Archie is an amazing little guy. He is so smart, so curious, and so inventive! You can see him thinking, and figuring out, and then see him do, whatever it is he sets his mind to.
This week he has learned to pick up Cheerios and put them in his mouth. It is so crazy to see! The first time he tried, he looked at them and swung at them, then grabbed and went for his mouth. The next time, he remembered what to do and got to practicing again. The next time, he had it down. That's how he is with everything! He is so smart, focused and busy!
His favorite thing is his walker lately. All he needs is turn signals and a horn, and he is ready for the big roads! I watch him zoom around in it while I'm cooking dinner, and it is so funny! I have seen 3 point turns, and he reverses like it's second nature to him!
Today, when the kids headed off to school, he literally RAN after them and saw them off from the open doorway. He likes to head to the oven to pull all the towels off and then gaze at his reflection in the oven door. He also makes a run for the laundry room door every time is opens. I don't know what his fascination is with that room, but he gets in there, shuts the door with his walker and just hangs out in the dark. I think it's sad that he gets trapped in there, so I try to keep it shut. But, whenever it opens, you can hear his little feel running and see him steering his way in as fast as he can.
Here are some pictures.
You can see the pure joy of sweet freedom written all over his drooly, little face!
This is the view we see of him most of the time...the back of his head in a mad dash to somewhere he is running off to!
