Today he came down with a fever so we've just been snuggling on the couch most of the day. I hate to see him hurting and wish I could make him feel better, but I also don't mind that he is sitting still on my lap and just wants to be held.
Do you know that so many movies and programs aimed at little babies feature snippets of the song Blue Danube? I didn't either until that became the first song Dex could hum. One day a few months ago he was sitting playing with a toy and started humming nonsensical things to himself. Except it was not nonsensical; it was Strauss. I began trying to track down the source. Where could he have learned this song? Turns out multiple places... It is on a CD they play for him at nap time at daycare, it is prominently featured on two (I think) Baby Einsteins...Baby Neptune and Baby Bach (or Van Gogh? Can't remember.) It's also on an Elmo short film that I have on my itunes and show him from time to time. It's kind of cool though. Now he wakes up in the morning singing it to himself.

Tell the truth, we were playing soccer, and Dex got in the way of my scoring a goal. Thus the battle scars on Dex. Needless to say I won. Old age and trechery always beats youth and skill.
