Our baby in a word: Adventurous!

Some neat things he is doing:

  • he has finally abandoned the “army crawl” and is finally now crawling like a normal human child.
  • babbles using many different sounds and expressions
  • grinds his top teeth to his bottom teeth
  • throws his paci down when he is up and wants out of his crib
  • likes to take a bath.
  • loves the bathroom, that is place of choice when he gets down on the ground to crawl
  • we joke that he does all things with his index finger.
  • hates oatmeal and cut up banana. He will push the spoon away and turn his head.
  • starting to chew with his front teeth.
  • LOVES his daddy! he likes to be held and to play with him.
  • LOVES strangers- yet is shy if they approach him before he is ready. He will burrow his head into my chest if someone speaks to him.
  • is going through some separation issues. He doesn’t want anyone to hold him but me or Dennis. He will allow me to leave the nursery at church without too much of a problem.
  • can “dance”.
  • kisses on command.
  • he listens well when we say “no” (and we say it a lot)
  • he gets his hand spanked when he does not listen
  • he likes to be “chased” when he crawls. he squeals, it’s so cute
  • he stands up on his own
  • he cruises the furniture
