Oh man this cute face is screaming in his crib right now! He HATES napping by himself. When he realizes he is alone, he instantly starts to cry. And this week he instantly fusses as soon as I get up out of the chair to lay him down! And that fuss turns into a full blown scream. It's so frustrating. Especially when his sister is the one throwing it off cause she HAD to come in and ask me for something RIGHT THEN. Ugh talk about patience blow out. But at least he started sleeping through the night this last month even if he started randomly waking up at 5 AM (2.5 hrs early) for a snack. Perhaps we're in a growth spurt. We could swear he is teething too without evidence. So he is still my needy, sleep deprived little boy who makes working from home without a nanny ROUGH. I'm trying to let Lexi play with play doh during these nap times (the only activity I can trust her with alone) but now she can help herself to food and turn on the DVD player as well. So I guess she is coping.
He loves his little cars & track // music // climbing // grunting // being held // being tickled // biting everything // copying our behavior (passing things back & forth, putting the lid on etc..) // screaming at nap time (ok maybe not loves...) // head butts // pulling hair // tackling sister // peek-a-boo // stroller rides // baths // when dad comes home (who doesn't) // going through drawers
I love his personality when he isn't being demanding. He has a sense of humor already. He started standing on his own BARELY. Still my very cautious boy. He could do it if he wanted. He walks behind the walker or with us only WHEN he wants to.
Food: goldfish & cheerios are our go-to snacks. He is getting better at water from a sippy. He loves the fruit pouches too or smoothies. He eats bananas or oatmeal for breakfast, perhaps I'm still lazy and nurse him for lunch & then he mostly eats our table food at dinner but is super messy & can get picky. Right along with his sister. And dad really. I still mostly nurse. I need to go read how it worked with Lexi, because I'm scared we will never part from it and I'm ready & need him to be. Haven't tried cow's milk yet though.
I think he has grown some, but not much honestly. I haven't gotten rid of too many clothes although we're in more 18 month stuff. We were graciously given some hand me downs in his size (like those overalls) and that was awesome because pants were dwindling.
