Cough Splutter

Zack still has a bit of a cough, seems to be worse in the mornings and the evenings which is not uncommon. We went to Playcentre yesterday anyway, the weather wasn't that great though so we were in doors most of the day. The girls got crazily messy with paints etc I guess its being confined to a smaller area you just notice it more or something. Zack spent most of the day playing with cars and blocks...ooh and eating play dough (errrr). But we had a good day, it sure is nicer when the weather is fine and we can get outside anyway.

Some new words Zack can say on his own accord - turtle, pig, socks, bed, snake, hang on, dinner, monkey, head and down (that's all I can think of at the moment).

When you ask him the noise a cow makes he moos, a duck he quacks (and its a very impressive quack too, not just saying quack but that noise you make in the back of your throat), a snake and he hisses, a tiger and he growls (again this noise is impressive, sounds like a Raaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwl), a chicken and he bwarks. He seems to be a little confused with Cat though and rather than meowing he calls the cat "Puss Puss Puss". Still its very cute!

We have been teaching him his name and providing that he is the mood for thinking (typical man) he will say "Zack" and when I ask him my name he smiles and says "Mum". He has picked this up very quickly, seems he is learning LOTS at the moment.

Zack and I are off to pay some bills this morning and maybe catch up with Mamere for lunch and stop in to see the Bailey's in the afternoon.


Here is a photo of Zack at Nana and Grandad Christini's attempting to ride the dump truck...it can't have been comfortable as it is not actually meant for riding on!

Till tomorrow
