This Summer, Mitchell was the Incredible Napless Child. I guess he was just too busy figuring out stuff. For example, after showing no interest in crawling, in the middle of June he finally figured out a funny one leg, one arm scoot (he looks rather Gorilla-like, actually), and now he's so fast at it that he won't walk (even though he's taken several steps many times). With a little coaching, Mitchell has also mastered crawling up and down the stairs. He still makes me a little nervous, but he's done really well. I think he's only tumbled once (down the last 3 stairs at my Parents' house). Mitchell is quite vocal and loves to shout (where do you think he learned that?). He's big on dancing (wiggling, or crawling in a circle)and music and has even tried leading the singing at church along with the chorister. Kerali gave Mitchell his first haircut in July and he's already sorely in need of another. The development that I'm most pleased with is that the last couple of weeks, as our schedule has calmed down, Mitchell has been sleeping better. He's still not a reliable napper, but has had a few days of really good naps, and now only wakes usually once a night. Thank goodness.
