xavier is growing up really fast, with an increasing vocubulary and improved hand eye coordination

he has started playing football on friday afternoons at nick corrigan's football school, and loves it, enjoying playing with the ball, learning skills and running around non-stop...

xavier is such a good biy with olivia, taking care of her, looking out for her, and trying not to get frustrated when we can't play with him, or when olivia interferes with his games

at scholl, he has made a few friends - kane, sean, ben, sam, ella, alex to name some - recently he went over for a playdate (by himself) at kane's house - at one point, kane went to his room for quiet time, but unperturbed, xavier just kept on playing with kane's mum, apparently with non-stop chatter, as is his way

xavier is very independent and is perfectly fine on his own for sleepovers whether at either grandparents or cousins

he is still very thin, with most of his pants falling off him at some point - and belts are a pain especially when toilets are involved!

he absolutely loves his lego - it's full sized stuff, but already he i s showing fine motor skills and excellent creativity

not sure how quickly he is developing at school, but he'll fins his own way to do things in his own time
