You want to be independent. I love that, but there needs to be some help still. Please. For Mama's sanity.
On Sunday, you decided you would feed yourself. You do not need help. You will not accept help. If we try to help get the spoon in your mouth we hear, "No, no, no!!!! I do. I do." Cute. Very cute. But you still have to eat.
Your independence has also transferred to your mode of transportation. Yesterday, during our post-adoption visit with L, you decided to take 2 steps on your own!!!!! You haven't done more since, but this is HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally, today you went to the pool for the first time. I am thinking you enjoyed it, but it was a little cold. That's right, cold. It is a four letter word we haven't really known this summer, along with rain. We left as it started to rain.
Love
Mama
You really like to "dot-dot-dot" with the coloring app on Mama's Nook.
After the concert we went to with Aunt Marcia, E, and A last Saturday. You loved the music and did not like the time between the songs.
The Joys of Self Feeding
Why, hello there. I am cute. I know it.
Feeding Joey. As you dropped the Cheerios for Joey, you kept saying his name and giggling. "Joe-Joe. Joe-Joe."
Tears during a snack? Yep. You screamed and cried until I gave you the spoon for your applesauce.
No applesauce got into your mouth. . .
Here I think you were saying, "I love you spoon."
Sometimes two spoons are needed.
Sometimes a different one.
The fourth spoon of the meal. Yep.
Your favorite snack is yogurt. It gets messy. Yogurt is on your face, but none got in your mouth by your doing.
Yogurt, everywhere. There was yogurt on Joey too.
The milk chant. Yep, you chant for milk.
Milk.
Not sure what is happening here or what is around your mouth. You are getting a lot of teeth.
Blowing kisses.
Mac and Cheese in the mouth? No. But the spoon got there.
You tend to cross your fingers during meals. Especially if you get something into your mouth.
Three spoons. All were used. Your Dada and I are letting you drum/eat with two spoons as we attempt to get food in you with the third.
First time at the pool.
Sunscreening you up before getting in.
Toddler time is at 10 am. It was a little on the cold side today. It was probably about 76ish degrees when we were there.
Deciding you like the pool. You really did sit down and even went into the deeper part near the climbing thing.
The splash area.
You were not so happy about getting out of the pool. It was getting windy and as we went to the car it began to rain.
