before leaving NOLA i could not get Julian to understand the concept of "dipping'. However most times when i was tring to teach him how it works he would either refuse or plain ignore me. On one occasion, he had a hambuger and fries, he was refusing to dip his fries in the ketsup on the plate but would touch his fry to the ketsup on the burger before biting his fry. What a stinker huh? Here is a picture i caught of him when i finally did get him to dip his french fry! Bout time Julian!!!
Also while in LA, Julian got his first battery operated car. He loveddddd it. We cant wait to get it here so he can play with it.
The trip to VA was very long... seemed like a life time. My mom and Aunt drove me half way, Conyers, GA just on the East side of ATL. My best friend from VA met me there to drive the rest of the way with me. Thank god for portible dvd players and Barney!... hahaha. Nah i kid, Julian did great on the trip, i was very very surprised, and proud of him.
Here are some pictures of my little man's breath taking smile :)
Julian is talking so much more. He is starting to put sentences together, and request what he wants. He also obey's commands such as,
" go up to your room for night night"
"go get mommy your cupcup"
"put your clothes in the hamper"
"show mommy your eyes"
"show mommy your nose"
Today, first thing in the morning.. Julian noticed a banana on the counter. .. this is how it panned out..
" momma, nana" - with hand reached in the air.
- so i broke him off a peice and handed it to him.
holding it in hand....he says," more"
i told him " no, you still have some in your hand"
"nah uhhh..."- then he shoved the rest of what he had in his hand in his mouth.
then reached up again requesting," moree"
i was so surprised... he actually held a conversation with me. He is growing so fast, it makes my head spin.
we love our new home, and i promise to update with pictures soon! i also will do my best to keep up with my blog for a change. :)
enjoy
