Likes:
- Your brother. You smile ear to ear when he enters the room.
- You're also pretty fond of your father. When Dada walks in the door in the evening and I am holding you, you throw your body in his direction as if to propel us over to him.
- Looking in the mirror gets you laughing. Today you discovered a mirror on one of your toys and you cackled looking at yourself.
- Everything must be examined, up close. I've enjoyed watching you look at your hands and discovering that they are yours and they are attached to you!
- Raspberries on your belly...you'll pooch that belly out as if to say "do it again, Mama."
- You *love* food, especially yogurt. You get pretty angry if you see the yogurt on the table and I dare offer you anything but a bite of yogurt.
Dislikes:
- You're not very fond of the bumbo chair. As a matter of fact you hate anything that pushes you into a sitting position. That may be why you're not anywhere near sitting on your own yet.
- Being left alone. You are used to having action at all times thanks to Freddie.
- Green veggies
Working on:
- Sitting up. You're not loving being bent into the sitting position and you do little to hold yourself up. Sometimes I can get you into the tripod pose where you support yourself with one arm between your legs but only for a few seconds.
- You've been getting the cup spout to your mouth and gnawing on it just enough to get a bit of water into your mouth. This surprises you each time.
- I've started the puffs on the tray so you can work on your pincher grasp. You tend to paw at them and get them stuck on your sticky palms.
Vocabulary:
- Mama mama mama
- Brrrrmmmm
- Eeeeeeeeee
- And some general screeching that I just love and makes everyone smile.
