Roman had a great visit with Grandma Jan, whom he calls, "Ga-ga." We surprised her for her 70th birthday and they had a great time together; (he especially loves her giant whirlpool tub). They had a blast on the riding lawnmower, it was maybe the best thing ever!
At almost 14 months, he decided to start walking full-time, wants nothing to do with bananas or avocados and instead prefers sweet potato; he is using several ASL signs, incl: milk, more, please, bath, finished, mom, dad, and occasionally, potty. He also went the entire week with only a few wet diapers, and pooped on the floor just once. He also shakes his head no when he knows he's not supposed to do something, like bite or touch an outlet, or when he doesn't want to eat something. It is so much fun to watch him "work." He wants to do everything the big people do; his favorite is pushing buttons to see what happens, on his toys, the tv/stereo, my cuisinart, whatever. He pushes, pulls, tastes, bangs, or whatever else is necessary to figure out what something's purpose is. He laughs when we laugh, loves hide and seek and he pretty much thinks that he is hilarious, which he is. Another favorite is waving bye bye ALL the time, to everyone, including passing cars, strangers at stores. If we're at someone's house or a meeting, he will go over to the door and look back and tell everyone, "bye-bye," as if to say, "Mom, let's get out of here!"
