Uh, so... it has been a while. We've gotten really busy with William's recovery, work, Jerry traveling all over Florida for boat shows and more work! Now we're in the process of relocating... phew. As for William's recovery, he has recovered perfectly. We just had the three month check-up and you would never even know he had surgery. There isn't even a scar. It is amazing what modern medicine can do! A huge thank you to Dr. Flack and his team.
As for other news, William is now a professional walker. He also has a big case of, what I call, the "whiny ones". Others call it separation anxiety. I think it is a lot more than separation anxiety, I think it is communication anxiety. He knows what he wants but can't necessarily say or do it... which leads to frustration. I was not warned about this stage. I thought I was going to have a pleasant smiley boy until about 18 months when the word "no" is learned, understood, and uttered at will. It's not that bad, Jerry and I have actually taken some amusement from it. It is our goal to not give in to crying or make a big deal out of it. We hope this will eliminate future tantrums. *fingers crossed*
For all of my friends who think William is the cutest thing ever, he is. But here's a small glimpse of what can happen if I put him down and he doesn't want "down". There are absolutely no tears, so don't feel too bad for him. Also notice how fast the crying stops when he hears his daddy... the little booger!
Is it wrong that I think this is the funniest video I have!? I'll be playing this video at his graduation party in 2017. =)
