So our weekend didn't really go as planned. I discovered Friday morning that Tyler had the flu. And just how did I figure this out? Well he presented no fever or anything... but he did puke all over our couch! Lovely! Allen was at work which left me to deal with the mess myself. Yuck! I called daycare to see if any other kids had been out with this, and sure enough, Tyler's little buddy Reid was out on Tues/Weds! I am thankful that Tyler is so smart and can communicate enough to tell me when he is not hungry, that he needs "wa-er" (water) and when he is ready for nap/bed. He didn't eat anything all day, took almost a 3 hour nap and went to bed at 6:30! The next day he woke up and was ready to GO! He ate a little, but still asked for water. By yesterday, it was like nothing happened. So glad my little guy is back to his monkey 'ol self :)
Boy I tell you, when some kids are in learning mode, they are in learning mode. Tyler's vocabulary and communication is just improving ALL the time. He is putting words together and can and will repeat pretty much anything you say (so long as he can say it) Everyday he says "bu-bye" to everything including his room and his blanket. He asks what everything is (that's a little annoying) and is really into his puzzles, books and coloring! What a big boy! He really just wants to know about EVERYTHING and how great for his development! He has even begun wanting to help with "chores". He always wants to do things himself, I let him "help" me with the dishes, carry the laundry basket (he even tried to copy me folding it - SO cute!) and sweeping. I can't believe how fast he is growing. Oh, and he finally started saying his own name!!! He is always surprising me, I can't wait to find out what's in store next :)
