Well, a lot has happened this week, but work kind of gets in the way of updates!
Anyway, the weekly routine lately has been Music Together, Finger Babble, Library Laptime, work, and Friday excursion. Dylan does a million and one cute things that I think, “gotta blog it”, but then the moment morphs into a new one and I start to lose track!
Well, we discovered Organic Food Bar Oooatmeal bars, thanks to Candi and Kees (who kindly shared some of Kees’s snack with Dylan during Finger Babble last week!). Dylan just loves this stuff. In fact, he liked it so much that he remembered what the wrapper looked like (!) and when we went grocery shopping, he spotted them (they were close to his eye level!) and started going absolutely nuts! He started yammering on, picked one up, and attempted to eat it straight through the wrapper!
We also had a very, very full day of drawing, writing and playing at Auntie Cindy’s house; Dylan was pooped out, cranky and totally disinterested in riding in his car seat…until I whipped out one of those Oooatmeal bars! After that, he was all conversation and cheers (and, lucky me, I got a peaceful ride home!).
Ooother things: Today, Dylan strung two words together: “more” and “coffee” and also spent a fair amount of time behind the wheel — first in our car, while we waited for my duathlon to start (it was 47F outside! Brrrr….), and then at Toys R Us (he sat in a demo corvette located at the front of the store). He has also mastered his ride-on toys! In the short space of a week, he went from being able to go only backwards to being able to propel himself around in both directions. It’s very cute.
Back Log: At this time last year, Dylan rolled over from back to tummy (Read post).
