silliness

getting owen dressed has always been a challenge, he's super squirmy and so easily distracted. i've been working on less mommy-help but sometimes my patience gets the best of me. this morning we were in our jammies way too late (how i'll miss these long loungy mornings together!) and trying without much success to get owen to take his pajama shirt off. he could see i was getting frustrated and gigled "should i take my arm off?" so then i had to crack up. and he continued on with the play--"should i take my legs off?" when it was time to do pants (and i won't say what he suggested when it was time for pullups off!). but i love this about him--he has such a curiosity and engagement with new ideas and isn't afraid to try new things. i'm not sure the cognitive phenomena here but i think it's pretty big--like rhyming and word play.

and, yesterday he ate a tomato!
