I sense not-so-peaceful times ahead…
February 1, 2011
Small boy, or J as you know him, is learning new things. A few days ago he learned to shake his head ‘no’. I’m not sure how I feel about that development. I mean getting a waving arm in my face when he didn’t want something was not nice, but now he is applying “no” to more things than just what is on the spoon coming towards him…
Today he was in front of me so I reached out with my hands, and he pulled himself to stand just holding 2 fingers! Wow, usually he’s been so hesitant that he has to lean on me to do it. He did it several times today. And during R’s kindermusik class (sharing time for the last 10 minutes) he was trouble for the first time… meaning he didn’t want to just sit, he was wiggly, and he kept trying to crawl away. I just have to keep telling myself all this is good development….not just a pain in my behind. 🙂
