As many of you have noticed a lot of my blog is about Tristan. I mean, he is my whole entire day pretty much :). He is turning into such a little boy. I still call him my little baby, but I know that he's not. He's learned how to do stairs, both up and down and use the railing if need be. He LOVES being outside and 'exploring' the apartment complex. Mostly chasing geese :) He has just started doing this cute little samba dance step while he turns himself in circles, while of course laughing and clapping for himself. He is at the point now where he wants to eat everything we are eating, even if he's just eaten a full meal. Turns out the boy likes cucumber sandwiches... who knew? Today he was eating one of the cucumbers and about an hour later he smiled at me and the skin of the cucumber was lining his teeth like braces.. silly boy! :) Love him to pieces though.
We are also at an experimental point. He now spanks us back when we do something that he finds 'displeasing.' I'm glad that he has the correlation between the two, but unhappy that he is hitting. So this week we are trying a different method of discipline. Will let you know how that goes. Already today he has hit less often, but it has taken some serious persistance to have him not do things that could potentially harm him. Any suggestion out there on what to do?
I am feeling much better. Been praying hard for strength and to know that I need all the help I can get! haha. Today was beautiful weather so we got to play a bit outside, which I know he really liked. Until next time!
