he kissed me!

So until recently Dominick has not done "kisses" well 2 weeks ago i was watching his niece Ashlyn at my moms and as im changing her he just goes over to her head and kisses her! i was so shocked because he hasnt wanted anything to do with kissing anyone. Well about a week later his cousin Diana (Johns niece) was watching him and i get a text saying that he just went up and kissed her! Now this is still at the time when he doesnt want to kiss me or John. Yesterday afternoon John and Dom were wrestling on the floor and John was pretending Dom knocked him out and all the sudden you see Dom go over and give him kisses (it was so cute) so i get down on the floor and wait to see if he will do it to me well i waited a very long time! I tried saying give mommy kisses and he would either smack me or turn away from me. Well last night after hours of us nagging him and saying that mommy would be very sad if she didnt get kisses from him he just bent down and kissed me! i was so happy i kinda started crying...i was starting to feel like he didnt want to kiss me lol.

He now has 8 teeth 2 just came through this week and another 2 or so are working there way through very very slowly so again back to waking up in the middle of the nights screaming our heads off and not often are we happy campers over here lol. I feel so bad because we get in our moods not knowing what to do for him but he is going through so much pain we have no right getting like that.

Dominick is also getting better at walking he takes a lot more steps now than before and he is getting so good at walking behind his walking toys but he looks so funny at the same time. were also saying the alphabet and colors and numbers a lot more than before because it sounds like he is trying to say what we say and he knows what things are so instead of just saying "ball" we say "blue ball" or something like that i realize that he wont catch on to all of that right now but cant i just try to think i can make him a genius lol?
