Yesterday I took a day off school and went with my mother-in-law and my baby’s two cousins (13 and 14) to the park. It was awesome. It was Andres’ (my baby) first time at the park, well at the playground anyway. I’m glad I took the camcorder. I went on the slide with him and he was smiling all the way. Then there are little steering wheels at the side of the playground and I stood there holding him while he steered us. He almost crashed into his cousin who was filming him drive.
We also bought McDonald’s for our little picnic and I can tell he is going to be such a little trouble maker. Everything he sees he wants. He sees me drinking soda and he lunges for it, he sees his cousins holding little toy arrows and gun and he lunges for that too. We still had some french fries left over and put them aside. He eyed them and lunged at them grabbing them and then he was shaking it (he shakes everything like if it’s his rattle) and spilled all the fries on him. He paid no attention, he wanted the little box not the fries. We were all eating the fries he spilled on himself, telling him he tasted good; nice and salty.
He needed the fresh air. I try to take him at least out in the backyard with the dogs, so he’s not breathing in all that stuffy air inside the house and room. It’s been very hot lately so I haven’t taken him out as much as I use to.
Our room, where we sleep, has no windows because it’s actually the basement. But it doesn’t feel like the basement because it’s been remodeled to look very nice with tiled floor and a closet. But what I don’t like is that it has no window!! And we cannot change rooms because all the other rooms are occupied already. We should have stayed at the other room we had, but the reason we changed was because of the baby. His stuff takes up a lot of space and the other room was barely enough for both of us, and now the baby is here and we have just enough room for everything.
Is living in the basement bad for the baby? That’s something I’d like to know I mean there is no fresh air coming in, he doesn’t see the sun in the morning. The only thing do get is the crickets in the night, we hear those loud and clear!
As long as there isn’t excessive mosture in the basement you shouldn’t have an issue. You may want to run a dehumidifier in there just to be sure. All basements have some kind of moisture.
Wow, thanks. I’m gonna have to do that.
