night and taking 4 hour naps to sleeping 10 hours at night and NOT taking a nap. Those were some rough, rough days. But everything is better now. We’ve put the lock on the OUTSIDE of the door. He just thinks the door is “broke” and isn’t at all disturbed by his situation. He gives up on opening it quickly and goes to sleep instead. I am in toddler hell!

He also has grown a few inches recently. He’s gotten really, really clumsy and can’t seem to escape an afternoon without a dozen new bruises and a few new bumps and scrapes. Poor little dude.

In any case, here are a few photos of him recently. Enjoy. And yes, he’s very fortunate he is cute.

Zack is now in his big boy bed–the one that I slept in as a child. It’s a twin and, as it turns out, he looooves it. I’m shocked that when he gets in to bed he smiles. Of course he’s also rediscovered an old hobby. He peeled the border off the wall again. I’m miffed at that, but I should have known it would happen. I hoped for something more. Now I have to plop down about $20 for a roll of replacement border just to set aside for a day when he won’t do it…

Not that they have anything to do with this new development, but here are some new pictures of Zack.
