One step forward.. two steps back!

Just when I thought all was going well with feeding, JB is up to his old tricks with gagging and throwing up. I am just trying to ignore it hoping it is just a minor setback, but it is hard watching him.

On the other hand, he is developing so much. From scaring the crap out of me by creaping up on me, dancing to music on the tv, he is signing food and more (we are working on milk) but I am not sure he really puts 2 and 2 together yet. Although I should not under estimate him, for the last two months I have noticed he understands everything I say, from go get your green ball, go park it (meaning put his walker away) to making animal sounds/actions. He has his own sounds for dogs, monkeys, opens and closes his mouth for fish and is just starting to do an elephant action.

I am at a bit of a loss at the moment when it comes to his toys, he has a wide range of toys which I have tried to ensure give him a good variety of things to do. Most are kept in his toy box and I alternate them every two weeks but he just seems bored with them. He has some plastic half-circles which stack as a tower or connect together to form a ball, he used to love these, now he has mastered taking them apart and putting them together in order he is bored. I read to him a lot, but he is at the stage where his attention lapses after 5 mins. I am going to go shopping this week and try to get some more stimulating toys.
