Things Abhi can do now...

As you can see in the picture, Abhi is now holding his own bottle. When I say it is time for milk, he goes and gets on the pillow to get ready. Course, he doesn't always drink, he likes to also play with the bottle which leads to milk everywhere. But, he is doing pretty good. He also is now drinking out of sippy cups frequently. I just bought him one with a straw and he likes it. I gave it to him this morning for the first time and he caught on immediately. He then proceeded to carry it with him everywhere this morning while he was playing. He was looking at his book with one hand and holding the cup in the other.

I am not sure if I have kept up what Abhi is able to do now on the blog so here are the latest things...
Up down with arms
Peek-a-boo (although he doesn't always cover his eyes)
Wave (knows bye bye means wave)
Go down stairs
Do upside down (bending over and looking through his legs)
Eating finger foods well - he is chewing good (he now has 4 teeth on the top to go with the 2 on the bottom, so he is having fun crunching cheerios and crackers between them)
Shaking his head no (and he knows what it means too)
Drink through a straw -new this morning

He is talking a ton too. However, I am not sure what he is saying most of the time. He is saying versions of ball, duck, and night night. I think I have heard attempts at buster and mooing like a cow. The latest is "hi" and "hi sweetie"(sounds like hi deetie). He has been saying hi sweetie for awhile but it took me awhile to figure out. I always say that to him which is where it comes from. But he says hi to people all the time now, it's cute.

Still spending time at the pool and Abhi loves the water. Here is a picture of Abhi after last Thursday's outing to the pool. He was a little tired!
