Lucian is getting closer to walking. He has been walking (assisted) for a few months. Well, now he walks while holding only one hand. He will occasionally let go of both of our hands to find his balance. His record for standing by himself is approximately 11 seconds. Not bad for a little guy like him. By little I really mean half of my own size. Yes, he is getting quite big. He's getting smart too. He knows how to try new things to get what he wants. Like throwing a fit? oh yes. Those toddler years are looking a little scary right about now. We will tackle that when the time comes.
So you can't help but question what this mysterious mushroom is? It's his small backyard pool of course. What the heck were you thinking? I know he likes to pick plants and eat them, but give the kid a little bit of credit. He has an inflatable pool shaped like a mushroom. It's pretty neat and offers a decent amount of shade. It gives him a place to cool off in the hot blazing sun rays. It also gives Daddy a place to play with him when he is covered in food! Better than a bath :)
He has a wide palate of foods at the point. Not too shabby. He even has some of those pesky little white things that protrude from the gumline. what are those called? Oh yeah, Teeth! He has two on the bottom jaw. Several more are making their way out. I'm still waiting on that Chershire Cat smile. Soon enough, but not too soon I hope. He is growing up so fast. I love it.
