i'm going to try to post pictures tonight while i'm cleaning but no promises. I did want to update that the soccer ball obsession has curbed slightly. It is still a favorite but it is no longer a 'freak out' obsession.

Also, last night, we had our first bloody lip. I'll be honest, i couldn't help but chuckle a little when it happened. He was reaching as far as he could to reach into a basket that was sitting on the coffee table, where usually he just tips over the basket. Last night, though, he chose to not turn it over but to just stand on his 'tippy toes' and reach in. WELL.... of course you know what's coming..... the tippy toes aren't the best of balance yet and he lost his balance, bounced off the edge of the coffee table and popped his lip. Yes, there was blood but not much, however, enough to certainly say we had our first bloody lip. We cried as if the world was over and held our breath for a moment, needed our poppie (pacifier), and then the world settled back in to some kind of normalcy. After we settled down, what did we do?!?! We went right back over to the basket and FINALLY were able to get the thing he wanted in the first place, sat down right there, and played away while the world kept turning! hehehehehe
