This post is a couple days late...oh well, it's here now. It's amazing how much can change in one month. Rhonen is now sitting and standing very well. In fact, all he wants to do is stand...on whatever he can find. He stands in his crib, he stands at the table, he stands at his activity center, dishwasher, bathtub, and just about everything else. This has lent itself to a lot of bumps and bruises along the way, but I guess he has to learn sometime.With all the extra activity he sure is eating...a lot! He's hungry every 2 1/2 hours and we had to start giving him a bottle at 11pm. He is also graduating to finger foods, which he finds very liberating. Each occasion he starts talking, ya ya ya...ie ie ie...it's very cute. This past week he had a little growth spurt and is now busting out of the 12 month size...the transition to 18 months seems like a big jump to me but I guess it's better too big than too small.
This month has also brought the beginning of intense protesting, which he has never done before but now is a regular occurrence. He usually stops within a few minutes and sometimes I find it difficult to hold back the laughter. This is his transitional period from baby to toddler and I find it fascinating to watch!
