Mine makes a face (the same face) when he is hungry - looks like he is sucking a lemon! Gets crazy if there is other nice food on the table (ie not on his plate) and points, crys etc util he gets some even if its just the other half of the banana he is already eating.
Says D-D-D for dog and DaDa for dad, use to say MaMa but seems to have stopped that now. Nursery tell us he says bye and thanks (in Swedish) when he is with them but no attempt at those words at home in either Eng or Swe. Otherwise 'communication' is gruntting, growling and pointing. Used to understand passing, fetching objects but has slid back a bit as he hearing less Eng and more Swe.
Starting to walk with a push along walker (obv crawls and cruises furniture), pushes into you (adults only) with his head and laughs manically when you move.
Bites and throws himself backwards when he gets over excited,
Looks at you when you say No, stop, his name - smiles and carrys on with whatever he was doing. We've started mini time outs to calm him down when needed!
Likes to 'help' with adult stuff, washing up, fixing the lawn mower/car etc not esp interested in his own toys except ones that make music (he does a little sitting dance), and his blocks (and I think that is just because he recently learnt to build his own tower to knock down). Turns pages in books but also just as likley to try to eat them, not really interested in having them read to him.
