Nicky really blows my mind these days. Here’s what he’s up to:
- He’s putting together phrases more now, usually “more” something or something “please”.
- We’re spending lots of quality time on the potty chair. I’ve been having success about once a day, so that’s a start!
- Chuck brought an alphabet puzzle for Nicky when he came home from Columbus. It’s a wooden puzzle with pictures of things that start with each letter under the cutout. Not only can Nicky put together the puzzle well, he is starting to recognize many of the letters! He can’t really pronounce most of them, but he looks at the letter and immediately says the name of the word that begins with the letter. I can’t believe how quickly he’s picked up on letters already!
- He walks backwards sometimes; it’s very cute!
Meanwhile, I’m am absolutely LOVING Wii Fit! There are lots of things to do to keep me busy and working out without even realizing it. I’ve been making good use of Nicky’s naptime every day this week, and I’ve unlocked lots of things already. I particularly like hula-hooping, step aerobics and rhythm boxing. The balance games are lots of fun, too…you get a very good core workout without even realizing it, my kind of fun!
