Loaded Evening

Last night we went to Gigi’s house and had dinner all together. Jeanette and Gramita cooked a great meal. We all ate until we were stuffed and then played a fun game called Loaded Questions. It was a very fun evening. Monks walked everywhere!! He was walking through the kitchen, around the table, he was non-stop! I would classify him as a walker now. It is the most adorable thing to see. He still keeps his hands up but I love it! He did fall once and hit his mouth on the wood floor but only cried for a little while. Only downfall to them walking—falling! I know its part of them learning and kids will get hurt but man it’s so scary and too sad when it happens, especially to your own. He was just randomly walking around and then saw some cake on the table so stopped and leaned on the bench and pointed for some. He had a little piece and drank a small glass of milk with it. He was so sweet eating.

When we left Gigi’s, it was so nice out so we drove home with the windows down and sang some good music. Monks loves music and bobs his head to the beat. He also started doing this crazy thing with his hands. When we had left the pumpkin patch Saturday Tio was telling him to do a fist pump like on Jersey Shore and he was trying to. It did not look just like Tio’s but was close. He waves his hand in front of his face or on the side of his head to the beat. Ever since then, when music is on, he incorporates his hands too and just chills in his car seat. I love to look back and see him just chillin like a little villain.

He did stay up forty minutes past his bedtime but he was able to sleep late today since daddy was off again with him.
