The days are flying by, and the little lad is still crawling by.
Despite our best efforts, Jack is still crawling around the house and not showing a great interest in walking much. Which is fine, as I’m sure that when he does walk, he’ll be a nightmare to keep in one place!
He will, however, climb up and over almost anything that will support his body weight, as well as hanging on things too. These include things like radiators, speaker cabinets, or anything in sight that a 1yr old kid can grab enough of. He’ll even lay facedown on top of one of the speakers next to the television, legs and feet up in the air, with his arms stretched out in front of him trying to reach the wires behind the telly!
He’s also getting a dab-hand at using the phone too. Each time he picks up the phone, he looks at it, pointing and saying ‘Daaa’ at the same time expecting to see a photo of his pa. He even managed to get hold of the cordless house phone the other weekend and phone his grandparents down the road – Claire’s dad had to call my mobile to tell me that they could hear everything that we was saying, as the little monster had dialled and then wandered off to play with his tractor! Good job it was someone we know, and local too!!
He’s getting better with his identifying of real-world objects, with some thanks to the flash cards that we’ve put around his room. I still like to test him regularly with where the Bus is, or where the Tank or Digger is. He’s getting much better and now when we look out the window and he see’s a car, it goes' something like this:
Daddy: Jack, what’s that?
Jack: Kaaaaaa
Daddy: Yes that’s right – what noise does a car make?
Jack: brum brum
It’s quite funny. Well, it makes me smile anyway!
