Picking out the day's chocolate 'ration' |
Possibly because he was tired from his little immune system working so hard, he had some stellar naps all week--mostly two & three hours. It's been really easy to get him to sleep or nap lately, which has been great for my productivity.
Despite being sick for half the week, Sprout is still his cheerful little self. He's constantly banging on things, including his xylophone. I'd have to say his favourite toy of the week is probably his socks--pulling them off, putting them on his hands & pulling them off again. He still refuses to wear mittens outside, however. A close second would be the squishier bears in his teddy collection. He likes to nap with one of them & we often have one in our bed for him in the mornings when he comes in for his morning feed & cuddle.
Walking is going to happen any day now: Linnaeus is constantly practicing standing on purpose in all kinds of tricky places, like on the couch, in the bath & on our bed. He often stands on his own without realizing it while holding a drink with both hands. (Though he doesn't actually need two hands to pick up his sippy cups. I find it hilarious every time I see him slinging his straw cups around one-handed.) He's also been cruising between objects that are farther & farther apart. Don't forget to submit your prediction for when he'll walk here in the comments. (there's a prize for the closest guess!)
The big news of the week has been the new words Sprout's started using. New this week: beep-beep (beh beh), nom (this is a breastfeeding request) & dog (dok). So far that makes that (dah), uh-oh, no, all done (ah-doh), ball/balloon (bah), hi (aiee), hello, door (doh).
