You might have noticed it in previous pictures, but this is Drew's toy chest in our living room. It's really nice because it's lightweight, so Drew can lift the lid and not pinch fingers, and it also fits in well with the rest of our room, so when all Drew's toys are in the chest it looks like only adults live in our house! :)

the climber
Finally, another blog post! I apologize for it being so long between posts. I've been doing pretty well with giving regular updates, but the past week or so has been really busy! I miss writing about Drew and putting pictures on here of him, so I'm happy that I am able to post again this week.

We're starting to work more with Drew on using a utensil to eat. Drew will occassionally put the spoon in his mouth, but not always with any food on it!
Drew is starting to ham it up for the camera every once in a while. It's so cool how his personality is emerging and how sometimes he likes to be silly. You can tell he's giving me a funny smile in this picture.
Other times though, he gives me a real smile. In this picture I think you can almost see the twinkle in Drew's eyes. More and more Drew is becoming a little boy. He's not a baby anymore!
Ha! This is Drew's new favorite thing to do: climb on stuff! If there is anything on the ground, he will try to climb on it. Do you remember him putting his foot up on his walker in the last post? Well, now he gets both feet up on things! This is him on our computer case. He looks very pleased with himself, doesn't he?
Drew loves to play intently, and often he won't even notice what is going on around him. I can't imagine where he gets that intensity from! :) He can be silly and fun, but also very serious and intent.
He's at it again . . . this time he climbed up on a box! He worked so hard to get his whole body balanced on top of the box. Notice how his tongue is sticking out. Any box is one of his favorite things now because they are great to climb on.
That includes the box to Drew's Duplo, which is also good for climbing. In this picture he's working on getting the lid on, so he can climb up on the box.
The other night Jana was having fun folding laundry with Drew (you'll notice that we do that a lot with him), and Drew was having a great time with laundry basket (even though it is too tall for him to climb up on).
Woah, that is one dirty boy! After this meal Drew had sauce EVERYWHERE: it was in between every finger, on his arms, on his elbows, on his ears, on his face, in his eyebrows, on his eyelid, on the back of his neck, and in his hair. Guess who got a bath after dinner? :) By the way, one of Drew's favorite foods right now is . . . sauce. This was marinara sauce, which he will literally dip his fingers into and eat right from a pool of it on his tray.
