Somehow Toby turning 14 months old just crept up and went past without me realising. So the little boy is now 14 months old, and with the exception of when he was sick with a cold last week, he is starting to sleep better at night. That is, he wakes fewer times. I think he only woke twice last night in the 12 hours he was in bed, though it may have been 3 times. Either way, it is a lot less than was the norm until now.
Toby does a lot of talking in his own language. He chatters away to himself, and us, and will tell Nathan off, but very few of the words are recognisable to me. He also sings in the car!
One of the main things I have noticed this last month is that Toby will do big, deliberate nods of the head in response to questions we ask him. As an example, “Toby, do you want some cantaloupe?” Big slow head nod. He can also now sit on the potty on his own, and has taken himself to the potty to use it several times now. He is also dry at night most of the time now.
Toby is now able to climb up onto the beds without help, which is where he and Nathan love to play. He also can walk quite a distance, though it is slow going because he gets sidetracked soooo easily. He walked home from the train station a few weeks ago. It took us at least half an hour, instead of the normal ten minutes, but he walked the entire way.
The boy also doesn’t like wearing hats.
Toby is such a cutie!!!!
