22 months

My first born is now 22 months!

I have been finding it a bit hard lately, with our eminent arrival of baby #2, and with all that has been happening (finishing work, selling house, and moving house - all of which I will write down at some point!) to really spend as much quality time with Cadell as I would have liked while we still have this  one-on-one time.

He is still not really talking much, although he is comprehending so much more every day, has figured out that there is a baby in mummy's tummy and will cuddle and kiss my belly. He will also offer the baby a drink through my belly button as he does with all his toys and the dogs these days. He did say 'Baby' one day, and I think he said 'birdie' also. Birds are his favourite thing still, and he loves balls and balloons, playing outside, the dogs. He's not as keen on the TV, but when he does watch it he loves 'mr blooms nursery' and 'Justin's house'.

He is becoming a very helpful little boy and will follow simple instructions well. His general nature is still very sweet and shy and caring. He does however have typical boy in him, and will hit and kick as he is testing his strength. We have noticed that he will obviously change personalities and becoming very cranky, tantrums and lots of crying/screaming when he is not well (very not well not just a cold) as he has had 2 double ear infections in the last 2-3 months and still has one inflamed ear and while he was unwell and not getting enough pain relief he was so different to how he is normally.

18 months old

Our little boy is a year and a half! Time is flying by at the moment. So far, he hasn't been saying too much, but I think he has been trying to say a few things such as 'truck' and babbling in his own lanaguage. He also says 'Yeah' when we ask him something and its something he wants! He is understanding so much now though. We can ask him questions and he definitely knows what we are saying and what he wants/doesn't want!! if we ask him 'where's your tummy/nose/mouth/etc' he will find them and point. He is running everywhere, loves kicking balls around the house + outside, although when he is outside he seems to prefer to explore, try and dig with a little shovel, and play in water! He is fascinated with spinning around at the moment, I think he likes the dizzy feeling he gets!

Daycare

This week has been a funny week, I didn't go to work at all on Monday as Cadell was coughing so much he was vomiting and just generally not well so I didn't want to send him to daycare. On Tuesday he was still not well, so I took him to the Doctors early, and he gave us antibiotics for two inflamed ears. He said he was ok to send to daycare though, so I took him to daycare where there was a new person looking after him. I wasn't too happy about leaving him, he was upset and I didn't like to leave him with a new person when he was already unwell and upset. But I had to go to work. Wednesday I was feeling sick but I went to work, I phoned daycare at lunch and they said he was upset and not eating so I left work and went to take him home. So today I am full of cold, Cadell seems a little better but still not eating well so I am going to make him pancakes for morning tea when he wakes up to see if he will eat them. I think Cadell and I have been sick on and off for ne...
