Today, he let go of what he was holding onto at Gymboree and tried to stand alone. It didn't last long. Maybe one second. But it was long enough that I know it's coming soon.

His words are getting clearer. Even now, I can convince myself that his speech is in my head, but sometimes he says something so clearly that I just look at him. Today, while I was putting him in his carseat, he pointed at the light thing above and said "light."

Oh yeah. The pointing thing is pretty cool. That improves communication a lot.

When you ask him what a doggie says, he makes his voice very high and says "Arf arf!" It's a testament to where I live that he didn't say "woof woof." The dogs here tend to fit in purses.
