As always, here are 5 special reasons I'm loving my boys this week:
1. When Justin's being really bad I'll pop his hand. When he started climbing on the stove I told him to stop being bad and to get down, and when he stepped down he popped his own hand.
2. Justin went to town on dinner last night; fish, brown rice and mixed vegetables. J loved the fish but would only eat the corn out of the mixed veggies so he'd sift through the veggies looking for and shouting out corn and then conveniently drop everything else on the floor.
3. I've been working with Justin on breaking off pieces of food by himself but when I tell him to take a bite of something he grabs my hand and puts it on said item, in essence forcing me to do it for him. But after 3 tries, J walked up to the cereal bar with his mouth wide open and bit off a piece.
4. I was wrapping up a conversation with my mother in law so I asked Justin if he wanted to talk to his Nana and he reached out his arms, pulled the phone to his ear, whispered who knows what and then yelled out bye and pushed the phone back to me.
5. Justin was on my bed and saw one of Carl's credit cards so I said "oh no" but then realized he saw my wallet and was trying to put the card in my wallet, in the right spot no less.
Every entry just confirms what I already knew: Justin is BRILLIANT! :-)
ReplyDeleteGood news: It sounds like Justin's appetite is improving.
