Dear Jordan,
This week has not been the best one for the Lindley's but it's also been a good one at the same time! Your dad got sick on Sunday and we've just all been passing stuff around since then...it's been like 6 days. We're starting to get really good at handling your high fevers. I waited for it to come and the other night it did. I got you out of bed because you were crying and you were burning up. We gave you a bath, which always helps and then you snuggled with me in the chair for about an hour. Every time you get sick...even if you get a cold...you get a high fever. Usually the high fever is your body's last battle against the germs. You always win though! I love the day after you have that fever, because I can't stop kissing your cool cheeks and rejoicing that you feel better.
The big news this week was on Thursday. We found that you will be getting a baby sister in January! I am so excited to have her here, but we'll see how you feel about it. You don't like to share attention with anyone or anything. You are happiest when someone is playing with you, but you're getting better at playing by yourself.
You are such a little engineer. You're always coming up with new ways to do things and I call you the Deconstructor. You take apart things and just want to know how everything works!
This week, you have started answering questions. It's so nice because I never know quite what you want. You have started saying "yes" and "no" when I ask you if you want something. Some day you will be able to actually ask for things. Until then, we will just keep playing Twenty Questions!
Another big victory in your life is you are getting better at being patient. Yesterday at Rhythm Babies you waited very nicely for the instruments and the scarves. I was impressed!
We have a lot of fun in store for this week. It's supposed to get cold and rainy so we might still be cooped up, but we'll try to do some fun things anyways.
I love you buddy,
Mom
