Well, last week wasn't too bad. Donovan was very good for his mommy up until the last two days. He started to get pretty whiny and needy late Sunday afternoon and it continued on through the next day until Brad got home. I'm not sure what was wrong with him, but he is back to his normal cute self.
I-Dub took 2nd place at the national tournament again this year. It was a disappointment, they were the best team there, sometimes you just get unlucky.
I have been a little more aggressive with Donovan and his toys recently. He hasn't really shown much interest in them, he mostly just likes people, but he has been getting better. He is starting to reach for things that are in front of his face. He likes hands the most, but he is figuring other things out as well. It is a lot of fun seeing his progress. He changes from day to day and gets more and more interested in the world around him. We have a hard time getting good pictures of him because as soon as we pull out the camera all he does is stare at it. Today he was jabbering at us for about five minutes, but once we pulled out the video camera he shut right up. It is a little frustrating, but at least we get to see it. He makes the funniest faces when he talks to us. He jabbers on as if we can understand each other, it is so much fun. My mom says I started talking in sentences, and I am guessing he will do the same. He loves to stand up. He gets mad when we lie him down or try to make him sit. He is just like his dad so far. He even kicked a real soccer ball for the first time last night (sorry, no pictures). We love the little guy and can't wait to take him out to Utah to meet everyone!
