All Dean does these days is walk around with his walker and his train. As soon as I try to get him to walk on his own he cries. I guess he likes the security of holding onto something. He's basically running at this point with his walker so I figured he'd be able to walk on his own. He has still only taken about 3 steps at a time on his own. He even walks backwards now with his toys. Lately he's been testing my authority. Right before he does something bad he looks me straight in the eye to see what my reaction will be. For instance he knows he's not allowed to throw his food on the floor (which the doggies wait under his high chair for), so he holds the food out above the dogs and just looks for my reaction and when I say "no" he drops it. Today he was pulling out all of the magazines out of the magazine rack and throwing them. He heard me say no so the next time he held it out and stared at me and as soon as I said "no" he threw it.
Sunday morning Dean woke up with a fever and he's had it all this week until today. I'm hoping it's gone for good as he sleeps even worse when he's sick and he's not a good sleeper to begin with. I'm so tired and I know he is too. Plus I don't think either of us want to go back to the doctor as we were there yesterday just to make sure he was ok.
It's almost time for Dean's bath so I have to get going as he is currently occupying himself with the dog toys. I guess he doesn't know the difference between his toys and the dog toys. It's not like the dogs don't play with his toys.
