Oreo Cookies!

I used to be able to eat junk food in front of Kyle, but those days are gone. He knows what I have is better than his food. So I had to share my Oreo cookie with him the other night.


Yummy!!!!

We went straight from the high chair to the bath.

I Need My Privacy!

Recently Kyle has started to need some privacy when he is going poop. We started catching him hiding under the table or behind the curtain and then we would smell it when he came back to us and we figured out what he was doing. Sometimes he stands there and sometimes he squats. Now it is getting more obvious, like this morning we were playing and he tooted twice and took off running to hide under the table for a few minutes to finish his business. When he is finished he comes back to doing what he was doing before (making no indication of a needed diaper change). I then say to him "do you need a new diaper?" and he takes off towards the steps to go get a new diaper. I don't think we are near ready for potty training but at least he knows he needs to do this business in private.

I caught him while we on vacation getting some privacy. (I know it is strange that I took a picture and I am talking about him pooping in private, but it is so cute).

How Many Ways!?

Since Kyle has been sitting in his high chair eating finger food we have had a problem with throwing food and sippy cups on the floor. I feel we have tried everything and said "no throwing food" a million different ways. Here are a few that we have tried -
- "NO"
- "No no no"
- "No throwing food"
-"keep your food on your tray"
- stopping him before he throws it
- removing his tray for 1 minute after he throws food and saying "no"
-"please do not throw your food"
-"eat your food"
- making a startling noise when he is about to throw the food
- "all finished"
-moving his hand full of food away from the side of the tray and saying one of the many options listed above
- "NO!!!!!"

And what has Kyle learned from all of this??? Saying "no no no" and then throwing his food on the floor!!!! Trying to be sneaky and throwing food faster and when he thinks we are not looking.

Ug! At least when dinner is over I can call Cole into the kitchen to clean up the mess.
