Kids....the final frontier
posted on 10/27/2009
My mom was out visiting us this last week, and all of us went to the Tournament of the Phoenix Jousting competition in Poway. We had a lot of fun, even Will. He loved watching the knights on their horses, the musical groups, all the general people, the for-adoption greyhounds, and the gypsy horses. He had such a great time that he refused to take a nap, and wasn't really even grouchy about it until a couple hours later. We were all very impressed with him. None of us thought he'd do nearly as well as he did. We took lots of pictures and those'll be put up on our flickr site before too long.
Will is very proficient at crawling now; he's a veritable speed demon on four, uh, limbs? We've baby proofed the downstairs and just put up the babygate at the base of the stairs, and now I can simply let him roam all over without too much worry. It's much, MUCH better. I feel like I could retain what little is left of my sanity. Sweet, sweet sanity.
It seems like the Beet is learning something new everyday; he can now nod his head "yes" (although it's more like headbanging than nodding), he's learned how to spin the desk chair in circles, and he's perfected crawling up stairs. He still doesn't talk, and he's not figured out walking yet either. All in good time, I'm sure.
