Out of the way, he's coming through!

When Grady feeds himself ...

This is the mess that happens! Unless we are giving Grady something that needs to be eaten with a spoon, he completely feeds himself. It's great for him to have the ability and independence to pick up the cubes of food and feed himself, but it's also very messy! (It wouldn't be so bad if he didn't rip off his bib - not all the time - but sometimes, he just refuses to wear one).

Stairs (with Auntie Heather)

Auntie Heather was here visiting last week. Since Grady has figured out crawling on his hands and knees, she decided to teach him how to climb the stairs. After a week of practice, he's getting pretty good at going up them.

(He can actually crawl up 3-4 stairs at a time without stopping, but whenever I get the camera out, he decides to be shy!)

He never gets tired of it ...

On all fours

Since Christmas, Grady has been doing his own version of crawling - it was kind of a stomach shuffle. Well, just last week he started crawling on all fours! It happened so quickly ... one day he got up on his hands and knees and started crawling. He's very good at it now.
