Honestly A only now says dad. As in the last 2 months. He gets confused easily and will call DH mum when that happens but DH just calmly says dad to help him. He calls everyone mum and they just say their name to teach him. A hates shoes and will only wear fake crocs (he can help with them, still gets the wrong feet adn if it doesn't work straight away he gets mad). Aiden obsesses with rubbing his hands over my face and arms and kissing my face. He has gone so far as to kiss drs, teachers and shop assisstants on the hand when happy. He has started licking my skin too (I joke it's ike guinea pigs and salt licks) and he rolls in dirt and has daily dust baths (I tell people he's part quail when they stare). Aiden is very, very high energy with little understanding of emotions and can only react to them in cartoons (sounds nuts but in sad moments in movies he fakes crying and cuddles me, scary bits he cings to me and pretends to tremble, and happy bits make him clap and dance). It's like tv is in technicolour and real life is black and white (happy or angry). There seems to be no inbetween.
