Mummy as well as I cuddling. one of Alexander’s most current skillz!

Featured Post.

I found myself scribbling away after dinner on a dog-eared bit of paper (simultaneously trying to enjoy XFactor on catch Up), all the things Alexander can now do, aged 1.

Then I remembered that’s why I have a blog as well as XFactor can wait.

So show ’em what you’ve got son!

1. He has quite the repetoire of words already from ‘share’ to ‘water’, ‘Daddy’ as well as a lot more (not the actual word ‘more’ however I don’t want to bore you. think we counted about 8 words at last official counting of words onto one more bit of dog-eared paper.

He does mostly rely on  ‘Mummy’ as well as ‘Daddy’ for everything as well as everyone as well as loves to point stating ‘this’, mostly at ‘Biye’ (Billy) the feline (despite sort of being able to say his name…see I’m boring you now).

2. He can run a bath. Really. I think I need to film this for Youtube. Alexander loves to turn the chilly bath tap as well as then ideas his bath toys in leaning over the bath. He likewise likes to try as well as drink from said bath tap. He seems to like it to water from a sippy cup. I mean it’s the equivalent of a freshwater waterfall for him. odd child.

3. He made his first 2 steps solo on Saturday as well as loves nothing a lot more than to navigate around the house pushing his walker around, turning corners like Lewis Hamilton (and probably every other 1 year old once did).

4. He fights back. When his older, often envious sibling Oliver gets frustrated as well as wallops him one, Alexander hits back. Oliver doesn’t seem to realise he’s basically toughening the kid up like some sort of infant boxing Raging Bull style training…he much better enjoy out when he gets older! I’m worn out just thinking about the fights I might have to seperate in the future. Boarding school anyone?

5. like a lot of kids, Alexander loves nature as well as being outside in the open air. We’re lucky that where we currently live overlooks fields of cows as well as a reservoir so he stands by the kitchen door mesmerised by the animals as well as the pheasant who often likes to drop by to eat the scattered bread we leave him when forget to eat the Warbutons!

6. He loves to dance. The kid has rhythm as well as I’m taking credit history for that one (being head bootyshaker of the house of course) as well as I love nothing a lot more than to see him shaking his little shoulders as well as clapping away to everything from the Thomas theme tune to erm JayZ.

7. Kissing. Well Alexander-style kissing, where he basically techniques me as well as opens his mouth on my cheek. It is the best kiss I’ve ever had. He really is one affectionate little dude as well as loves to hug everyone. Wow do I love that child.

8. As from yesterday, he can kick a sphere as well as was even dribbling (no, not the teething kind of dribbling, actual football skillz people) so I”m already planning his premiership career as well as putting a collection of Chanel handbags on hold in Selfridges. bit premature you think?

9. Radiators, electrical sockets, anything remotely dangerous, he’s on it. The house is really pretty warm normally as well as I love the fact you can control the heating temperature from your iphone with heatmiser so I’m going to be sorting that asap.

10. He can draw, well he can squiggle as well as verified it with a red crayon over an elephant picture in Nandos the other day. I was so into my poultry I nearly missed it. We now might frame it as well as hide it in one of the toilets.

…I think he can do a lot more than 10 new tricks however even I’m bored now!
