messy

This picture goes with the video that I posted earlier of Drew eating pasta (and putting the spoon on his head). You got an idea of how he made the mess from the video, this close-up of his face shows the resulting mess. It took a while to get him cleaned up! We have been working for months with Drew to do "soft touches." Here he is in action practicing his soft touches on our living room plant. It was so amusing to watch him pet the leaves! I was remembering as he did this that the pot for this plant was one of the first things that Drew pulled himself up on. Now the top of the pot is at waist height!

Drew loves to pull the pillows off our couch and then try to stand on them or else to wrestle with them. At other times, he'll pull a pillow down, lie down on it, and say, "night, night!"

After Drew's bath his hair was a little crazy!

Drew found my gloves in the closet, so we had some fun playing with them.

Drew is so into the camera at times that it makes it hard to get a picture! I pulled out the camera to take some video of him and he immediately came over, tried to grab the camera to put it on him, and started saying "cheese!" I've learned to take pictures from a distance and to zoom in :)

In this video Drew is flipping through the pages of one of his books. He is very good at flipping the panels open and this is one of the books that he "reads" to us. He knows the names of the animals, so he'll flip from page to page saying the name of each animal. At the end of this video he gets a little crazy with a couch pillow, lands on his head, and says "ow."
