Pictures
I am also happy to report that we decorated the Christmas tree this week and so far all ornaments are still on it! He has leaned over and tried to eat several, and pulls on them, but has done exceptionally well. He loves the lights and tries to suck on them too, but no major damage done! I am using the lights to start working with him on identifying colors, and it seems to be working. So far he has learned "blue", and can say it and point to a blue light when you ask. Then we clap and cheer and he loves the attention. Our other new development is the decision to let him feed himself no matter what. He loves to do things himself and gets frustrated if he is not manning the utensils, so this week I decided to let it all go and let him go on his own no matter what we are eating. It has been very interesting already, but he loves it! He now has to eat with his shirt off so I don't worry about stains. He is doing great, and I am hoping more and more food actually gets in his mouth over the next few weeks:) I have a great picture from our spaghetti dinner tonight, but it's not on the computer yet. Other than that we are good. We are getting lots of rain today so Silas is excited at the prospect of duck hunting in the near future!

Shirtless eating, now that's an idea...I might try that one tonight. Good talking with you today, thanks for being encouraging:)
Hopefully, I can get both girls down at the same time today and call you.
Ty is really cute and one day you will try diaper eating, where you strip them down to just a diaper so they don't get stains on their pants, too (especially when they start sitting in a booster seat). Too bad we can't do it at restaurants :)
