I've always heard people say that babies learn something new everyday, but lately I've learned to believe it! It's remarkable how Matthew comes up with something new every single day!
Some things he's learning....
1) Lesson 1 - The art of Crawling
a) Step 1 ~ Get your bum in the air. He mastered this a few weeks ago and
has now decided that it's the only way to sleep!
b) Step 2 ~ Keep your bum in the air and lift the front end up so you're on
your elbows. This one he is still practising. It's the funniest
to watch. Kind of reminds me of a baby deer learning to stand.
He'll hold his yoga pose for a few seconds and then splat! down go
the arms and legs
c) Step 3 ~ Start to rock back and forth. Matthew finds this most enjoyable
in the crib because there is a little spring in the mattress when
you rock.
d) Step 4 ~ Start to bring one leg into your tummy while you're up on all
fours. Now this one is a hard one! He started to do this
Yesterday but I think it's going to take some work!
No more crawling lessons yet... we'll keep you posted!
2. Lesson 2 - How to take a FUN bath (written by Matthew)
a) Step 1 - kick so hard in your little tub that Mommy thinks you're going to
hurt yourself and then you will get to bath in the big tub
b) Step 2 - Make sure there are lots of Mommy's kitchen bowls and funnels in
the tub because they are the most fun to play with
c) Step 3 - Ask Mommy to make waterfalls so that you can catch the water
d) Step 4 - Make sure your Mommy buys you a toy that makes bubbles underwater
because this is a source of endless fun!
More lessons to come....
