Bounce

We made a fort out of the sofa cushions and Mike his inside but Matthew was more interested in bouncing on the sofa bed. After much effort we got out for a visit to Thomas at Scotsdales and a nice lunch. And we bought glass beads and played with them in the garden in the afternoon - lots of chasing mummy in the garden and daddy robot in the house too. All in all not a bad day for a family who are all a bit too tired. Getting up before 6 does not suit any of us - must get the blackout blinds sorted.

We're amused by two speech developments which seemed to have arrived at the same time 'now' whenever we suggest something he might like to do later and 'minute' (occasionally 'in a minute') as a delaying tactic any time we try get him to stop one thing or do something he doesn't want to. Definitely stringing 5 word sentences together sometimes now too.
