The finger and standing


We got a shot of Raif with his finger poised and ready to touch or grab whatever he can get. Lately, he climbs up the side of various object in the house to see what is on top of them. Then he'll stretch his finger out to grab the edge of various things (pens, paper, stuffed animals, important documents) pulling them to the edge so that he could get a better look at them. I've started to place various objects on top of the chairs so that he can explore. He is also getting good at pointing at pictures in books while we name them off.


One morning Eric wanted to see if Raif could do a cheerleading stand. Raif was delighted to help and pose for the camera. Later that day Dennis came home and decided to give it a whirl as well . Raif is getting to be quite the acrobat. Just the other day I had to tell him to stop swinging on the sprial staircase because batman was NOT going to mistake him for robin and ask him to join the "gang". Come to think of it maybe we should cut back his TV watching as well. Hmmmmmm
