This post is so great, it doesn't need a picture.
Today, Johnny let go and took 3 consecutive steps. Mom was my witness and John was in the kitchen. Then, a few hours later, I was in the kitchen and Johnny took 3 consecutive steps to Daddy! And he wasn't even wearing his AFOs :) We've all noticed how much more flat-footed he is in just the one month he's been wearing them.
Now, remember Johnny track record. He likes to show us he is capable of doing something and then make us wait weeks before he does it on a consistent basis. We can't wait to post a video of him soon walking across the living room. There is no doubt that is coming...
He's so awesome.
Oh, wait! You need a 14 month update...Ok!
- He has started signing! So exciting, especially since he's still not saying much of anything. Just to know he's comprehending and communicating back to us is awesome. His favorite sign is "more"--as in "more food"--no shocker there!
- Playing peek-a-boo, blowing kisses, waving bye-bye, pointing.
- Shapes! He is so good at the blue & red Tupperware shape ball. He'll pick up a shape piece, we'll turn the ball to that shape and damn if he doesn't get that correct shape in with ease.
- Hitting--more like whacking! We're trying to teach him gentle, and we do hope he gets it soon. He's so excited and combined with his spastic movements, you're bound to get bopped on the head, when really, he's just trying to tell you he loves you :)
- Dancing--this kid is just like his Mommy in that department--he hears tunes and he starts groovin'.
- Smolder. Yep, kids got smolder. After bath, when he's all fresh and clean and his smooth, silky hair is combed just right, he's Baby George Clooney.
