What else has Silas been up to?



With going back to work and the busyness of summer trips to the beach, visits to the park and attending weddings, I have just not been able to keep up with blogging. But I have really missed commenting on our family's quirks and changes as Silas grows.



I think Josh and I are almost ready to leave "baby" behind and move on to calling Silas a "toddler." A hard transition though! It is, however, undeniable that he toddles everywhere, loves to climb, likes to babble and is starting to demand instead of request- with subsequent mini head-thrown-back, foot-stomping, back-arched tantrums if those demands are denied. Silas can also point to his nose, toes, tummy, hands and feet. We are working on eyes and ears, but he most definitely knows where his "weiner" is too. He has discovered animal noises as well and can "moo," "bah", "sniff" (coupled with nose scrunching to represent a mouse ) and "neigh" (although it admittedly sounds more like a Morgan Hawkes cackle). Silas continues to be a tough kid who barely fusses if he slips off dad's skateboard or trips onto the ground or slips facefirst into the lake or his baby pool . He obviously can't get enough of the water hose either!
