Cruisin'

Trevor has been crusin' around. He wants to walk and talk, but isn't quite there yet. He knows he doesn't want to be held - he has to walk. We've gotten him to hold on to only one hand and are slowly trying to get him to use the walls, tables, and other things nearby for help. I'm sure we'll look back and wish we didn't encourage him to be off on his own, but now it seems like a good idea.

His talking is fun to listen to. He's throwing together a lot of consonant blends that sound really interesting. Occasionally it sounds like he's mimicking what we say, but it's hard to say.

The ideal "never cries" baby is paying us back with an increasing amount of whining lately. I'm sure it's the frustration of knowing what he wants, but not knowing how to tell us. The signs for milk, eat, and more have really helped though.
