I apologize for not having a picture to go along with this post but I'm EXHAUSTED. I haven't blogged in like two weeks and I need to update you on T. This blogging thing takes energy and I don't have alot of it these days. Thanksgiving wiped me out. Lots of food+packing+every weekend filled with activities for the holidays=being behind on everything!!! I've finally caught up on our laundry and deep cleaned the house. I know that I only have one child but I do laundry for a husband that changes multiple times a day. Whew...I'm glad to be done. Now only if we can be naked for the rest of the week so it won't back up again! :) Just kidding! Anyways....this post is just for T (well after this sentence).
What's T up to...
-Scaring Mama and Dada (actually scaring us) He will walk out of his room at bedtime and almost close the door leaving about two fingers in the door....and open it and say AHH...AHHH...AHHH along with shaking his head. We get real scared and he cracks up!
-has become OBSESSED with Thomas the Train. I'm not even sure how this happened but he has fallen in love with Thomas (choo choo is what he calls him). He makes this crazy, crazy face and starts either running in place or dancing up and down. A dance, and a dance, and a dance!
-Loves to throw his ball (its a Thomas ball)
-He can finally go down the stairs on his belly by hisself. This took a long time to teach but he finally has it. It helps me out ALOT because I don't have to carry him down the stairs. He just sits on his bottom backs up and scoots very fast down them.
-Speaking of carrying T...he will NOT help you carry him. My mom, sister and mama in law have pointed this out. Most other babies will help you out by holding themselves up a little. Not T. Just dead weight. 30 lbs. of dead weight!
-Loves when his dada comes home! He gets so excited and knows when he pulls up...his truck is just a little loud.
-Can look for his sippy cup and find it! He is the cutest thing in the world looking for it. He puts his hands on his knees and moves his head from side to side all around the living room and kitchen. He will eventually find it by pointing at the direction of it with his two fingers. Everything is two fingers and a thumb.
-He is sticking with the few words he knows. Dada, cacka (cracker), choo choo and ah-choo. Sometimes he says Mama but not directly for me. He also can say Gaga for my mom which is really close to cacka. I want my Christmas present to be him saying Mama to me. Why is it that Dada gets all the excitement and I do everything for the tiny and he refuses to even say my name??? Mama's always get the scraps! haha!
-He is eating pretty much everything that we do...except spicy stuff. Oatmeal for Breakfast, Grilled Cheese and Banana for Lunch, and Veggies, Chicken Nuggets and Applesauce for Dinner is what he usually loves. Sometimes I will depart from my eating schedule for him. Sometimes. Poor thing but he sure isn't ever missing a meal and for the most part he eats really well. I don't have to bribe him to eat veggies!
-Finally...he is sleeping in his own bed again! Thank goodness!
-He loooves Christmas lights. We did put our tree up but without any ornaments. I didn't want to fight him for a month over it. He can still enjoy it and dada even put up outside lights!
-He looves music and dancing. No matter the song. Just a good beat!
-Is drooling and teething like crazy. He has gigantic teeth coming in. 3 of them. Not sure if they are for sure molars or not but they are big. And they are so swollen and red. I've been giving him a teether from the freezer and he bites it like he is eat a steak.
-Shhh...he hasn't bitten me in like two weeks. Since Thanksgiving when he decided he wanted to bite my right in the rear while I was watching a movie. Maddy got a good laugh out of that one!
-I think that is all my fingers can type right now. It's so fun being with T and getting to be with him as he discovers all these new things. He has the best personality and smile. Fun and crazy all the time! I'm very blessed to be his mama!
