So it's been a while since I have updated... So, we have 3 teeth now and I feel tooth #s 4-6 will be coming shortly. For Eli teething consists of alot of chewing on his fingers, sleeping and crankiness. But thus far we are doing well with it. The whole teething process is quite insane and its sad that it hurts the baby :( But they've got to come in!
In terms of interaction its amazing, we are now experiencing light 'seperation anxiety' and likes to be held by me, my dad and my mom, everyone else gets cries and he just wants his mom.. He will basically twist around in that person's arms to find someone he knows then puts his hands up. It's super cute!
We are clapping, waving, holding very small things. One thing I think its really cool is his attention to detail- he takes his index finger and feels small details on clothes, toys, chairs, et. He also will notice little things that others might not. We were sitting outside tonight and a flock of birds flew out of the tree in the yard and his eyes followed them up to the sky. A breeze went by a piece of newspaper outside and he watched it rustle. I wonder what it will mean in the future..
He talks, not a ton, but when he wants to say something he will. No definitive words yet but I hear 'dadadasdadadas' (which is generally the beginning of language sound) and I can SWEAR he says 'mamamamamamama' :) I am in no rush.
We aren't crawling yet, but we def. can move everywhere and anywhere and open and close drawers, cabinets, etc!!
All is going well. I start work at the end of next month so he will be going into daycare for abt 9 weeks and it's something I am working on dealing with but I hope it will be a good, positive experience for him. I guess time will just tell- you know? But I am going to strive to maintain the same nightly schedules and be as flexible as I can be during the day. He will in the same building I am working out of so if I am ever needed I can be there in under a minute which makes me feel good!!
Okay- time to put Mr. Eli to bed (10 months, 1 week old now!) :D
