Knock-knock

Callia has learned how to tell knock-knock jokes. Here are a couple that she made up herself.

Knock-knock.
Who's there?
Peach.
Peach who?
Peach bump.

Knock-knock.
Who's there?
Peach.
Peach who?
Peach in the cow. Ahh! I'm falling!!!

I don't have any guesses as to what they mean, other than that she must not get any of the actual jokes so she thinks none of them make any sense. If she was aiming for something that didn't make any sense, I think she did pretty good.

Sitting up

Thaddeus is doing great sitting up! Today in church I took him into the nursery and sat him down on the floor and he just sat there. He didn't need any help at all. And he sat there for a long time, not just a minute. I kept waiting for him to fall over but he didn't. It seems like this has come out of nowhere. Just a week ago he couldn't sit up on his own for more than a few seconds, and he would just flop over. Yesterday he sat up for a short period of time. I guess he figured out he can do it and he's going for it. I'm so proud!

Little Swinger

Thaddeus is so motivated to sit up that he enjoys doing it even in his swing now, instead of reclining! And no, the swing has not been shrinking. Its a great way to see how much he has been growing.
