Devin -- March 2015

Devin has been getting more and more interactive, often talking and making tons of noises anytime anyone is around. Devin has been having a bit of seperation axiety when he goes to Bible Study Fellowship and nursery. He is able to calm down, but it just breaks my heart when he is crying and shaking when I give him over to his wonderful teachers. I know that he is safe, but he does not know it and he is VERY attached to his mommy. I love how much he loves being with me, but there are times that it can be so heartbreaking. This month we went to visit the Frederick Meijer Gardens and he had a great time looking at the butterflies, but he really loved the more hands on things, like the Japanese garden and just getting to touch the plants. We are slowly getting rid of nursing and now we are just on and off which makes me realize just how much of a boy and not a baby he has become. Here is a few more memorable highlights.

  • Loves to grab "down there" anytime there is no diaper and that often means with there is messy things too!
  • Has started to push the Dino toy around, but does not fully know how to turn it around. 
  • Had fun sucking on his arm and making farting noises...so it starts
  • HATES elevators, not matter if I am holding him or if he is in a stroller, screams every time
  • Devin has started to snuggle with a blanket during his nap times lately
  • After a few fussy days, I took him to the doctor to find out he has a cold, ear infection and molars coming in. Poor kiddo must have been feeling awful!
  • We had an eye appointment to take the tube out of his eye and he barely noticed
  • Whenever the television is on he never pay attention until ELMO comes on then he just light up
  • Has so much fun putting magnetic flowers on trees at the Gardens, it was so cute to watch over and over 
  • He has started putting his coins into his piggy bank and even putting the circle shapes into his puzzles.
  • Has been taking a few steps at a time but only when he wants to
  • Loves to play with his little basketball hoop in the tub during bath time
  • Had a great time eating dinner at Project Neighborhood with Calvin Students. He did not want to be put down until dinner time and then he just threw food everywhere!
  • Loves to hold the Wii nun-chuck when brother and Daddy are playing. He seems to think he is playing too.  
  • Loves to take lids on and off of containers
  • When Kyler and I were washing Duncan Devin came to join us and wanted to help too by reaching in the water and later I gave him a cup so that he could pretend to dump water
  • Devin always seems to put his food in his hair and often has some fun post eating hairstyles
  • Had a great weekend with Grammy and Papa visiting and enjoying eating at Rainbow Grill
  • Even though he is not fulling walking, he likes to walk around on his knees!
  • When I was putting laundry away, I turned to find that he had taken every tissue out of a box
  • Had his last day of Coffee Break at church where he often snuggled with his special person Onetta, and she could not wait for "her boy." Makes me smile!
  • At Grandpa and Grandma's house had fun going up and down the one step.
  • When having snack at the table, thought it was funny to put his feet up and started to giggle. 
  • Played outside in the sand box and enjoyed eating it...yucky kiddo!
  • Loves to close doors, but gets upset if they are fully closed.
