I’m pretty proud of Damien so far today because he was very good at following directions. For those who don’t know, Damien loves to run off. So Damien must hold our hands, be carried, or be in a cart/stroller if we’re in public. Damien has also decided that he LOVES television. The only problem with that is he doesn’t get to use up all his energy. So I had to turn off the TV this morning and take him on a walk, only this time I brought down his toy lawn mower to push. The mower is actually one of the things Grandma bought for him when she was visiting. Anyways, it worked out great. By him pushing his mower around, it kept him from gaining enough speed to get too far away and he also listened to me when I pointed to which direction he should go. We went on a nice walk up to the park and back and he walked nicely along side me. The short video is him just walking behind our apartments.
The first pic below isn’t from today, but Damien’s wearing the cute shirt Grandma bought for him when we were in Venice, Italy.
After the walk…I think he’s finally tired 🙂 |
