The Cowx clan is adjusting well to life with a second baby. Our little science experiment (aka Will) continues to entertain and amaze us. For those of you not living with a toddler...here's some of the things he's up to now.
Physically:
- Approximately 34" tall.
- 26lbs (official weigh in this month at his first ever sick visit to the doctor's office).
- Walks and runs.
- Stomps feet and squeals when excited.
- Climbs up onto the ottomans and couch (sort of), thank goodness he is NOT climbing out of the crib yet!
Interests:
- Trains (or "choo-choo"), cars, and anything with buttons (DVD player, cell phone, remote controls, hand vacuum, drill, camera)
- The TV - yes, it starts this early. His favorite this week is a video called "Opposites", he of course also still loves the "Baby Signing Time" video series.
- Watching himself (in videos), or seeing himself in the mirror.
Vocabulary:
- There are new words every day. We are amazed with how much he comprehends and is now trying to verbalize. Current count of about 50 single words.
- Will also signs lots, which helps us understand what he wants. In addition to the words he says, there are another couple dozen that he recognizes and/or uses.
Cool Tricks:
- Opinionated. He has preferences and he's not afraid to tell us what he wants and doesn't want.
- Singing along to nursery rhymes.
- Identifying body parts. He can point to about a dozen different body parts when asked. He is particularly fond of noses and belly buttons. He also has just learned "butt"...lovely.
