Blowing out candles

It's so cute how he does it too... real fast breathing with his mouth in a little "o" until he gets lucky and the candle goes out LOL. I want to get that on video.

Tonight, he was so funny. He didn't want to go to sleep, and instead went into giggle fits about everything. I dripped the bottle on his face and he laughed uncontrollably. He bonked his head on the wall, and thought it was so funny, he did it over and over while cracking up. I touched his cheek and he dissolved into laughter. It was something else. He also does this thing when he is really really happy where he puts his arms out in front of him and makes a "pttth" kinda noise while he's laughing. It is hard to describe, but makes me laugh too.

He also said another new word Friday: "Kick". When my mom was trying to take his pants off to change his diaper, he kicked his legs and said "Kick, kick kick!" Then he walked up to her later and kicked her, saying "Kick!" LOL. I wasn't there for that and he hasn't said it for me.

We are working on the throwing behavior. I figured out today that if I really reinforce not throwing by giving him an alternate action, it works most of the time. He was chewing on his toothbrush in the bath, and normally he throws it out of the tub when he is done with it. I kept saying "When you are through, give it to Mommy and I'll put it away." over and over. So when he was through, he handed it to me! Wow, finally. Then at dinner, he always throws his sippy cup, and I kept saying "When you are done, set it down nice right here." and he did. Of course, he threw his puffs and still threw a few things tonight, but it's better. I'm gonna keep working on it.
