http://duvan.boshoff.za.net/archives/2004_01.html
January 4, 2004 12:30 AM. He scored his first century on Saturday. Growth spurt. Just when you get used to one schedule, a growth spurt comes around to shuffle things around a bit! Imitating sounds. We're seeing the first signs of Duvan trying to imitate the sounds that we make. It's still very spotty and not entirely reproducible, but it's so much fun and really exciting when he decides to play along! First visit to the zoo! He saw lions (yup he watched them! Last week Duvan was in a growth spurt, so he...

http://duvan.boshoff.za.net/archives/2004_04.html
April 2, 2004 11:00 PM. He's always loved music, and now shakes his whole upper body and head side to side whenever the music on his activity seat comes on. It's also a whole new level of interaction, because he immediately looks at one of us with this big smile and dances vigorously to get our attention. He also loves it when we do it back to him! We've lived with Mom and Dad now for a month, and it has been a tremendous blessing. They treated us so well and we're so thankful for their hospitality.

June 30, 2004 08:56 PM. Duvan figured out the 14 things you need to know to crawl. So now he does it! Duvan today showed a surprising capacity to comprehend us. We taught him to point to the light in the room. We'd go, "Duvan, where's the light? Where's the light, Duvan? Then take his arm and point to the light while we go, "There's the light! Then we'd ask him again, and he pointed it out! It's these precious little moments, that are simple strands woven together to form this wonderful experience. It's ...

See the picture below! Duvan started playing peek-a-boo behind large objects. He hides behind anything that he can pull him up against, crouches down and then shoots up with a big "whoa! Duvan finished a whole Provita all by himself today. Today we had our first real scare! See the story below). Today one of th...

Duvan started to push his arms through the sleeves of his onesies when we dress him. It's so cute, we'll just put it in place and he basically dresses himself :). It's the little things that parents notice. At 23 weeks, Duvan started holding out his arms to you if he saw you were coming to pick him up. Duvan hanging out w...

Duvan Christoph: Signing
http://duvan.boshoff.za.net/archives/000163.html
Laquo; Balancing Act. We're still around ». September 4, 2004 09:21 PM. We're not quite sure how to describe this, but Duvan recently started responding to us when we threaten to chase him. He knows it's a game and will start to laugh and crawl away as fast as he can. Also, when he's heading for a toy, we'll say we're going to get there first, and he'll scoot over as fast as he can to beat us to the toy! And he'll vigorously perform the "please" sign if he wants to have something. It's so so cute! He's s...

(Uh-huh, you guessed it, 2/100 babies are taller than Duvan at this age! The smiles abounded this week, and he now definitely expresses excitement with smiling. Marésa also had him laughing today while "pedaling the bicycle" with him. He loves it when he's on his back and you move his legs as if he's riding a bicycle. Of our family webpage (that i...
