Update

Ok, this is probably going to be really boring to read, but I need to write it down. Solomon, more commonly known as Chocolate (Spanish pronunciation), Choco, Chocino, Chocorino and Big Fat Baby is crawling very officially. He just turned 7 months and he is in fact pulling himself up and things and trying to walk. He and Cai are pretty much neck in neck developmentally. Cai also began to worm around at 5 months, crawled at 6 months and walked at 9 months. I'm a crap mom and I don't remember when Cai said his first word. :( I'm hoping I have it written down somewhere, otherwise it's always documented on video.

So this morning Cai informs me at 6 am:

"Mama, dis is not my best day."

I proceeded to try to convince him of the fabulousness of the day ahead of us. But then after a trip to the court to pay a ticket, Choco having the hugest blowout ever and pooping all over his clothes, carseat, the car, the diaper wipes, Cai, me and the people walking past us, Cai reminded me of his earlier prediction,

"See Mama? Dis is not my best day." Ironically he was fine today, it was me who was grumpy and Choco who was poopy and fussy teething. Speaking of, Choco has two teeth, they both popped up at 5 months and Cai did the exact same thing. I'm beginning to think their father is just using me to clone himself. If they start taking 30 minutes in the bathroom and cracking a beer for Monday Night Football, my suspicions will be confirmed. Stay tuned...
