Watching the Wild Boy Grow

a fairly up to date description of our favorite lil man

Saturday, June 26, 2004

Hey there.
a lot of things have happened this week so I'll try to bring you up to date.
The trip to the beach was fun, if you look at Spencer's album you will see that his favorite actitivity seemed to be eating sand.
It would be nice to be so easily pleased.
It was really nice to get away from the city, feel the fresh air, and be humbled by the massive size of the ocean.
Spencer also enjoyed the seagulls, which he was certain were his beloved duckies, and had no problem chasing down.With him and our picnic lunches we were quite popular as I am sure you can guess.
Spencer also learned how to clap this week! He had been occasionally meeting the two hands together, but this week he made full contact, and loves to clap in admiration to all of his favorite things. It's really something to see that look of wonder and pride on his little face when he realizes that he has learned something new, something that mama and daddy can do.It's now when I wish that I had a video recorder!
Also learned was the heart stopping ( mama's heart that is ) actitvity of climbing. He had always tried to climb in the bath tub, but this week he made it on top of his toy box, rearranged the ball sitting on top of the coffee table he was next to, and leaned foward a bit to make sure that all his movin and groovin was not in vain.
Like I said, a heart attack for Mama, but I am proud of him. When he is not in his highchair, stroller, or playpin (i.e. prisons)
he is cruising
around to all pieces of furniture, the boy NEVER stops.
And just like with the seagulls at the beach, he approaches all animals with a naive interest that is both exciting and funny.
We keep abn eye out on him and all meeting so far have been friendly ones.
okay senor spencer needs a little snack as does mama.
more later i'm sure, for the possibiltiy of something getting left out is high.
ciao for now
mamaJ
