Grayson LOVES books these days! Many times a day we will find him crawling over to his bookshelf by the computer just to look a books. His favorites right now are ones that have touch and feel or life the flap books.
Here he saw me ready to take the picture. Of course as he was looking at his zoo book, he was playing with his tongue which he has been doing a lot of lately since surgery. If you look close you can see his little tongue peeking out.
His favorite book of all right now is his Brown Bear, Brown Bear book that has a little sliding door to show what the animal sees. Just within the last day or two he's finally figured out how to slide the door open himself! It gets a little sticky to close again, but he tries! He also likes his pop up Little Monster books, but also tries to tear the monsters out of it, so mommy keeps those out of reach and we read those together :) There are times now we find him in this corner looking at his books "reading" them to himself. He always makes the same little "humming" sounds as he looks at the books so if we don't see him go back there and we start to hear him we always know he's looking at books. I got a short video of it that I'll post once I get it downloading onto our computer!
It's amazing how many sounds he's started figuring out since surgery! He "talked" a lot before surgery, but always the same sounds and would say the /mmm/ sound a lot. Now he's figuring out the /b/ and /d/ sound and starting to say "dada" at times. He hasn't quite started calling us by name, but we're working on it!
