movin' n groovin'

well, he's movin', anyway... the groove has been VERY off this afternoon! i think we'll be seeing more teeth fairly soon here. cole's latest favorite activity, besides whining endlessly, is 'walking'. he does really well! the first time he tried it a few days ago, kelvin almost busted a gut- it was pretty hilarious to see cole taking these HUGE steps, like he was trying to do the splits!

this is why we let cole have free reign with the old laptop- if he played with the new one, we'd be missing an awful lot of keys! those little fingers just work their way underneath and off they pop. so of course, he wants to chew on them and of course mommy and daddy meanly take them away...

is this what they mean by spaced? (he's torn off the space bar key...)

the missing keys all end up in the storage in the arm of the futon- good place for them. the other side is for spare change. good for something...

and this is the laptop AFTER cole was done with it for the day. the work of a genius, no?

we have found out that cole loves the limelight even more than we thought- last night after bible study, we put him on the floor to crawl around (his reward for sitting all the way through). he explored a little and then realized that ALL eyes were on him- all 12 pairs. i braced myself for the panicked screams that i was so sure were going to erupt any second, but he just looked around at everyone, then layed on his tummy, propped himself a little to one side and kicked his leg up at the knee, like he was posing in some vintage lingerie ad. what a goof! the self-satisfied smile on his face said it all...
