Getting Bigger!
El nino spent the last weekend at Grandma's house. And he succeeded in doing some new things. Mommy brought a big Mickey Mouse with us to leave at grandma's. It is just about the size of el nino, and for no particular reason he was never given the opportunity to play with it at his own house. Now Mickey rested on top of his stroller, and el enjoyed looking up at him. So we brought it down to his lap where he proceeded to grab it with both hands and put Mickey's nose into his mouth. This was a new trick we were all pleased to observe.The other new trick also involved the stroller (we don't, as yet, have a stroller, but grandma has one at her house that we use to put el in when we are eating in the kitchen). When we put el nino in the stroller this weekend, he began to push himself forward. It looks like we are moving closer to the "sitting up on his own" phase.
A month has passed since our last visit to see Grandma. And she was pleased as punch to see how much el has grown. What a big boy (12 pounds)!
