*last week I forgot to mention, he does this adorable wrist thing. When he's reaching for something or sometimes just playing. He flicks/twists his wrist and hand. The best way to describe it is if you were flicking something away from you. It's gentle and just makes me smile. Sometimes he holds his thumb with his other hand, which is how he does it while playing. Or if my hair is hanging down in front of him while he's cradled in my arms. It's so sweet and tender. He's never grabbed my hair on purpose. Just when it gets in his hands and he just happens to close his fist.
*tooth popped!! We've seen it so close but Tuesday morning I checked and it looks like its out!!! He seemed to slightly sleep better for like half a day and then we think the other one is bothering him too/now. Never ending....
*as he rolls over, he's starting to be a little higher on his elbow-closer to getting to a sitting position. That will be the best day because once he falls over he is so mad until he can be sitting again, which requires our help.
*crawling!! Ok so he took one "step" but it happened and we both saw it! Haha. Now for him to do it again haha.
*Dean had his first thanksgiving!! We went for our own personal turkey trot and ran a 5k!! That was my goal after having Dean-run a 5k by thanksgiving! So I did it! It was fun to run with KR again. We don't get to very often anymore. After, we got ready and went to KRs parents for thanksgiving dinner! Dave and Kelly came again and it was fun to chat with family and relax, for the most part. Dean isn't able to nap much, if any, when we are over there, so he was a little grumpy, but he actually did pretty well. He got to eat sweet potatoes (although he has been for weeks) and banana (which apparently he doesn't like anymore. Sad!)
*we got our first Christmas tree!!! It was almost dark when we went out so we had to hurry but we think we got a good one! We wound up having to leave it though and we can't go back until Sunday to get it.
*bababa and Mamama. He goes back and forth between the two. We are trying to teach him the associations so he figures out what he's saying(ball and mama).
*I've been doing the signs for eat and all done. A week or two ago he really would watch when I did eat. No matter what he was doing, if I said eat and did the sign, he would turn back to the spoon and look at me intensely like he was learning. Now this week, he's started smiling when I do it. Progress?
*my friend lent me her electric double pump. So much help now that I'm pumping!
*he's started shutting his eyes tightly, randomly. At first I thought something es in his eye but nope. It's adorable and his new thing.
*also, he's starting to scrunch his nose up when he smiles and laughs. Haha. Cute!
*what does the alligator say? It doesn't say anything. It's very quiet. UNTIL IT EATS YOU!
