Madden is doing so many new things lately, I feel like it is not just weekly, but every other day it's something new. He is now soooo close to crawling, he has taken about two crawl scoots forward. He can of course go backwards and roll from one end of the room to the other. He just started trying to pull himself up onto things, which he can get from sitting position to his knees by doing this. He can do his two crawl steps forward as I mentioned and now he can go from laying on his belly to up on his knees and then sitting. He has just started doing all this in the past week basically. Ever since we came back from visiting my good friend Danielle and her baby in GA a week ago, he has now been on the go basically. He was already rolling and managing to scoot all over but seeing another baby who is crawling and cruising on things has really pushed him to do more I believe. I'm all about him crawling asap because the faster they crawl, the faster it's over and they are onto walking. Crawling to me is the hard stage because whenever you go somewhere, they want to get down and you can't always put them down if you are out on the dirty floor so walking is easier in that aspect anyway.
He can now say the syllabols Ga, Ba, Pa, Ya and Ma. He likes to blabber alot and just started saying Ma the other day so I'm pretty sure Ma Ma is going to fly out of his mouth any day now. I don't know if it counts if he said Ma for mama but he's going the right direction anways. Brian always says it doesn't because they don't know what they are saying but I disagree, they are repeating everything they are hearing so it's the first step in language.
While he is still on baby food, he has moved onto consuming other types of food: chicken, beef hot dogs, beef stew, any veggies or fruit cut up and the occassional noodle. He has entered the getting mad stage when he sees you are eating food and won't give him any so we either have to eat out of his site or give him what we are having to prevent a melt down. He is just like his Daddy in that aspect, he gets mad when he doesn't eat!
He continues to be the happiest, most laid back baby ever unless he is teething which he can be miserable for a few days when he has teeth coming in. So far he has his bottom two teeth and now the top two just popped through and are still coming in. For the most part, he is really easy going and will entertain himself with toys and scooting all over the floor. He loves to laugh at his sisters and the dogs and just thinks they are the best thing ever. The girls of course dote on him all the time so they are still not sick of him yet!
