My cheesy boy!
Now that we aren't going to the doctor once a month for Winston, my updates on him will probably be less often and less formal. He is so much fun to hang out with right now and I wish I could jot down every little thing about him, but that would take too long and I might miss some silly, new thing he's doing. So, I'm only going to mention a few things I really don't want to forget-- Winston says three words: mama, up, and no (always while shaking his head).
- He makes three animal sounds: a dog's woof, a lion's growl, and a cow's moo (which sounds more like a vacuum, maybe.)
- He says 'please', 'thank you', and 'all done' in sign language.
- He will point out eyes, nose, puka (bellybutton) and sometimes mouth on me, but not on himself.
- He hisses when he points and always does this when the microwave beeps or my phone beeps, and he will not stop until I check things out.
- His first molar cut through this week!
- We tried to teach him how to jump and now when we say "jump!", he gets up high on his tip-toes and takes a big step over and over again. He kind of looks like he is prancing around and it is sooooo funny and sooooo cute at the same time.
- His favorite book is still Itsy Bitsy Spider, but now when he asks me to read it he turns the first page so I will sing the song and then he spins around in circles and waves his arms around. If I try to go on the the next page, he'll come back and close the book and then re-open the first page to hear the song again.
- He likes to sing and dance and will do that same dance when I turn on any music.
- He is picky about textures when it comes to food (thanks daddy), but he currently loves strawberries and raisins.
- He waves to everyone, including Tyler and I, like a million times a day.
- He gives the best kisses ever, and sometimes ambushes you with them when you least expect it.
- He LOVES dogs.
- He LOVES the beach, especially the water/waves no matter how cold, and it is incredibly hard to keep a hold of him so he doesn't get washed away.
- He LOVES pointing out trucks, buses and airplanes and even points at the window everytime he hears one and we are inside.
Pointing out airplanes by LAX (sidenote: W often asks me to put his sunglasses on him, and he usually doesn't touch them once they're on)W was happy to point out and watch all the airplanes, but when this giant one flew by he came running for me and was a tad bit freaked out. It was pretty cute though :)
