Climbing Monkey

Walker is really enjoying having Mommy and Daddy home for summer! He's also quickly growing attached to the idea that we will always be around and is becoming more emotional when we aren't...or if we leave the room and a "strange" person (meaning he doesn't see them on a frequent basis) is in the room with him.

He's doing great learning how to use his sippy and we hope to have replaced the bottle by the end of this month. We're also starting stage 3 foods...hoping that's a smooth transition. He's climbing alot these days...thankfully we don't have stairs! Here's a video of him climbing his stroller. This is new.

A typical day for him currently looks like this:
6:30-7:00 WAKE UP
7:00-7:30 Play time and watch a little TV (usually Yo Gabba Gabba)
7:30 Breakfast (oatmeal or rice cereal and a jar of fruit)
8:45 8 oz. bottle
9:00 Nap (usually an hour and a half to 2.5 hours...)
Playtime from when he wakes up until lunch.
11:30 Lunch (a veggie and a fruit...sometimes another of the two)
12:45 8 oz. bottle
1:00 Nap (time varies significantly)
Playtime until next feeding (outside, books, toys, etc...)
4:30 8 oz. bottle
4:45 Playtime
5:45-bed Dinner (2 veggies and a fruit), then family walk, bath, bedtime routine...
7:00 ish Prayers, bottle and bed (usually will fall sound asleep on this bottle, but every now and then wants to insist on staying up later, which we typically will give in to after a few tries of getting him to lay down.)
