Clapping, Pointing, Waving

Finally, yes! At 17 months old I'm pleased to announce that Rayce is doing all the above. This may not seem like a big deal to some but if you have read some of my previous posts you know this has been a concern of mine for some time. At 9 months old I started to notice that Rayce was a little behind in some areas (mainly fine motor skills) and as time when on I got more and more concerned.

Ray and I have been working non-stop with him and it's nice to finally see results. He has been waving for a few months now. He loves to go bye-bye so whenever he hears "that word" he will wave. I wanted to be able to go to his 18 month check-up with a good report and this is definitely a step in the right direction. I knew he had it in him, I couldn't be more thrilled. :)

First Real Word

I’m pleased to announce that Rayce has officially said his first real word. Ready for it? No laughing! He says hungry! Of course he doesn’t say it just like that, he actually says “ungy”. Love it! He walks around all the time now saying ungy, ungy. I never thought this would be his first real word. I was thinking more along the lines of puppy or dog because he loves both. Oh well what can you do? Hungry it is!

I hope everyone has a great week. Our isn't starting out so good but I will save that for a separate post.

On all fours

I caught him on video crawling on all fours! He wanted me to pick him up and was chasing me lol. If you look real close when he opens his mouth you can see his tooth. It's a long shot but give it a try!

Pulling himself up

Rayce pulled himself up for the first time today!

I'm telling you I can't keep up with this kid.
