Demani - version 17.0 months

Well, little man is 17 months already!

Demani - version 17.0 months:

  • Says no, even to things he likes or really does want
  • Sleeps an average of 11 hours a night, cuddled with his puppy, in his crib, in his room (Praise the Lord!)
  • Says baby and enjoys exposing and patting mommy's ever enlarging belly
  • Says kitty and amuses self by chasing kitty through the house
  • Says momma and dada
  • Will bring a book to me or dad to read
  • Yesterday he told me (without words) that he wanted to dance to the Doodlebops
  • Eats chicken, organic nitrate free hot dogs, rice, ravioli, zucchini, carrots, grilled cheese, and tons of fruit
  • Thinks its a blast to feed himself yogurt or rice with a spoon
  • Climbs everything imaginable (including on top of the dining room table, gulp)
  • If we are getting ready to leave he will go to the closet and reach for his coat
  • When I say bath time he goes to the door of the bathroom and pounds on the door
  • Enjoys knocking on doors
  • Enjoys pushing the garage door button to put it up and down
I just recently turned version 30.0 and enjoyed a party put together by my loving husband. It was a wonderful surprise and a fabulous birthday. In spite of the rough terrain that arises under your feet as a result of moving, thirty's looking pretty good, I must say. The adventure continues!! Part of the 'adventure' is not always knowing whats around the bend and not knowing exactly where the path is taking you. You would think I have this lesson learned by now, but apparently this is not the case!!

The twins are doing well! One is a boy and one is a girl (if I haven't mentioned that before). We will be having dr appts I think every week from here on out. It's a blast to see them on the ultrasound kicking each other and moving all over the place. We got to see baby girl take a big gulp of amniotic fluid. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! If I get the chance to figure it out, I will try to scan some ultrasound pics and post them.

Unfortunately, I can't find the camera cord to transfer pics in order to post...I will keep looking.

Yep, you guessed it, the fun in the sun did not happen in NY! We were in FL to see friends and get some family time and Mathwon mixed in work in there as well. We had a great time visiting with our friends Troy, Angel, Elijah, and Josie. Demani had his first visit to the ocean and we were a bit surprised at this reaction to the sand and the water. He wanted NOTHING to do with the sand - if it got on his hands or his feet he was instantly unhappy. We had to hold him the entire time we were on the beach at our first visit. He slowly warmed up to the beach by the time we left FL but he would only stand on wet sand with his sandals on. He still wanted nothing to do with the dry sand. It was wonderful to be able to go outside and take a walk in the warm weather. And I am a big fan of the beach:) I actually would have Demani take his nap in the stroller and I would put him in the shade and I would get to sit on the beach and read. What a luxury!! It was fun to see him explore new things and play with Elijah and Josie. It makes me excited for him and the siblings he will have to play with!

He is learning something new and understanding more and more each day. He is perfecting his animal sounds and has added baaa for sheep and meow for kitty. He has learned how to say no and enjoys expressing his opinion through pointing, shaking his head, and whining. Needless to say, we are ready for him to begin using words :)
