He's so much like a toddler these days and no longer a little baby:

• He likes to sing along to his CDs. For Old McDonald he sings e-i-e-i-o over and over.
• He loves to be chased. He also likes to run and hide from you when its time to get his faced wiped he'll run under the table or before bed he runs into his room and hides in the closet.
• Starting to put a few words together - all-done bath, more water (when he wanted to get dunked in the pool). And loves to point out things that he knows the words for.
• Starting to eat a few more things - peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and cream cheese on a bagel. Loves all kinds of fruit - though his favorite fruit changes every few weeks. Currently its raspberries and blueberries.
• Starting to learn a few letters. His favorite is O and likes to point it out when ever he sees it. Sometimes he also knows A, B, and L. Still has a lot more to learn to keep up with Nathan (Held family blog) and Andrew (playgroup friend) - they know the entire alphabet!
• Loves to be a little helper - if you give him something to carry or to take to someone he gets the biggest smile on his face when he finishes his task.
• Loves to clean - dust, sweep or use the swiffer mop. He's obsessed! he'll say "clean" and sign clean to ask for a dust rag or say "sweep" for the broom. Not sure where he learned this from.
