Heartbreaker!

When I was leaving the house to run an errand this evening, the little stinker waved and said "Byeeee!" so I waved and said "Bye! I love you!" He replied with something that could be interpreted as "I love you." My heart melted, and then he slammed the door and yelled "Byeee!!!"

*sigh*

Changing the subject, the little booger's teachers said that he sang "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" today. He sang it pretty well (it was basically recognizable) in the car on the way home, so I tried to get it on video tonight. Here he is not really cooperating with me:

And here he is not cooperating at all with his dad:

Feeling Better!

The little dude stayed home with his daddy today. He seems to be feeling a ton better, even though practically all he ate today was shredded wheat. Here he is shaking things up with some graham crackers.

He also took his first self-portrait tonight.

That's my boy!

Sick Day

The little booger ran a fever this morning, so we spent most of the day home together. Here he enjoying yogurt and a video after a long nap.

He was pretty lethargic, so we had a quiet and snuggly afternoon.

Elbow!

The little stinker loves Elmo (he calls him "Elbow?"). He has a book with Elmo in it, and we also occasionally watch Elmo on YouTube. Here he is watching Elmo's Ducks tonight. This video starts slow, but I think it's worth watching through to the end...

Thinking outside the box?

The little booger got a pretty sweet tricycle for Christmas from his Nana and Pops. Today he decided he preferred the back seat over the, um, more traditional one.

He also put his sock in the ball-popper. (We managed to get it out.)

Creative thinking is good, right?

He's HUGE!!!

We spent the afternoon cleaning out the closet in the guest bedroom. There was a huge pile of old baby stuff, so we took things apart and put the pieces in bins and it all looks much tidier now. Anyway, the little booger had a blast playing with everything when we pulled it all out. Here he is sitting in his Moses basket. He climbed in himself.

It's hard to believe how much bigger he is now than he used to be. See? Same basket.

Inside Joke?

We were reading Moo, Baa, La La La again tonight (surprise!) and the little booger thought it was hilarious to say "Baa" when I asked him what a cow says. He was in hysterics. Here's a bit of it:

He was really cheerful tonight-- which is good because he bit someone today at daycare. It was our first incident report. Apparently the other kid put his/her fingers in my son's mouth, but still! One of my coworkers said to be grateful he didn't ask for a side of fava beans and a nice chianti. *sigh* Happy Friday!
