i think we have a toddler on our hands.

It has been a while since my last post. Harrison was sick on and off for the last few weeks and it was tough to get a good pic or video and even tougher to steal a bit of time to put my thoughts together to write something to post to the blog. I was also on antibiotics and I think Todd was sick too at some point in there. Anyway, it is currently the first sick free week that I can remember (at least for a while) :)  Yay!! 

Harrison now has 8 teeth (teething only added salt to the wounds when he was sick). He is walking around like a mad man and getting into everything. Yesterday morning we had friends over for brunch. While we were talking at the table he was walking in and out from the kitchen to the deck - there was millisecond of silence when he was out of my sight line and the next thing we see it a mouth full of dirt and a huge grin!

He is chattering up a storm - what we speech pathologists call jargoning - he is now saying 'doggie' and pointing to every doggie, 'dada', 'mama' occasionally, 'uh-oh', bye-bye, 'all done'. He is also beginning to have a mind of his own. He wants to do things by himself and walk everywhere. He tries to squirm right out of my arms while we are walking down the stairs in the morning to go to school, he screams if we try to offer him assistance with food or a toy and then proceeds to launch it across the room....I think this means he is a toddler - so help me God!
