The first is in regards to our Kiddy Gate (this link is the seller on eBay I purchased ours from if you looking for one!) which we use to keep Huddo in the living area. The gate has two parts to securing it shut and the final is pushing down the lever. In regards to Hudson's progress with understanding the sequence of when we go from his room into the living area, if I simply shut the gate but leave the leaver up. I put Huddo on the ground and say "Please shut the gate for Mum Mum" he instantly reaches up and locks it down.
Then there is "Peek-a-Boo" he frequently will look at me now and with a big grin get his hands and cover his eyes and I do the "Where is Huddo? Where is he? I can't see him!" ...Then he takes his hands away and looks at me with such excitement! And of course I do the surprised "Ohhh There you are!!!"
The next is his interest in playing with his blocks and I have been having heaps of fun building block towers with him. (Mum Mum do one block, Huddo do one block)....however something I learnt about Huddo, the colours of the blocks in the tower HAVE to be the same colour! Here is his achievements from 2 nights ago.
There was lots of clapping when he finished this and even sat back and just looked at it in amazement while I went and got my phone to take a pic. He then even tapped my phone wanting to have a look at the pic. The funniest part was 10 minutes later when I said it was pack up time for dinner. He was reluctant and took a few blocks off to put in the container then just giggled and smashed them down. So cute!
Finally, the latest is Huddo's getting up from the ground to stand. No pulling himself up on furniture....or my leg. He now can stand all by himself......he just needs to link the standing with his walking. Currently he just gets into the standing position and is so happy he claps his hands so hard he generally just goes back down to the ground after 10 seconds. ...Won't be long.
All these things though it's amazing how they are so little and simple but as a parent they might as well be winning gold medals at the Olympics. I'm a bit of sook though too, lost count with all these little things this week how many times I get a little tear in my eye and so excited and proud of my Huddo. The little things create big moments!
