Bye, Bye Bottle! (A VJ update)

VJ has given up his bedtime bottle. He hasn't really been taking much of it for a couple of weeks now, but I so love to hold him and feed him that way. I've procrastenated, but it's time! Last night I threw away all the bottles, nipples, covers, etc., except one that I placed way up high out of reach, "just in case". He won't be needing it though...he's moved on. He loves drinking out of the sippie cups with soft straws in them.

We stopped physical therapy in November, and honestly, to see him now, you'd never know he needed therapy. He is doing so good! He is walking, dancing, and sometimes running.

Recently we also started teaching VJ a little sign language. We bought the first two "Signing Times" baby videos. He doesn't really watch the videos (although they are cutesy). We watch them and start signing to him. He can "sign" milk, and tired/sleepy, and more(as in more food). Sometimes he is so cute. After preschool on Thursday we took Noah to karate. VJ was in the back of the van and kept doing the sign for "sleepy". Poor thing! He finally got his nap after Noah's class.
