Theo kind of dances. When I put the radio on he smiles and shakes his head side to side – as if he is saying no, no, no when he really means yes, yes, yes! It’s pretty cute. He also bounces up and down standing on your legs in a cool, new dance move.
He is definitely much more opinionated these days. Mostly, he does NOT want to have his diaper changed. He’d rather sit up and look around and grab anything in sight. Sometimes he shrieks louder than I’ve ever heard anyone shriek. It hurts my ears. Usually if I give him something to occupy him quickly, he’ll manage to get through the quick change. He is often unhappy about being put in his highchair. Once he’s in there, and snacks are given to him, he’s fine.
Theo also is learning how to kiss and that is just the best. Sometimes, when I’m lucky, I will lean into him and say, “give Mama a kiss!” and he will lean into me and give a sweet, un-puckered kiss with a smile.
