Aw, I've been so bad at updating! How sad!
Newest word: "hot"... he says it and blows. Probably the most (maybe only) appropriately used word in his vocabulary.
Newest big boy step: he loves to take your hand and walk down the stairs like a big boy. Nevermind that his legs are entirely to short and he basically winds up falling step to step, it's his favorite way to go down. And none of this one-step-at-a-time business, either. He goes one foot on each step, like a REAL big kid.
Newest almost-word: he's started "counting." And by counting, I really mean making noises that sound vaguely like "one...two..." (he hasn't quite got "three" down yet) when we're counting down to throw him in the air.
