Mama's boy

Fayed is getting to that stage where he's clingy and he only wants his mom! And he won't let me out of his sight...or even when I'm in his sight, he will cry if I turn my back on him and walk 20 feet away. He was more fussy than usual the last couple of weeks, probably because of that. But he's still his energetic, curious self most of the time... He learned he can climb onto the couch, and he's very interested in things that he can't have (things I couldn't even give him if I wanted to, like the smoke detectors by the ceiling), so he just points at them and cries until I'm able to distract him with something else. He's getting more comfortable when we're outside too, he will crawl off of the blanket and stand up in the grass or sand. If he hears music, even if one of us just starts singing, he will do a little "dance." He also loves to play peekaboo with anything he can find...including his own shirt. He still just babbles, no words yet... it mostly sounds like "dar dar dar" and growling. I don't want the summer to end; it will be hard to keep him inside all the time with all his energy - which seems to be growing more all the time.
