month 13

Travis now has 8 front teeth and 2 molars. Strangely enough, his molars came through very early (when he only had 5 of his front teeth).Tooooot.What's this, Dylan? Oh, sand, not so sure about that!Glued to the tv because Bumba the clown is on.Isn't he funny!I want one of these mama! Pam's blackberry was quite possibly Travis' favourite 'toy' ever.

Travis loves to climb!

Clever me! I left Dylan and the sun cream alone for 1 minute... the first thing he said when I came back was: 'It wasn't me, Travis did it!' Why don't i believe him?

10 months

I have taken very few photos since the holiday. The main reason being that Travis came back sick. He had the chicken pox. Bad! He had an ear infection. In both ears. He had a cold. He had a cough. To top it all off, his first 2 top teeth arrived as well! (The third is now on its way!)

He still managed to be cheerful through most of it. Then he bounced and giggled and cuddled and waved and clapped and leopard crawled and played hide and seek and destroyed Dylan's train tracks and just generally kept us all entertained. He did most of this with his tongue sticking out of his mouth...

teeth!

Travis is now the proud owner of 2 teeth! (They came through about 2 weeks ago!)

Hmmm, not sure you can see them so you'll just have to take my word for it...

For the record...

Firstly, a very big hug and lots of kisses for Dylan's granny! Happy birthday and lots of love, XXX!

Dylan's been a very busy boy the last couple of weeks:

His incisors came through, so he now has a mouth full of teeth (16!)

He can walk backwards and on tiptoes.

He can run, this is always preceded by shouting 'ready, sty, go'.

He can lie down on his back from sitting.

He understands the concept of up and down.

He has also added a whole lot to his vocab, my favourites being oepths(oeps), tuck(truck), (ba)nana, nano(mango), shoe and tea,

He can point out, name and make the sounds for a very long list of animals (which I will spare you!).

He can also point out most of his body parts when asked. Here he is after his bath, sitting in his favourite spot upstairs:

where's your nose?

your eyes?

your tummy?

your elbow?

your fingers?

your toes?

Ok, ok, no more!
