This forking thing...

"Failure? I never encountered it. All I ever met were temporary setbacks."

while he hasn't quite figured out his fork yet, he sure likes to carry it around with him ALL THE TIME!

Thomas's achievements for the week


Walking (several steps at a time)
throwing the ball (about twelve inches, Jonah is frustrated)
clapping
bouncing on the bed.
Putting things back in the drawers, sometimes the ones he has just emptied.
Right now he is playing peek a boo with his reflection in the big soup pot Daddy got for christmas.


Thomas started clapping yesterday, prior to that he would just wave both hands really fast whenever anyone clapped. In his bath yesterday morning I noticed he was interlacing his fingers with interest. Then suddenly last night there was clapping. He had a couple of misfires, hitting himself in the face, missing alltogether and once when he got confused and tried clapping with only one hand.....but it is all sorted out.

Can we get a round of applause?
