| I CAN WALK! (a bit) |

| learning how to use silverware :) |
You have a number of words now - Mama, Dadda, Baba. Your new words are Ma for Genna and You like to say HI and wave to people :)
You also make a snort noise when you see a pig, a specific noise when you see a bird, growl for tiger/lion and you point to the sky when you hear a plane or see a picture of a plane. You also have a little book of pictures of us and you love to open it to the Dadda page and yell out DADDA!
You point and yell for everything else you want. Like if you see a particular toy you want but it's too high for you to reach, you point and say EH EH EH until I get the right thing down for you :)
When you woke up this morning and I got you out of bed you crawled down the hall to Genna's bedroom and starting pounding the door with your open hands yelling 'MA MA!'
I said no way - it's 6am we aren't waking her yet!!
Grandma taught you to kiss when we ask for one (love that one!) and to turn around and crawl off heights backswards (like our mattress on the floor). Because our staircase is SO steep we only let you crawl up, not down so you hadn't had the opportunity to learn that before.
I've only been giving you a spoon & fork for a few days but WOW so amazing how well you're doing! You are getting quite a bit of food into your mouth surprisingly!
This week you have started taking steps again. First it was one or two, but now a few days later you're getting more confident. Walking with your frankenstein arms straight out for 6-8 steps, falling then standing back up and doing it again. I think we'll be able to say we have a 'walker' within another week or so :)

| 2 weeks ago at starting big school (kindy orientation) - I was impressed with the smart board. You got to listen to a story which was great! |
 |
| The teacher also showed us how she could draw and put picture on the board |
 |
| craft time! |
 |
| The pictures are backwards, but Genna & I had some special time together before the SBS session (while Grandma watched Max). Fun hot chocolate ! |
 |
| Play time at home - he LOVES playing with Genna |
 |
| Cuddles for Baba |
 |
| Last weekend I took Max & Genna to a soft play centre - SO great cause everything is padded |
 |
| Too bad my new phone takes such horrible pictures, but you get the idea :) |
 |
| This week at SBS, after a performance by one of the kindy classes, each child got paired by with a year 5 buddy. They read a book together then did a drawing. The Moms had to wait outside - I was desperate to know what was going on!!! Genna came out with her buddy Anna and was thrilled :) A great experience - and now 1 big kid she knows when she starts next year! |
