He wanted to sit for his picture today. And drag his quilt around. I finally got him to lay down, but he was crying. I took pictures and then comforted him.
Joshua's newest favorite word is "can't". He uses this when he actually can't do something or when he just doesn't want to try. I still make him try, and often he can do it.
He is still a rather picky eater, but crunchy beans are still a favorite so I at least get some sort of vegetable in him. Sometimes he'll eat his fruit, sometimes not. Same thing with the meat. He often won't even try the food on his plate. He gets very upset if he thinks it is time to eat and the food isn't immediately ready.
Sleeping - we took the side off his crib and haven't had any trouble with him getting out of bed by himself. He sleeps from about 8pm to 7am with a nap in the middle of the day. However, he still wakes me up several times during the night because his blankets fell off. We tried something new last night, because two nights ago was terrible, and it worked a bit better. However, he had only had two slices of strawberry for dinner so he woke me up to remind me that he wanted to finish his donut for breakfast and that his blankets weren't quite right.
Joshua loves to run around, especially if he is being chased or running with Isaac. Really, he enjoys doing anything with Isaac. There are still frequently bears in/near the house, and this last month there were some ghosts too. He likes to play with Duplos and SnapCircuits and likes to color. He usually enjoys reading. He is starting to enjoy doing stuff in the kitchen with me and can almost be trusted not to make a huge mess. He also likes hiding with Ben and that is currently his go to game after dinner. They hide in the corner of the couch and...something. I'm not really sure what goes on.
Joshua is quite resilient and if something got hurt during playing usually just needs a quick hug and then any tears change to tears of annoyance because he wants to go play again. He knows the phrase I seem to say the most: "rub it out" and has told me to do the same thing a few times.
