It's been quite some time since I updated about Solomon. He is growing up pretty fast now - and going through phases and so on.
His latest phase is Fireman Sam. It all started a little while back when we got Digital 'On Demand' with Charter. It was great - we could watch all sorts of shows whenever we wanted (Myth Busters being a particular favorite). Anyway - I think it was Jason that showed him some Fireman Sam on the Sprout channel. He was hooked. He demanded Fireman Sam everyday. He went to North Carolina for quite a few weeks and we thought he may forget about it - but no. We were given some cash to buy something for Solomon - so Stacy got a three DVD box set of Fireman Sam from Amazon. He watches it everyday. I don't know how he can watch the same thing so many times, but he could probably watch the same thing all day!
He can ride a bike with stabiliser wheels on it (training wheels). He is actually pretty good at it now. He rides all over the house.
I took him swimming for the first time on Monday. He was not afraid at all. He got in there and choked loads of times because he kept getting out of his depth.
The kids pool was not enough. He wanted to be where the action was in the grown up pool! He tried to jump in there many times. Thankfully Jason was on the other side of the dividing wall to stop him. He had no interest in actually swimming - just playing with other people's stuff - like inflatable balls and stuff.
He is certainly not shy!
The other big news is that he has started to go to the toilet. This is great news. It would be great to not have to buy nappies any more. He still has not pooed in the toilet yet - but it is only a matter of time...
He is talking a lot more - which is good. We can understand what he actually wants now.
He is addicted to TV it seems. We need to ween him off it and get him to read more books (or read books to him).
