Roman has gone from pushing his walker toy. . . . .
. . . . to getting brave. . . .
. . . . and letting go!
Four days ago he took about 6 steps but he's gotten scared since then. He'll take about 2 steps before sitting down now. He wants to walk!.... just needs to get a little more brave.:)* * *
Roman has changed quite a bit over the past month so I need to do an update.
13 Months Old:
- Will balance & stand for a min or two without holding onto anything
- Has 10 teeth
- Completely weaned from nursing and really likes whole milk
- Has a small vocabulary including:
"ba"= ball
"pa pa"= Papa
"nanna"= banana
"mmmma"= mom
and his brand new word, as of 2 days ago, "no" :(
- Learning how to repeat words said to him
- Jabbers all the time & "tells stories"
- So, so ticklish: under his arms, on his neck, sqeezing his chubby thighs and poking his full belly. . . . . he guts laughs and curls up in a ball on the floor. It's hilarious!
- Recognizes and loves his paci (takes it out of his mouth to cry then puts it back in)
- Wears 18 month clothes
- Insists on standing up in the tub! This makes for a short & stressful bath.
- Still HATES to get dressed or get his diaper changed.
- Loves, loves, loves fruit & bread
- Gets shy occasionally when someone talks to him and he'll lay his head on my shoulder (so cute!)
- Loves to push a ball around the house......sorta like hand soccer :)
- This boy is BUSY, BUSY, BUSY
He wears me out on a daily basis. . . . . but I wouldn't have it any other way :)
. . . and teased :)
