What's new...

The past few weeks have been tiring. Between work and Obiwan, I barely have time for anything else. I have a few pictures on my phone but my laptop is slow as hell and I can't upload them. Even the internet at home is unpredictable and I can't even post as much as I did.

But let's talk about Obiwan...

• Obiwan is grown up. He's a very big 11 month old.
• He has 6 teeth. But I don't have pictures of his teeth. It's very hard to catch him with his mouth open. He smiles a lot but when you have a camera in front of him, curiosity takes over and he puts on a very serious look.
  
• He looks when you call his name. He answers to Ben (or Bin because his nanny pronounces it that way).
• He knows the members of the family. When you ask him where Daddy is, he looks at me; when asked where Mommy is, he looks at his grandmother; Lolo, he looks at his grandfather; Tita Sasha, he looks at my older sister, Tito Adrian, he looks at my younger brother; Tita Maggie, he looks at my sister's picture on the wall (even when my sister is actually right there in the room).
• He doesn't know how to say anything. He makes sounds but not words. Not yet.
• He likes a little TV. He likes Yo Gabba Gabba and Dora in Nickelodeon Jr. He also likes the Palmolive Shampoo commercial with Dennis and Marjorie Padilla's daughter.
• His favorite toy is Doggy. A stuffed dalmation given to him by his Ate Chris. Doggy is biting a stuffed bone which Obiwan also likes to bite. Obiwan eventually won and took Doggy's bone with him.
• He has an affinity to keys. I can't understand it. Maybe it's the way they shine or the way they jingle. But show him a set of keys and he'll stop whatever he's doing.
• He went to Trinoma once. But I'd rather have him walk first before we make a habit of going to malls.
