The minister of chubs is starting to grow up. As you know, he can army crawl. He is starting to get pretty good at pulling himself up and standing, using a parent's legs, or the couch. He hasn't mastered it yet, and he doesn't know how to sit back down once he stands up. But he's really learning fast.

He's really into the solid foods, as you might expect, since he's an eating savant. "Puffs" and Os are a big hit--although having just one in his mouth makes him angry. Three are preferred. He can do a pincer grasp sometimes, and on one occasion he's managed to put an O into his own mouth.

He somehow discovered that he really likes to play ball, both with me and Katie.

Finn is growing up too, and is excited for our move next month to Santa Cruz. He is excited for the big yard and the big garden. I don't think he knows that we'll be really close to the pond that he liked visiting, so that will be a fun surprise. He and Katie made letter cookies this week. He's a big fan of "F."
