Almost Standing!

Patrick is really starting to pull up on the furniture these days. He hasn't quite mastered it yet. He likes to get on his knees and hold on to all sorts of things. I don't think he's too fond of actually STANDING and holding on yet. His favorite spots are windows and things he can see his reflection in. He's very social, and I think he thinks it's another baby he's playing with!

We had the blinds up to our doors out to the patio yesterday and he did actually pull himself up to standing. His Dad was out there entertaining him, and he thought it was hysterical!

I am sure you'll notice that my son has no clothing on and, YES, I know it's DECEMBER. He prefers to NOT have clothes on. AND, he had just devoured a couple of teething crackers that made a terrible mess on his outfit, his face, his high chair, the kitchen floor, etc. Yesterday was one of those days where we were just doing WHATEVER IT TOOK to keep him happy! The poor thing is teething in a bad way. Sunday was rough!


Patrick also has a real knack for crawling into the tiniest spots. He likes to get into all sorts of knooks and crannies. He is into peek-a-boo and hide-and-seek. He thinks it's hysterical. This is him in between the seat of the rocking chair and the floor, which is a space LESS THAN A FOOT tall. He was grunting and groaning, but thought it was funny at the same time. You can see in the photo that his face looks red - he had started to cry because he realized he was stuck. Then got mad because his Momma went to get the camera first before helping him out! HAHA! (And yes, he's still naked!) HAHA!
