Monkey Matters

Little Leo is enjoying his Tuesdays home with Kevin. This week they sent Mommy a few images of their play time. Leo wanted to show Dad (and Mom)that yes, he can fit the Monkey's whole hand into his mouth - not just the finger tips.

Aside from Monkey Business, the boys also raked the leaves in the backyard into a pile... and watched as the wind blew them around! Leo loves to be outside. When we go for walks, Leo will turn his head and crane his neck to look at the leaves on the trees - he loves the different colors! It is so amazing watching him discover the world around him.

Another favorite for Leo this week is looking in the mirror. He will smile and kick his feet when we stand in the bathroom looking at our reflections. Leo recognizes Mommy and Daddy, but is wondering who that cool little kid is with them...

There is a lot of singing in our house... and I am not a good singer :) But we sing about just about anything. There are a few regulars that are sung many times throughout the day (and night), the "I Love Leo" song, the "Lullaby & Goodnight" song, and last night was a new and special rendition "You've got Good Parents" sung to James Taylor's "You've Got a Friend." Leo liked it! Serenading him gets lots of smiles, coo's, and foot kicking.
