Declan’s doing really well on the developmental checklist. I got to ‘nos’ because he’s not walking yet (thankfully). He’s saying ‘Mama’ and ‘Dada’ pretty much to the right people, although he did call one of our friends ‘Dada’ as well over the weekend. He can crawl and sit up and scoot along on his butt like I used to do, walks all around the house…points to things and asks for them apparently ‘please’ is ‘ah-babababa’ or maybe that’s bottle? We’re working on it.
But he can hold himself in a standing position for a short period of time without support, and he took those two faltering steps the other day. He can put things in things…which isn’t always the greatesting thing, and he knows where stuff goes when you take it away from him unfortunately.

As Mum is fond of saying, “You know you have a baby now!” boy do we…

In other things he’s in the 50-75 for weight and head circumference, although I’ve no real idea what that means, and off the chart for height LOL. In English he’s 21lbs 7 oz and 31 1/2 inches tall. No wonder he keeps pulling down the DVDs and things no matter where we put them!
