Cheeky Monkey

Joshua continues to be a cheeky monkey lately. He is still doing the fake cough every time someone around him coughs or even clears there throat. In fact this morning he was asleep on our bed and I was in the hall way. I had a cough and Joshua woke-up, did his fake cough to take the mickey out of me, then went back to sleep!!!

He is also getting a little monkey with his mobility. If there is a door or drawer that can be opened, then he will open it. If there are buttons that can be pressed, he will press them. Basically you need to watch him 24-7 at the moment. Twice we have unknowingly forgotten to close the bottom stair gate and found the little dude half way up the stairs!!!

On the subject of mobility - Joshua is now walking with the lightest of support in just one hand (see pictures below). Surely it is only a matter of time now before the old chimpanzee type walk with the hands in the air starts.



Joshua has also now learnt where the house alarm is turned off. When we come into the house he opens up the key-code unit for you, lets you type in the number and then closes it up. Clever little boy eh.

Don't forget Joshua's 1st birthday in just over a month. If you are stuck for ideas then his birthday list can be found at http://www.whatidlove.co.uk/, just search for list NR 16158. Just to clear up some confusion you do not have to purchase directly from the website. You can buy any of these items in the shop and then still log onto the website to mark off the item as bought so that no one else gets it.

Finally, where are all the votes for J2's weight. 13 people voted on J2 being a little girl - but only 4 people have an opinion on the new babies weight.
