a quick update

posted by mommy

we've had a few new developments with everett in the last week or so. he took his first steps...only a couple and doesn't do it often, but walking is just around the corner! and although he may not be quite ready to fully walk, he is a big climber. he can already climb by himself all the way up the bunk bed ladder to the top. the other day, i was making breakfast and the boys were in the playroom. owen was up on the exercise ball at the office desk listening to music and watching a slide show of pictures. suddenly, i heard owen yell, "everett, no, you can't get up here. everett, no. mommy, everett, no, get everett. mommy!!!" i came running in, assuming ev was simply trying to climb up on the ball, but instead was horrified to see my little one crawling on top of the desk! he had quickly figured out he could get on one of the little kid chairs, up onto the kid's table, and then onto the desk. oh dear!

he also is now clearly saying mama (and knows what he's saying!) and nana (banana, which he has every morning). he also in the last couple days has started saying dada more, which daddy loves. everett is also doing a few signs regularly - more, all done, and let's pray (clasps his hands together).

he also loves giving kisses...but we get all wet as he leaves his mouth wide open still! no new teeth yet, but based on some very fussy days in the last couple weeks and a few too many very rough nights (we knew his sleeping through the night was too good to last!), we expect one or more any day now.
