It's been a while since our last post...so I'm going to try and recap everything in a condensed version.
Carter's vocabulary is expanding like crazy, he is saying more words every day. He's also starting to recognize letters and numbers! He definitely knows the letters A, H, I, M, and O. He also knows the number 8. When he looks at books lately it's not just the pictures he points out, it's now the letters of the words too!
His acrobatics continue. Dave got out an old pull up bar and put it in a door frame, Carter loves to swing and hang from it. We also started swimming class, which he likes a lot. His favorite part is when we line up on the side of the pool and jump in the water. He doesn't seem to have any fear to jump into my arms. He also likes to play with the floaty toys and balls in the water.
We took him to Meijer Gardens for the annual butterfly exhibit. He liked looking at the butterflies this year but mainly wanted to get down and just run around. Thankfully we went on a "kids night" so running around was allowed and prevalent.
Finally, he is recognizing and loving hockey when it comes on the TV. He immediately says "Oh, wow" when he sees it. This, of course, pleases Dave to no end. Dave even bought Carter his first Red Wings jersey, which he didn't necessarily love at first (I think because it was so big, it was like a dress on him), but he came around. The two of them sit and watch hockey together like two peas in a pod.
