I am trusting for a few wee moments that our computer will allow me to get out a message to all you faithul Spencer heads on today, April 13,2004 when he turns 11 months.
I cannot believe we've made it this far, and that a but one month away he will be a whole complete 12 months, a full year. On to the single digits I guess. :)
The weather here in Portland is super, we have been able to get out to the park and just out and about in general almost every day this month. He LOVES to swing, and is getting used to slding down the slide with mama, and tromping around in the nice cool grass outside of the play ground.He gets to see many dogs, which he has nothing but good incounters with so far, so he loves them too. On Easter we took a small stroll over to our old apartments and payed our former landlady a visit. Now her daughter has two daughters herself, ( who go gaga over Spencer ) and they in turn had two pet rats! Now I know what you're thinking, hey I know what I was thinking, but in non feral form rats are pretty cute. My point being, Spencer got to meet them and they were very friendly and playful, even ( while being held mind you ) brushed their little whiskers against his ears. Spencer just laughed and tried reaching out for them of course, but it is really something to see him interact with not only children, but animals as well. He has such a keen eye, and such a big heart, he will probably be asking for some sort of pet pretty early on....I would opt for a cat myself, but Chris is allergic. :( Ah well...we will cross that bridge when we come to it, although I believe it won't be that hard to convince mama and daddy to get a pet.
He is still learning to walk, every morning puncutated by "lessons" consisting of me taking a favorite toy and placing it on the oppisite end of the couch where he toddles over very exciteedly, seeming to push it just out of grasp so that he has to work a little harder on those balencing skills.
There have been a few times that he as stood on his own ,hands flaying in
the air and a very cheeky grin on his face,but alas these instances only last but a few seconds..but he seems more than ready to take the plunge.
I intend on practicing boo boo kissing techniques in the months to come.
And being able to wipe away my own tears quickly before anyone sees them, be they from laughter or sadness.
His babbling has become more constructed every day and he is a fan like his mama, of having very detailed conversations with himself.
argghhh..
the computer is starting her freezing ritual, don't worry we hope to have this cleared up in a few days.
more later i promice!
take care all.
