This is our 2nd week picture. This hasn't proven any easier one week later! I think he has grown 1 inch since last week! This is so sad for me, he just won't stay small near long enough!!! I have tried to measure his height (from floor to back while standing), he does NOT like the yardstick (at ALL), so I have to take the measurements really fast, while he is moving away from me! Last week it looked like 12 in, and this week 13. uggghhh. Stay small longer - please!
Week summary:
* He spent more time outside - he loves the nice weather. He is getting where he will stay outside by himself (at least for a little while)
* He is much more active! He loves running and trying to trip you up.....and he is good at it!
* He is beginning to go to the door and let you know he needs to go out (this is awesome- he's so smart)
* He is now running from you when it is NOT appropriate!!! This needs to be addressed! (It really DRIVES ME CRAZY)
* He loves to sleep with his head on your leg (so sweet). It doesn't look comfortable at all but that is where he prefers to be.
* We still spend 95% of our time on the floor with him.
* He heard gun fire and totally freaked out- he did not understand why I was not freaking out with him. I tried to explain that out here in the country he will hear lots of gun fire but he was safe and it was far away. It calmed him down some, but 2 days later it made him run really fast to the house, but he did come back out to play again.
* He met his granddad this week (he had been out of town). They seem to hit it off really well.
* He's getting a little more used to the birds, and I think he went after one yesterday! But loud mufflers on trucks that go by- is another story!
One of my favorite pictures. This was when he just turned 8 wks old. He loves to play in these daylilies - I hope they survive!
His new favorite play area - the ivy!! Of course now it looks all flat, so I'm trying to keep him out before he kills it all. But he has had a blast running back and forth - time and time again!
Going for a ride Saturday. I love that he is small enough to ride with me in my car - it will not last long - so sad.
