Rutherford is moving along so quickly, it's hard to keep up! First off, he's been eating much better this week. He's back on some purees (still some resistance), plus lots and lots of new finger foods - string cheese, blueberries, homemade sweet potato fries and my veggie bran muffins are his faves. The dogs have never been happier. Sometimes R takes a blueberry or piece of cheese in his hands and leans over in his high chair, hanging the morsel in front of Boo's face. He squeals with glee when Boo licks his hand clean. Everyone has fun.
Speaking of Boo, R has said his first two words! R now says "Dada" when looking at Neddie and he also says "Boo," although he's still getting the hang of that one. It seems to mean either doggie :) So amazing to start to see him communicate more every day.
He's also understanding words, too. He knows what "clap" means, "high-five," "bye bye," and more. He gets so excited when he successfully figures out what you're saying - it must be thrilling to communicate finally!
We have decided to turn the bonus room off the garage into Rutherford's play land. We tried the media room, but the wires, furniture, hardwood floors, etc., made the space not so hot for chasing a baby around. I have some big ideas for the new space - some definite DIY ahead.
We started by moving his toys and such out there last weekend, and he's already having a great time in his new playroom:
