Bathtime and Crawling!!!

Who thought I would get great excitement from a half bath and some crawling? Three year old in a body cast makes you slow down and appreciate the little things. This morning M laid on the kitchen counter and played in the sink until his little neck hurt from the odd angle of it. He loved playing in the water this much.....

And he played so long his hands (which had not been submersed in water for 2 1/2 weeks) looked like this....

This weekend we took things slow and went out only a couple of times. It is cumbersome to haul him around. D has come up with a new way to use the wagon; instead of laying him down in it he puts the car seat in it (yes, it is secure--though it makes me nervous) and M rides like he is on a throne. E and G started swim lessons. D went in to watch them and said they both did terrific. M played in the playroom several times and the last time he did he kept scooting off his pillow and across the floor a little bit to get to different toys. Yeah! He's crawling..... or scooting... or at least making an effort to move on his own instead of screaming for us every second of every day. Doc appt tomorrow so I wlll keep everyone updated.

love and hugs, B
