- When he sees a picture with more then 1 ball, apple, truck, etc... he says - oo (=one), tu (=two). Which shows he understands plurals!
- He imitates us a lot. Yesterday he grabbed Jason's running hat and ipod holder (an armband). and dressed himself as he was ready to go for a run. He then said 'bye-bye' to us and headed for the door!- He laughs and smiles a lot. He is truly happy (most of the time) and encourages us to laugh too.(he is pretty successful at that!) he looks at us for approval, with a smile, when he tries out new things and words.
- If he sees anything dirty, he wants to clean it. He goes and grabs the disinfectant wipes and he cleans. He also uses his broom often.
- In the morning, specially on weekends, we bring him in bed with us when he wakes up. Most of the times he is in a good mood and he plays with us for 30 min before asking for food. It's adorable because he cuddles, tickles, is tickled, giggles, plays 'peekaboo' and is a happy little toddler! It's a great way to wake up in the morning.
- He climbs up chairs and sofas very easily and says 'yeah' when he gets on the top. (as we always encourage and cheer him).
- He loves music and really enjoys dancing.
- He is sweet to Vinny but also knows what Vinny should not be doing (which he has learned from watching us). He then walks to Vinny, points his finger and says 'nonono tity'.
- He loves to play in the sand.
- He is repeating (or attempts to repeat) anything we say to him.
- He knows the colors blue, red and (we are working on the) green.
- He loves to jump and run across our bed. (at anytime)
- He loves his bath time and splashing around, playing with his bath toys and filling empty shampoo bottles with water and emptying them out on his head. (followed by a big smile!)
- He used to say 'uuu' when he wanted to come up. Now he has mastered the uuuP. Now we are working on the Please instead of the ease.
- He is always very happy to see me when I pick him up at daycare. His eyes cheer up and he comes running with his open arms!
- He says ta tou (=thank you) instead of ta.
- He recognizes several people in the pictures we keep in our house. Oma, Opa, Grandma, Grandpa and titio. He does say 'baby' when looking at the pictures of him as a little baby!
- He is always a bit shy when we first arrive at a new location, with 'new' people. But it does not take that long for him to feel at home and run around!
- He continues to love books! He constantly is asking to be read a story and can spend hours by his book shelves looking at his books.
- He continues not being that interested in food. But he loves corn, fish sticks, sausage, mashed potatoes, green beans, ANY fruit and yogurt.
- Yesterday he was able to take of his pants by himself (big step towards potty training!)
- He enjoys to walk instead of being in his pram. Sometimes it is a fight to get him in it since he wants to be on his feet, exploring everything. A normal 10min walk with Vinny can take 30mins with Kaio walking along!
- He loves his little Crocks (Scooby doo once) and continues having stinky baby feet (adorable!!!)
This list could go on and on as he is doing so many things and is so much fun! But bottom line, he is an adorable little toddler that is developing nicely.
Pics showing some of the above:
