Hi Little Guy!
Where do I begin? Each month is such an adventure with you. You are talking up a storm now. There is a constant dialogue from you and I LOVE hearing it. You really want to engage us in conversation. If you are trying to show us something you will say Mama again and again until I look at you to acknowledge your finding. You search our face to make sure we have clear eye contact too. It is so wonderful how expressive and communicative you are. You have also started to look up at me and smile. It is so amazing. You and I will be doing something like going on a walk and you will look up at me and just give me the sweetest smile. It makes me feel so happy to see the joy you have in your life.
One of your favorite things to do right now is to search for sprinklers. We go on sprinkler hunts and during one of them you learned to count. You can count to two and sometimes three. You will count to two and then know there is another number and just point to the next object and then sometimes you surprise me and say "Three"! You are so good with colors and shapes now. Your favorite color is still Yellow but only in the usage of the word. I think your real favorite color is red. You have also mastered body parts. If someone asks you where your eyes are-you will point immediately but then want everyone to see Mommy's too. You understand the concept of "Fast" and "Slow" now. We play a running game using those words. Yesterday I needed to get over to see Dada quickly and I explained to you that if you got in the stoller we could go really fast. As soon as you were seated you started pointing and saying "FAST! FAST!". There have been some tree trimmers on our street for the last week. They have been our constant source of entertainment. You love them! This morning you woke up and heard them outside. You were so excited and reached up for me and said "FAST! FAST!". You love to spin and run and have recently discovered you can still crawl but love to stick your bottom up in the air (downdog position) and walk. It cracks me up especially when you want Mama and Dada to do it with you.
You understand so much now. I can tell Dada that I am going to exercise tonight and you will looks at me and pout and look worried. I will explain to you that it isn't until much later and I will let you know before I go. You really want to be with me every moment right now. And you really believe Mommy can do everything the best. You want me and only me to do everything for you. I try to drink all of this in as I know times will change.
You love music and dancing. You have a definte preference in songs. You love disco! We don't watch TV with you. Only recently I showed you the "Bob the Builder" show. You loved it and as much as you love it you will only watch the beginning credits and walk away. I love that you like so many things and are not really interested in the TV. You will know point to the TV and say "Trucks"!! Because you know inside that big, black box are the trucks.
You love vegetables and fruit and are still not too fond of meat. You are still breastfeeding and recently have really started nursing alot again. I think you are getting a molar. We took you in for your check up and you are 35-1/8" tall and weigh 27 pounds.
I love you so much!
Mommy
