A few words about words

Hope this doesn't portend future tendencies to drop things- Nolan's first word (in the sense of using it repeatedly and with meaning and intent) is "Uh Oh"!
He says it when something slips from his wee grabby paws by accident, when he slowly and deliberately drops items from his highchair (good fun to watch the parents pick things up), and even when I pick things up and hand them back to him and he is PREPARING to drop them. Handy phrase. He says all sorts of other complex things but I think he hasn't put together any meanings or names yet. He has said Dada and Mama for quite a long time but it's random, alas.

Tonight in the tub he was pulling his slippery little body up to stand in the tub, holding on to the spout-strong! Also interested in switching the water to shower while it is running- this didn't turn out so well though. He was also getting TOTALLY ENRAGED when toys floated away from him in the tub. Now that he is the Master of All He Surveys, and the Great Explorer Baby, having things get away from him is just TOO MUCH. Especially his BELOVED, precious (my preshusssssssss...) baby wash bottle- he clutches it and sucks on the spout (yuk). Other new things- when he is mad he throws his body backwards, straight and rigid as a board.... not a great idea in the tub either. Terrible twos being forshadowed a bit here.

Got to go- I hear wee critter stirring. He hates waking up alone.
