Week Glance...

Week Glance (Monday, July 28th - Sunday, August 3rd, 2008)

• 4th Tooth has broken through ~ Top front right tooth!!
• His kisses are my favorite
• He's done really well with words this week: up, apple, all done, gone, mama, dog, woof
• Alexander brought home lots of "art" projects from school which also meant he brought home painted shirts - thankfully I was able to remove the paint this time around
• He had a very good week of school - played outside at the playground, went on the swings, and played in the gym
• He even showed school how he can drink from a big boy cup but ended up getting water all over himself
• Started a new thing this week where he will fight to take baths however he loves baths & water so it's surprising when he does put up a fight
• Has done a great job brushing his teeth this week
• Went to Dr. M's office for the 2nd part of his MMR short on Wednesday - he *hated* every second of it once he saw Dr. M - I know the 3rd will be just as bad. Hopefully he won't be afraid of the building in September for his 18th month appt (he doesn't get any shots then so that's good)
• May have a growth spurt this week as he ate two whole things of squash by himself for dinner on Wednesday and then 1 & 1/2 hot dogs on Thursday & Saturday nights
• Is getting really good about feeding himself with a fork & spoon
• Daddy had Alexander duty Friday night as Mommy went to cousin Sean's wedding
• This was the first night in a very long time that Daddy had bedtime duty and he did very well
• Had a lowkey weekend at home
• Went for his walk/playground jaunt with Daddy on Saturday and did the same thing with Mommy on Sunday (minus the Dunkin' Donuts stop)
• Went out to dinner on Saturday night with Mommy & Daddy to Post Office Pub - he didn't flirt nearly as much as he usually does, but he was very well behaved
• He tried broccoli, cauliflower, sour pickles & mozzarella at dinner and only spit out a bit of the cauliflower
• Loves to eat limes
• Played outside on Sunday
• Daddy brought him to Uncle Steven & Carolyn's house on Sunday afternoon - they played in the pool for a bit
• Ate a chocolate chip cookie after dinner on Sunday and REALLY liked it
