All Done!

I sat Dylan in his highchair next to me in the kitchen this afternoon while I made us some fresh juice (I have a juicer so it's not that hard and as the cold season hits, I'm attempting to keep us healthier). Don't worry - Dylan was armed with his cup of milk, the child hasn't mastered more than a few ounces of patience. As I finished up the juicing Dylan handed me his cup, which usually means he's out of milk, but when I took it from him I could tell it was still completely full. I handed it back and said, "You still have milk in there." He handed it back to me and said, "all done". After months of signing all done and sometimes randomly saying it, he showed he actually understood what it meant. He was done with his milk and wanted some juice! Needless to say, I was very excited!

We also made some "discovery bottles" today. Okay, so I made them and Dylan played with them. These two (see picture below) are pretty basic and I plan on getting a few supplies this week to make a few more that are more exciting. The first one was just water and oil and the second was was water, oil, and food coloring. He loved them both and think he'll love the other ones we make this week. I used gorilla glue to really seal the bottles off - he's not strong enough to untwist them yet but with my luck if I didn't, we'd have a messy disaster on our hands one day. 

Please excuse the messy shirt - a combo of juice and some teething drool!

I know this picture looks like he's trying to eat the bottle but he's actually shaking it up (I had to do a little prompting of, "shake! shake! shake!").
