Terrorising The House

My most frequently used sentence this week would have to be "Noah you are a terror". Noah is more and more active and easily bored. He can get from the lounge room to the dog food in 3 seconds and he loves playing in the dog water after he's tipped it all over the floor. He has also taken to biting me at the beginning of a feed if I don't give him attention. He likes eating shoes and shoe laces. He pulls himself up onto EVERYTHING. He likes sticking his fingers down the bathroom drain. He likes the garbage bin and the vacuum cleaner. He grabs the bottom of my skirts and tugs on them when he wants something which gives new meaning to the saying 'hanging off my apron strings'. And... he throws tantrums. Fair dinkum tantrums when things are taken away from him or a toy isn't 'working' or when he has been put down.
Hahahaha - just now, as I am writing this, I've learnt that the magnet are no longer safe on the fridge.

His crawl is quite funny to watch, he uses his left knee like a traditional crawl but puts his right foot down and pushes with it. I feel as if this is his way of coming as close as possible to walking because that's exactly what he would love to be able to do!

Having said all of this, he is an absolute champion to be with. He's happy and contented and he never fails to make me smile several times a day. I am amazed by how quickly he is developing. Only today Andrew said how he looks like a little boy and I am fully aware of the fact that our little baby is not long off being called a toddler.
