All Kinds of New Tricks

Logan is really learning and growing. Garrick and I have both commented on all of the things that he's started doing - just in the last week or two. Here are some of Logan's newest "tricks" (as Stephen calls them)... giving "five", clapping, giving kisses, waving goodbye, doing some of the motions to "eensy weensy spider," and standing on his own. He is still not walking, and honestly, I think it'll be a while. He just doesn't seem very interested in it. He gets around really fast with his crawl, and I think he might get around even faster when he bear crawls. He LOVES to be outside and seems to find all kinds of things to put in his mouth when he is outside. :(


Logan's latest favorite toys, once again, really aren't toys at all. We have a garbage can that automatically opens when you put your hand near the top. Logan can get it to open, and he loves to put things in it. I think it's like a game of basketball to him. We have had to fish all kinds of things out of the garbage can - balls, stuffed animals, dominoes, blocks, etc. We are looking for a solution to this problem and have come up with a few ideas, but we're just not quite sure what we'll do.

Logan's other new favorite toy is the printer/copier. The paper tray folds up and down, and Logan loves to move it. He also loves to lift the lid and put things under it, as if he is making copies. It's pretty funny. I tried to take a picture of Logan "copying" his fleece hat this morning, but my camera's batteries were low. I'll have to try again later.
