This boy. This boy who is not a baby anymore. I feel like in the past month we've gone from having a baby to having a real-life toddler! He walks! He talks! He eats real food!
He took his first real steps in Utah and I thought it was a miracle like unto the one in the "Heidi" story. But he didn't show interest in taking more than three steps at a time in the ensuing weeks. About ten days ago, however, he was walking like he's been doing it for years! (Or days.) Awesome.
Although he only says a few words, what he does say is so helpful. "Da da" is obvious. "Wa wa" is water/milk. "Dog dog" is Bruno. "Ball" is...wait for it...ball! And "[screaming]" is "I don't want to sleep." See? Helpful, no?
And the food! The glorious food! My little Oliver eats almost everything we put in front of his face, with the exception of peas and avocado (I'm going to continue to try this one). Love it.
He loves playing with toys, cars and balls being the favorites. And while he still puts things into his mouth, it's getting maybe a tiny bit slightly better.
P.S. You know how much I love these pajamas, right?

adorable PJs! and what a cute walker. :)
ReplyDeletelucy still hates avocados. i think it's the texture or something? we always try, though - she makes a great "i hate this" face!
glad he's talking - that always helps out. i'm so glad i got to meet him and hang out with him and hold him!
the girls had to watch the video "again!" and again and again. maybe 6 times? i finally said enough.
those pajamas ARE so great! is it really cool enough where you live to wear them? i'm so jealous, we are still battling mid 90's every day. bring on fall!
ReplyDeleteI am also sooo in love with those PJs. and Ollie is one of my favorite littles.
