51?!

Wow! That means next week.....oy!

Ok jumping in...
*I never blogged about how he went through a stage where during story time, he would throw his pacifier on the ground. I think it was when he started learning bed time or nap time was next. Luckily he stopped that after a little while, but it was interesting to see how smart he is haha. Frustrating though, since those round pacifiers roll!!
*he got a new car seat!! It's so awesome and KR says it looks like a captain's chair in a spaceship. The best part is it has special fabric to keep him cool. He's always been so hot blooded (check and see...haha jk) and it was perfect timing with the heat wave we had last week. High 80s. It helped so much! We spent a bit more than we planned because at the last minute I decided I wanted to keep him rear facing for a while. So this one is convertible. Technically, this could be the only carseat you ever buy. It works for 5-110lbs. Although I don't think I would feel comfortable putting a baby that small in it. But it's very cushiony and luxurious! Haha. And most new car seats have these little slots to store the metal buckles so they don't get hot and burn you. So awesome! Dean likes it much better than his squishy old one.
*he really started screaming when he gets excited. At least earlier in the week he really did it a lot. I think as the week went in though, his tooth is bugging him so he's a little less happy. But still happy.
*so I forgot to say last week that his top second left tooth broke through and this week hes been breaking a bottom second left tooth. He was so happy and doing so well last week that I totally didn't realize a new one was starting. But later this week, hes been showing it more. Poor guy.
*he pinches his eyes closed if you close yours. And he has discovered our nose and eyes. He still does his tongue trick too.
*he can kind of get off the couch now. Err don't really let him up there much, and he can't get up himself, but he's learning to slide off on his tummy. We really think he's going to be a climber though.
*getting sturdier with walking but still doesn't just walk. He tries more often on some days though.
*one of the hot days, Dean and I went to the zoo. It was actually our first time alone. It was hot but fun. Until, Dean rubbed his eye and hot sunscreen in his eye. I felt so bad!! I stopped in the shade, tried to flush it with water but imagine how hard that would be with a water bottle that you have to pinch and suck at the same time to get water out, all while trying to hold Dean down and pry his eye open. Didn't work very well. And he wouldn't leave it alone. It was so red. When he calmed down a bit and left it alone a little more, I just kept him distracted with puffs and took him to first aid. I'm so glad I did. He used a solution to rinse. Dean didn't like it but it was not nearly as red after and I felt better. I was so worried he would go blind haha.
*KR finished his surgery rotation!! He actually enjoyed the work, just not the hours. He also had quite a few more times in clinic than he should have, which was frustrating. They don't do much and definitely don't learn the stuff on the test. Oh well. Wet survived what we thought would be the worst. On to peds. It's already a good start because he doesn't have to be there Monday until 8. Compared to 530am.
*Dean doesn't do his fake laugh anymore when we laugh! It's crazy how fast he changes! But now he does a fake cough haha. Equally adorable.
*something I've never blogged and I want to remember, even if it's a tiny bit frustrating haha. When we feed Dean something on a spoon, after every bite, Dean puts his hand, usually left, up to his mouth. The position of his hand is kind of like a salute, and his first finger or two go in, sideways. This always makes sure he gets the food all over his hand and that it spreads every where else....
*he's realllly walking on his knees a lot haha. Its not just a few scoots anymore. He still crawls, and also does real walking, but he walks on his knees haha. So cute.
*we hung out with Emily and Reagan quite a but this week, taking advantage of the warm weather and getting some exercise in. It was so nice.
