I turned around and saw this...

Now, I know what you're thinking..."So what, Megan. He's sitting on the couch reading a book like a good boy." But...he got there himself! He didn't grunt and carry on needing help. He didn't fall or cry. He just picked up his nursery rhyme book and climbed onto the couch to read for a while. He was pointing at the stories he liked and he was talking to himself as though he was reading. All evening, he just kept climbing up and down and looking very proud of himself.

The picture below was from this morning at breakfast. He was talking on the "phone" (actually a little Sudoku electronic game that he found in a drawer someplace). When I asked him who he was talking to he said "Ap" (Libby). So I told him to smile for Aunt Libby, and this is what we got. He also made our day this morning because when we left for work, he said "love you". There's nothing better...

Another newsflash. Skinny Minny is wearing a pair of 18-24 month pants from Gymboree today. Granted, they're rolled over at the waist, but they're on him and aren't falling back down when he walks. Now, if ever we get out of size 3 diapers, I'll be amazed. I've been sitting on a stock of 4's since before Christmas thinking that he was soon going to need them, but I just ordered another huge box of 3's. They're not looking too small any time soon.

Hope you all have a great day! We'll talk to you soon.
