Looks like we are going to need to start sleep training...

Likes: Food, food, and more food; his blankies; his sock monkeys (all three of them); playing with the big kids

Dislikes: Sleep; mom leaving; being barred from the remote, table, xbox, etc

Sleeping: His sleep is not getting any better.  We are going to have to start sleep training and probably use the crying it out method.  This week is going to be rough, but it can't be any worse than the last few weeks of no sleep.

Eating: Really enjoyed a potato and cheese empanada on Sunday.  Other than that, he's been enjoying the usual foods.  Although his appetite has definitely increased over the past week.  Growth spurt?

Playing: We've been playing a lot of ball and reading a lot of books.  Plus, he's loving riding Benny the Bull and walking with the walker.  More and more, I'm seeing him figure toys out.  So cute!

Medical Milestones: 

• Showing more opinions -- Check!  He has specific grunts and screeches for more food, done, give me, etc.
• Starting to use utensils -- Not yet.  Well, actually we've tried a spoon a while back, but that ended with food everywhere.  I guess I should reintroduce utensils this coming week.
• Engaging in more interactive games -- Check!  He loves hide and seek (he "hides", I seek), stacking blocks, and rolling the ball to different areas.

Schedule:Hoping sleep training can help get into an actual schedule...

Out and About: We had our usual baby activities (playground tour and blanket babies).  And we ran a ton of errands.  The usuals... This coming week we have some fun different activities planned.  We'll see how it goes.
