Goodnight Gorilla is one of his favorite books. It’s funny that he makes this high-pitched sound when he flips through books. It’s also funny to see him get so easily distracted by his pacifier.

I caught this little guy reading one of his books today. He was actually touching the different textures on some of the pages. I’m glad I kept the video rolling because I also saw how he tried to engage in two things at once. The book was interesting but the ball kept distracting him. At one point, he tried to keep the ball close while reading his book but couldn’t quite coordinate the two together. I love watching this kid play.
reading and writing
Peanut was enjoying one of his favorite books this afternoon.

Janie rediscovered her Boogie Board and wrote the word “computer”. That’s also a drawing of a laptop underneath it.

This guy is a little out of control in the the bathtub lately. Might be time for a bigger tub.
Happy Guy
This afternoon, Peanut was in a great mood. He must have known it was the longest day of the year. When Mama came home, he played by himself on the floor while Mama cleaned up.
Then we took a walk to Safeway and he had a fun time looking at himself in the mirror under while we were in line.

On our walk home, he was talking to himself and making the “wah-wah” sounds all the way home.
New trick!
At dinner this evening, Peanut figured out how to do this:

Feeding Brother
Janie helped feed her little brother this morning while Mama was washing dishes.

Communication

Peanut has been doing a lot more social interaction lately. The most beneficial is now that he knows that if he says “mum-mum”, he’ll get more. It’s SO much better than his screaming. He also started doing a mischievous nose scrunch to get a reaction.
sister’s toys
Peanut always tries to play with his big sister’s toys but she doesn’t usually let him.
Today while Janie was taking a bath, Mama let him play with the Magna-Tiles that were neatly stacked on the floor.
He had a great time knocking down the stacks and playing with the pieces.

belly laughs
Mama was taking a nap in the bedroom when she heard this little guy cracking up.
