First words

It was Patrick! He said “Ball” (what else could it be in this house!), but he also said “Doh, doh” (Joe joe) the same day. We weren’t sure if it was just babbling at first, but he said it pretty clearly and directed toward Joe himself. Yesterday, Patrick kept dropping stuff and saying, “Uh, oh!” The “uh” part is kind of a sucking in, like the start of a hiccup.

Luke is getting better at standing up by himself. He even stands up from squatting (without pulling up on anything) which Joe couldn’t do even after he had been walking for a while. Joe would have to crawl over to something stable and pull himself up before he could go on walking after he had fallen over. Patrick doesn’t really try to stand by himself yet. He will pull up on unstable things, like Luke.

We will have Thanksgiving pictures up soon. Sorry for the delay!
