Ring Around The Rosy
A few little Elias stories.
Janney, Asher and Elias were playing ring around the rosy, and Elias is getting the concept, he's crouching down when the kids say fall down. Too cute.
My little walking man is really progressing in leaps and strides. After the weekend in Edmonton, in the sling almost the whole time, it seemed he had regressed a little, but then he started to walk longer and longer distances. Last night Stuart watched him start at the mudroom end of the kitchen, walk towards him, stop at a piece of wood, crouch down, pick it up and progress to the livingroom door. He's getting stronger and is managing his balance better, stopping to gain his balance, or speeding up so as not to fall.
Elias loves the bathroom. The joy of playing in the toilet, or with the plunger or with the garbage is unsurpassed.. the final straw was finding him in the shower eating soap. I have put up the baby gate in front of the bathroom now, and we all have to climb over to use the loo.
Unsurpassed? well.. maybe playing with the hammer or rubber mallet or drill is better than the toilet..
And going outside is a real treat, the trampoline is lots of fun, to a point. He loves to crawl on the tramp, but then Janney and Asher come along and make popcorn out of him and he flattens to his tummy and endures the ride, until he's had enough and calls out for help. But he always goes back with a smile..
Can't wait for some really warm weather to make outside play the staple around here!! |
