New things

Things Jack has mastered in the last week:

1. Getting into a standing position without holding on to anything.
2. Opening the cabinets in the kitchen.
3. Opening the drawers in the kitchen.
4. Opening the cabinets in the bathroom.
5. Dragging toilet paper down the hall.
6. Grabbing and shredding Kleenex that I am trying to wipe his nose with.
7. Chewing his food, but leaving whole the select pieces he does not want to swallow.
8. Taking those pieces carefully out of his mouth, and throwing them on the floor.
9. Arching his back and screaming when you do something he does not like.
10. Sleeping in his crib until the somewhat manageable hour of 7 a.m.
11. Grinding his new top tooth against his bottom teeth.
12. Drinking milk from a sippy cup, then letting it all dribble out onto his shirt.
13. Drinking watered-down juice from a sippy cup, and not losing a drop.
14. Eating actual pieces of bread by taking bites, rather than Mommy cutting it in pieces.
15. Snuggling.

He's been busy.
