What on earth?

posted 15th Jan
So, DS decided a while ago he didn't want to eat anymore. He went for 2 weeks where he would barely eat at all. Then he was eating a little more, but still not as well as he was. For the past hour every time I sit down he grabs my hand and starts pulling on me so I get up and he runs to the kitchen, checking every few feet that I'm following him. He just started doing that in the past couple weeks (he's 20 months and speech/socially delayed). He gets to the kitchen, stands in the middle of the room and signs "help, please" and I have no idea what he wants help with so I'm looking around the room trying to figure it out and he goes to the fridge, so I open it and let him get in there to see what he's going for and he grabs the bologna. He's already had a sandwich for lunch, but I make him another one. He eats it then does the whole thing all over again. So I make him ANOTHER sandwich. Three sandwiches. He eats all of it then drags me to the kitchen AGAIN and wanted a bowl of dry cereal. Now he's eating that and just downed 12 ounces of milk. What on earth is he eating so much for all of a sudden?? Anybody else's toddlers do this?

Maybe he's going to go through a growth spurt?? I know my cousin did that. It sounds terribly cute though.

Yeah, that's what I'm figuring. He didn't do this with his last one though, just slept a lot. It definitely is cute, though! lol. I'm enjoying him asking for my help since that's not something he usually does haha.

I'm just not used to him wanting to eat so much, even during growth spurts. When he was under a year he would eat extra, but after that he just started sleeping more. He grew three inches in 3 months between 15 and 18 months and had he not started being able to reach things off the counter I wouldn't have noticed he grew that much.

Things like that are what I'm most excited for... well that and finally having her here. And her first giggles. But I keep imagining a toddler haha.

It's definitely something else lol. Enjoy the little baby moments too, though! I miss DS being too little to wiggle away when I wanted to cuddle and that started at 4 months! hahaha It is fun playing games like hide and seek with him, though. He always gives his spot away because he can't keep himself from giggling lol.

That's so cute. My 10 month old niece just runs everywhere now. Its insane because I held her when she was 5 minutes old... all I want is something to convince this baby its time to come out so I can snuggle her and dress her up.
