take me out!

Poor crispin has been cooped up all day. I did take him out for a bit in the later afternoon, but not for long.
Anyway, in this time I was able to sit with Crispin and hear him use new words and see him finally sign "please" when he wanted to nurse. AAAH - So sweet. He can say "horse" and "hand" He loves the fire engine VHS that Slade and Jack loved as little ones. He only likes the beginning and then he changes the channel. He will mmmm like a fire engine when he wants to watch the movie or if he hears sirens. We live right by the fire house and he will mmmm when he see the trucks. He has figured out if you turn a laundry basket or big plastic bowl upside down, you can use it as a stepping stool to reach things up high. You know things like knives, scissors, permanent markers, cameras, full glasses of water - those sorts of things. He's like David in "NO David!" Every time you turn your back he's up to something. Last night he broke the letter C off of Dad's laptop. In a blink of an eye he had it out like he knew what he was doing.


This kid is keeping me on my toes. It's a good thing there are other eyes on him too because he's getting too quick for just one person.
