stacking, cards, socks, cars, mommy sense, books

Who needs blocks when you can stack canned foods and juice?
 

After Everett ate chunks of the Queen of Spades and 10 of Hearts, we fastened a "lock" on the game cupboard. He almost got through it once before I secured it again.
He also managed to push the "open" button on the dvd player. He thought that was pretty cool. So cool that he then yanked on the dvd tray until the player almost fell on him.

He recently started to try to put his own socks on and will even take them off in order to put them back on again. 

He now treats his toy cars as such and no longer just as an object to be placed inside of other objects.

Here he starts out playing with his cars on a plastic lid and then plays with the lid. It is not the cutest video ever but I just thought it was kind of funny how he uses the lid as a means of transportation.


Other random development: he now has this "Mommy sense" where he knows the moment when I wake up or am done showering and comes calling and crawling after me. He'll be happily playing with his daddy but then he just knows that his mommy is now available and he is determined to find her. His understanding of the sounds he hears amazes me. And how well he knows his way around our home.

He also now hands me books to read to him. Precious! He used to do so in the same way he hands other items to me (wanting them back after I have my turn), but now he actually wants me to read them to him when he does it. And he now will turn individual subsequent pages instead of just flipping the book closed. 
I love that the library is so close. Free books! And each one is novel! (get it?)
