Josiah is one busy boy these days! He is working on walking but for now he still prefers crawling. I think he feels it's still the safest mode of transportation since he still tends to tip over when walking. He likes to be in whatever room we are in and thoroughly explores the room. He of course gets into whatever he finds interesting...usually cords, pens, papers, and anything else that toddlers find fascinating but are usually kept away from, oh cruel world! He has started to explore the world of tantrums and LOUDLY objects when things are taken away from him...sound familiar to you parents out there?? We are working on helping him find his "patient button" as my mom's friend Gloria calls it:-) So far, the search is still on:-) He is turning into Daddy's little helper and his most frequent word is "Dada". He thinks it's especially fun to wake Daddy up in the morning...I'm not sure Daddy thinks the waking up part is especially fun but it's hard to wake up crabby when you have a twinkly-eyed, smiling baby saying your name so excitedly:-) Josiah is still a BIG fan of water and bathtime. All I have to do is mention "fishy" and he heads to the bathroom. Side note: Fishy is what he calls the faucet cover (a big thank you to Great Grandma Greseth for Fishy!) His other favorite words include: Yite (light), O-kee (okie dokie), Thoo (shoe), Boon (balloon), Ih-kee (icky), Up (up), Oot (out) and Shees (cheese) I am working on capturing them all on one video but so far have been unsuccessful...we'll keep trying! Last night I discovered that Josiah has a natural talent for climbing stairs. I took him downstairs to "help" with the laundry and he crawled right over to the steps and up he went like he's been doing that for months! As far as I know, he's never attempted them before so I am giving him credit for being a natural. Natural climber...hmm, a mother's worst nightmare?? We'll see! Here are a few pictures from the past month and a couple videos to catch you up on Josiah's adventures:-)
Daddy's little helper! A little TV repair? No problem, we've got it Mom!
"Yite!" He is obsessed with lights and finds the pull string type that he can turn on and off by himself especially fun!
"But I don't WANT to help with laundry Mama!"
"Ishy!!"
"Check it out Mom, I'm a natural climber!!"
"Ishy" time!
Stair Climbing? No problem!
