YIKES!!! It's been too long since I've blogged about sweet Christian! A lot of ups and downs have happened over the past 5 months. Christian lost a sweet brother or sister in November when I was about 12 weeks along. We look forward to meeting that sweet baby in Heaven and we're praying for the Lord to bless us with another baby soon. It is in His hands!
Christian has been growing smarter and smarter every day! He has a large vocabulary of signs now and loves to communicate with us! Just today within 30 minutes of picking him up at my sister-in-laws he said and signed "water" to show me the pond outside their window, "all done" and "down" to ask to get out of his seat, "cracker" to ask for a snack, "dog" to point out the lady who was walking her dog outside and more! He's also much more verbal - "pay" is what he says while he points to something of interest! "Pay" is piano, Thomas the Train, "computer" and much more! We're working with him on that!!!! :)
Words that he is a CHAMP at saying is "ball," "car," "hi," "bye," "uh-oh," "no," "mama," "dada," "mimi," "poppop," "shoe," "go," "moon," and probably more that I just can't think of off the top of my head! The next step in his development is putting words together verbally. He can sign "down, please" but we're working with him on using his words as well!!!
He loves playing outside especially with our neighbor's basketball!!! I'm so glad he's such a little boy!!!
Cars and trains have also become a big interest! Ms. Margie is his babysitter on Thursdays and her son has a large collection of cars. He fell in love with them and for Christmas he got 2 remote control cars, several Thomas the Train sets, a Fisher Price car ramp and several Matchbox cars! It's so much fun to watch him play and make the car and train noises!
We are so blessed to have such a happy, beautiful, and smart little boy!!! He's my little Prince!
