- His speech is really, really improving and we are so happy with the progress we are seeing from Speech Therapy. The other day I said "I like you" and he replied with "I like you, too". We are hearing lots of little phrases "I do this" "I not done" "I want to go" "I want show" "I need wawa" etc. etc. He's a little hard to understand but we're getting there!
- Tay still loves his tools. Whenever Hung gets his out to do a project or a service person comes to the house, Tay runs for his tools to help out. So cute!
- Sleep has been rough this month. He has been taking forever to fall asleep for nap, then napping until 6 or 7pm and then falling asleep late and often crying some in the night. Hoping it's a phase.....He tries so hard to keep himself awake in his crib when he knows he's tired. He'll pinch himself, kick, roll around, do whatever he can to stay awake and not give in to sleep. Also talks and sings a ton in his crib - probably another way to not sleep. He also finally started using a pillow and blanket but still likes his sleep sack - He will take it off when we wakes OR when he's trying to not fall asleep :)
- He LOVES wearing his Spiderman costume for halloween and turning into a super hero. He makes this squinched up, fighter face that is SO cute. He would pretend fight and rough house with Hung all day. And he has been sleeping with the giant stuffed spiderman.
- For sure in a heavy "mama" phase. Everything is MAMA. It makes Hung, G and Ashley a little crazy at times!
- Tay is also really into "sissy" - Loves to copy Avery, be included in her activities and follow her around. It melts my heart!
- Some favorite toys are tools, animals (G got him this farm set that he loves), trains, "coloring", and just tinkering with things. He also loves chasing/scaring and hide n seek. One time he hid SO good in the guest room in the basement that Hung couldn't find him. He was under a blanket silently giggling and totally not giving himself away.
- Despite limited language, he is really great at telling/showing us things. Yesterday he wanted a granola bar. He went and got it from the pantry and I offered to open it, got a firm "NO", and then he took me to the planning center and pointed to the kids scissors. He wanted to open them himself. lol. He REALLY likes to do things on his own which can be both good (glad he tries and wants to) and bad (takes forever and are sometimes things he simply can't or shouldn't do yet).
- Tay is still a pretty little guy - Wears size 7 shoes, anywhere from 12mos to 2T clothes depending on the brand.
- Appetite goes up and down. Usually eats a big breakfast and lunch and then is too busy for dinner. He no longer uses his high chair and is on a booster at the table or just kneels next to Avery on the bench. He has found where the candy and treats are in the pantry and is always trying to ask for them for a meal and gets really mad and sad when you tell him no.
- Tay continues to be a head strong boy who knows what he wants and his MAD when things don't go his way. He is also SO darn cute and can be really sweet and funny. Couldn't love him more!!
Not into getting his picture taken....But you can see the toll obsession below :)
