Niko and I were goofing around and wrestling on the couch last night and he kept kind of gnawing and drooling on my neck and chest. I wasn't sure what he was up to, but he wasn't biting so I let he keep doing it, and all of the sudden he started giving me raspberries! He just kept giving me raspberries and laughing hysterically, and I just couldn't stop lauging. It was hilarious. That is definately a skill he has learned from his dad and his grandma. They were the wettest, stickiest raspberries I've ever gotten!
Niko is also going through a biting stage - fortunately saving most of the bites for me, and a few for Colin. I don't think he has bitten anyone else. Anyhow, I checked out his mouth on Sunday, and discovered 4 new teeth. Wow! No wonder he was biting. I'm hoping that will subside as the teeth finish coming in. They have all broken through, and though I'm no dentist, I'm pretty sure they are molars.
Niko's new favorite word is "more!" At first he used it in conjunction with the sign language for "more" - usually when he wanted more milk. But now he uses it all the time - pointing at the things he wants and saying "more." He also requests more milk continuously, even if his cup is half full. It is just kind of his mantra - "more, more, more." I can't wait until he puts his two favorites together to request "more ball." We'll never hear the end of that one!
Niko is also in the business of getting more cousins! My cousins Elaine and Nadia are both expecting babies in late winter/early spring. I saw them over the weekend and they both look fabulous. Also, my cousin Sean has gotten married and now is proud papa to 2-year old Brook. Congrats and welcome to the family, everyone!
