Working in yard with grandma

Minnesota Summertime

We are back in Minnesota for some summer fun, and Alex's favorite part so far has been "Ga-Ga" - the word both for his tigers, any stuffed animal, and in this case, the resident dog Cundrie. Cundrie isn't sure about all the attention and has been known to sneak down to the basement.

We also think Alex's word for Ben is "BA!" usually shouted - and he also says "Ga-Goo" which is an imitation of thank you.

Alex has been experiencing a bit of separation anxiety and has really wanted mommy time both daytime and night - I think a new place combined with new independence skills has made the adjustment hard. But today he had a great time at the playground with Grandma Zannah and Grandpa Chuck while mommy went to hang out with her friend Saebra so all was good!

Stacking and Talking

Alex, with the walking now mastered, has moved onto other fun stuff!

Yesterday while playing with Daddy he stacked four little wooden blocks one on top of another. He's also got lots of words now, including:

- Agua
- Mama, Dada
- Patos (Zapatos)
- eeyougo (Here you Go)
- bye, bye
- truck (with vigorous pointing)
- duck
- cracker
- "mas" (more of a hand signal)
