Progress

Today Max One Sock said Ma as I walked in the door and he saw me! I wonder if all that mamamamama-training is starting to pay off:-)?
Eeeh is still his favorite sound, but we are hearing a few more! His high pitch sounds are getting louder and I think he has figured out that Dancing Soul Liam reacts to it!

Hahaha... still has his funny laughter!

He is a bit afraid to lay down from sitting up, but we're practicing it a lot! He is reaching for things that are out of his reach and seems generally more interested in everything around him! He also uses his feet to get a grip to move towards he wants to go and is very interested in what is UNDER/BEHIND things:-)!
BUT... he has started to whine if I leave his sight for even a second; not even if I talk to him while getting something is he happy... I need to be in sight ALL the time! Wonderful development... but oh, how tiring to hear to whining! Yesterday, when Robert walked in the door, I went outside! Rain was pouring down, but I went out and did garden work for a couple of hours! It was so good to rest my ears!
I rarely do things like that! Robert said he felt it like I was human, for once... finally had to have a break, even from the children! (I didn't really have to, but I felt like it and did it... big progress for me:-))!

Max has also started to wake up a lot in the evenings... last night he was up between 8.30 pm and 11.30 pm, just that time when I prepare for the next day! It's been a couple of late nights!
Tonight I made him stay in bed and just rocked the crib instead... it has worked so far! It is now midnight... we'll see!
But I love all this progress! Even the waking up and whining! It is so normal!

Dancing Soul Liam is fine! He and Victor went on a race with Liam's walker in the forest today! He was so excited!
We were supposed to go to the city park on Sunday, had a picknick packed and were ready to go when Liam had a seizure. He was ok, but fell asleep and slept for two hours. We decided to have the picnic at home instead!


When Liam woke up and felt better we went to the playground at one of the schools here in Taberg! Liam had the walker and was racing!
A little boy, about 7 years old, was so curious! And after a while he started playing with Liam! He would stand at the pedestrian crossing (the playground is like a race track, with gas station, parking spaces, pedestrian crossings, road signs etc.) and just as Liam would come, he would start to cross, making Liam wait... later he took his bike and raced with Liam! My eyes teared up! Liam made a friend without ANY help from me or the assistant!!!!

I had brought toys for Max to play in the sand but he was happy on the swing and almost fell asleep!


We have had a good few days! Missing you terribly, of course, but are looking forward to see you again soooooon!
Finally, a picture from the bedroom window, Sunday morning, as I pulled the curtains up:-)!
