True Blue Update

It's been a long time since an update on Hiroshi Truth, so here is what is going on. Please remember that this is a baby blog and is taking the place of a baby book so it will be very Hirocentric. I am also going to update colleenechohawk.blogspot.com soon if you want other news.

He is very very friendly. Today in the store he waved and said bye-bye to everyone which is charming but also weird to have to make eye contact with everyone we came in contact with. The other problem at the grocery store is the strong attraction to balloons so as I try to quickly shop he spends his time pointing and yelling about bloons.

He is a great eater and today went crazy over a big bowl of mushroom and pea risotto and a side of roasted broccoli. He also will eat sushi, kimchi, onions, cooked tomatoes, salad any sort of fruit and he LOVES chocolate. His favorite foods are watermelon, rice and any other kinds of fruit. Uncle Bob gave him a delicious ripe peach and it nearly sent him over the moon. He sat in his highchair, dripping peach juice and yelling, "yum-yum"!

His words are multiplying every day. Yesterday he surprised me when he yelled, "Abu" when Auntie Abi left the house. He other words include, Mom, Dad, Bob, Lala (pronounced Luuuu), help, more, please, juice, cheese, food, melon (mnnn), shoes, fish, buffy (sort of his favorite stuffed animal a blue giraffe/dinosaur thing), ball, out and others that I can't think of right now!

Favorite activities include our twice weekly play date with Auntie Ana and Baby Judah, Auntie Nad and Cohen and Lola. We usually go to the indoor play area at Northgate Community Center and he is getting very comfortable playing with the other kids and toys. His favorite is the pink,princess slide which is a little dangerous because he is often dressed in very slippery track suits that makes it very hazardous if he is alone. Another favorite is anytime Miguel and Noni are around he is a happy, happy little boy, the cousins have a love affair going on and it is really cute.

At this point in the game we haven't really settled on exactly what we will call him. I call him True Blue most of the time. Matt usually calls him Hiro Cun (pronounced coon and is Japanese for little friend). Noni calls him Baby-Head which is very funny.

All and all he is a beautiful, wonderful little boy, we enjoy him tremendously!
I will update pictures as soon as I can and thanks for reading!
