Geddy had so much fun this past long weekend. He was ecstatic to have both mom and dad with him for five whole days. (Scott was home Wednesday with a bad cold). Geddy spent lots of time climbing on everything, reading books, and chattering. He has started talking some silly talk that doesn't make any sense. It sounds like lots of yabba-dabba-doos mixed with his regular words like mama, dada, up, pop, hat, no-no, ball and Elmo. It is very funny and the more he sees us laugh at it, the more he does it.
He is developing a fondness for sticking out his tongue when I am trying to take his picture. They still turn out cute though. I am always glad to get a picture where he is at least looking at the camera. I get lots of pictures of his back or the top of his head, or even the empty couch because he doesn't hold still long enough for the camera to take the picture.
One day during the holiday break, Geddy helped me clean and rearrange my cupboards so there were some he could play in. All my plastic containers got moved to a Geddy accessible place. He had a blast scooting them all over the kitchen floor. I also put locks on all my other cupboards. So now mama doesn't need to spend so much time saying no-no when we are in the kitchen.
Sunday night Geddy was quite proud of himself because he put all these beads together and then made a necklace out of them. I tried getting him to look at me, but he was having too much fun putting it on and off of his neck. He has frequently put a couple of these beads together, but some of them are harder than others, so he usually gives up in frustration. Yesterday was the first time he did so many and made the ring. He also decided to try doing somersaults. He did one perfect one and a couple of ones that ended up going sideways. Who knows why he decided to try that one, it's certainly never been one of his mother's favorite moves!
