Ryker never ceases to amaze me. His comprehension skills are unbelievable. I can give him a complex command and he understands and responds. Lately in order to get him to eat what I need him to, I'll tell him he can have the food of his choice after he takes a bite of whatever it is he is giving me trouble with. He recognizes he will be rewarded with what he wants after he obeys. Today at lunch it was french fries versus nuggets. Tonight it was puffs versus peanut butter and jelly.
Cole has had quite a few firsts lately. He started crawling last week, well in his own way anyway. He puts his head on the floor and scoots forward. Today he started drinking from a sippy cup. He really impressed me because he instantly picked it up. The first time I put the sippy in his mouth, he started sucking on it. He wasn't too fond of the apple juice but he kept trying. I guess he thought maybe it would be a different flavor next time :) He has also started eating puffs. He's working on putting them in his mouth and I think a few do go in on accident but he'll have it soon I'm sure! He is also finally becoming a little more interested in sitting independently. We were able to take some pictures of him similar to what I had made of Ryker. We couldn't do them until he started sitting so it seemed like a long time coming.
I took the kids to see Cars 2 today. Ryker liked the Pixar short film of Toy Story better than the movie. I can't say I blame him. The movie was just ok. He actually got upset when the Toy Story short ended. Then he fell asleep during Cars. Oh well. He was really into Rio when I took them to that but I wasn't able to stay the whole time. My lap wasn't big enough :) Cole watched most of Cars and was very good.
