Things you don’t realise

Friday, September 22nd, 2006

Yesterday Harrison brought a (stolen from its case) CD into the office, opened the CD drawer and put it in. I have no idea how he figured that one out as we barely ever use the CD drawer on the computer. I assume he saw others (such as the DVD player and XBox) and realised they were the same.
Hes VERY clever!!!
Harrison has some new toys - they are magnets. He loves to move them around on the fridge and is fairly aware that they do not stick to much else. They’re really good, they are “wild” animals, as they are wooden and the whole back of them is the magnet. This solves the problem of him getting the magnets off and choking on them!

Harrison also likes to put the CD player on and then dance and sing to it.
Strange baby!

New things

Thursday, September 14th, 2006

for a while Harrison has loved it when we chase him.
Today he chased me as well. So we went up and down the hallway chasing each other. He ended up falling over because he was laughing too much.
He has also learnt to give kisses. As he is a beginner this is more messy and gross than cute! But he does make a cute, little lip smacking noise.
Harrison also has a favourite pink handbag (yes, thats right a pink handbag) that he likes to carry around with him. He puts it over his shoulder and toddles around. There will be photos soon.
Ummmmm ….. I think thats it. We have a plunket visit tomorrow so we can find out how heavy he is (12.5kg at the hospital) and also how tall he is now. Very interesting!

Toddler

Monday, September 4th, 2006

I’m thinking he’s just about made it to toddler status. In the last few days he’s started walking about 50% of the time. I call him the “zombie baby” as he lurches along with floppy arms and crazy eyes.
He had a tummy bug earlier this week and then on Saturday he slipped over in the bath and got a cut on his eyelid, which he was not very happy about!
But everything seems fine now.

We are going to the zoo today and Harrison has a nice new pair of shoes to wear, in case he feels the need to lurch around a little.

Also having the bottle bag “eat” my face is one of the funniest things Harrison has ever seen.
