FEED ME

This week Joshua has started to use arm bands in the swimming pool for the first time. He didn't seem to mind them at all and it gives him a bit more freedom to move around rather than clinging to Daddy or being stuck in his floatie.

Joshua's walking is also improving in leaps and bounds and he is now virtually running. The problem we have now is getting him to slow down so that he doesn't trip over. He can even manage to reach down from a standing position to pick something up and then stand back upright again unassisted. Tonight in Tesco's the little guy was even pushing the trolley around a bit!!!

As Joshua becomes more and more independent every day, it was only a matter of time before he started to feed himself. So this week we gave him the spoon and bowl and just let him get on with it. Its very messy, but he has got the right idea and as you can see from the pictures he does manage to get some of his yoghurt in his mouth.
