Daley Ponderings

5/7 - Noah was sitting on the kitchen floor, trying to plug the breadmaker into his bellybutton.

He consistently and safely climbs up the stairs by himself now.  Though I do still like to be behind him. 

Related to this, I really have to  pay attention.  I mentioned before that Noah (unlike his brother) will come looking for me instead of just sitting down and crying.  A couple of times recently he has gone upstairs looking for me when I've only been in the next room.

5/10 - We were in the kitchen and Noah all of a sudden started uttering alarm yells.  I rushed over to see him clinging to the top stair precariously keeping himself from falling down the flight.

The 10th tooth, matching right molar, is beginning to show itself.  Mercifully, he hasn't been too cranky about this, just drooling and chewing his fingers.

Noah likes to throw things now.  His aim isn't very good yet.

Today a couple of times I thought he said, "yes."

He has been experimenting more frequently with standing on his own.   This afternoon, he stood up for about five seconds!  By the way, he is quite graceful about sitting down again.  He really lowers himself down instead of plopping.
