Good weeks fly by

William is picking up new tricks at an amazing pace. He sits up on his own. He splashes in the bath. He throws his toys, sometimes even intentionally (I think). He says “Mamamamamamama” or “Mom mom mom mom.” He smiles and giggles when he sees me. He screams incosolably when he’s hungry. He has figured out all the toys on his exersaucer. He drinks out of glasses/spills stuff down his shirt with very little help. He still loves to watch traffic.

I’m sure there are more “new” developments that he’s undergone in the past couple of weeks, but I can’t think of them off the top of my head. He’s growing like a baby, nearly 18 and a half pounds now. The other night I was moving my finger up and down on his lips (which causes him to say “ooooooo” to make fun sounds) and when I took my finger away, he grabbed my hand, and guided my finger back to his mouth, so I’d do it some more. I really like that trick.

Just to explain Dave’s comment from the last post - check out Puzzle Pirates if you’re in a game playing kind of mood. I don’t have a functional computer at home right now, so I can’t really check it out myself. It does look fun though.
