I haven't blogged in over a month. Yeah I know horrible especially considering I was keeping this not only to get myself into the habit of writing but to keep a better record of the development on Trio. So I'm going to use this entry as a quick wrap up of what I have noticed of my son in the last month and hopefully be able to start keeping up better overall.
*A few months ago I was talking about Trio's lack of talking which is pretty much no longer an issue. Yes we still have moments where he babbles incoherently but he is a little chatterbox now. He has random moments of saying well-known phrases and at the right times. Two examples are where I was trying to get him to come sit next to me and stop bothering Albert when he was napping and he said "No". So I pretended to cry not expecting it to work because it never really does with him but he ran over to me, with concern all on his face and asked, "Mama? What's wrong?" Then the other day I was at the computer and I heard a thump from the playroom followed by an "Ah! Oh my God!" and I was looked over my shoulder like "What in the world?" He is also recognizing the places we go habitually and commenting on it. I am guessing I'm not too worried about needing a speech therapist as I was when we went to the doctor's at the beginning of the year.
*Summer Activities--about a month ago, we were going into Moonie's Burgers and a fellow Mom from our play group was walking out with her little ones. Trio saw the boy and then took off after them out of the restaraunt which lead me to believe that we need to start going to more playdates. I had been really lax in taking him to go go play but after that I decided to buck up and start drinking coffee and energy drinks because he needs to go play with his friends. So that is what we have been doing. Some of the most memorable events that come to mind was once when we went to Falcon Pointe pool. They have a little "splash pad" area and one of the things is this tall pole that has funnels that fill up with water and dunk. He looked like wanted to try it but was also nervous so I went under it by myself at first and from there he was fine with it. Once though he was running after a friend and ran under it at the "right" time so two of those funnels dunked on him, with enough pressure might I add to knock his arm floatie to his wrist. He just shook it off and walked back to me with his arm outstretched to push it back up.
Also this last week we went to Petco with the group and there was a cage with ferrets; two evil albino looking ones with creepy red eyes and one black and white one. The black and white one seemed to take to Trio and was pawing at the window to try to get out while Trio was laughing (although I guess in theory he could have been evil and wanted to claw his eyes out). At the top were some holes (I'm guessing for air) and the nice ferret stuck his nose out. By the time I got Trio over there to pet it, one of the alpha albino ones had knocked the other one out of the way and bite Trio. He jerked his hand back with a very affronted look and was like "Ow". But he didn't linger too much over it, which is good. We also went to the zoo with a friend who is visiting from out of town and that was fun just really really HOT!! But we did see lions, tigers, and meerkats! Sadly no bears but there was a monkey baby!! And a camel that made me nervous because it kept scowling at us. o.0
That is all I can think of right now but I will for sure try to start updating more so you can all read about my lovely boy!
