Week Forty-Seven

Since Zeeke still hates to take baths, we've started bring him into the shower with us.  There's still some screaming, but it's not quite as bad.

Zeeke now eats whole strawberries, several per meal, and when we run out, we give him sections of orange. We've also started feeding him eating scrambled eggs. Zeeke can pretty reliably indicate whether he wants something by nodding or shaking his head, which is helpful when picking foods, toys, and books.

Zeeke is pretty good at walking as long as he's holding onto something, usually doing laps around the coffee table. With great effort, Karen managed to get Zeeke onto a regular 9:00 and 2:00 napping schedule. The one downside is that his naps coincide with most of their storytime events, but the naps are more important. To make up for the lack of socializing this week, Zeeke & Karen did lunchdates with Leah & Zack and Sharri & Nate.

Sunday, we went to Steve's parents to celebrate Easter. Zeeke hunted for eggs with his cousins and came back with cash for his piggy bank and some fun gifts, including Bert & Ernie dolls from Aunt June, a wind-up monkey from Avery, and a whirling bee toy from his grandparents.  

 

Zeeke's favorite book of the week:  Good Morning, Toucan by Dwell Studio.
