Ma!

So... I left for a few hours to get a haircut today. While I was gone, BJ watched McKay. When I arrived home and walked in the door, BJ and McKay were there to greet me. BJ said, "Who's home?" In response, McKay squealed in delight, "Ma!" I'm serious! It was as plain as day. BJ and I just looked at each other and then at McKay and all three of us started giggling. McKay seemed SO proud, and BJ and I were shocked and delighted. Crawling and now talking? What's next? (Please don't say walking.)

La La Laundry Day

Now that this little man can crawl, he has taken to following me through the house as I clean. He tries to keep up with me but often gets to a room just as I am leaving it. This hide-and-go-seeking only works for so long before McKay tires of it and wants some cuddling. Today he reached the end of his rope midway through laundry collection, so, in a desperate attempt to keep him happy and get the last load in, I scooped him up and plopped him on top of all the dirty laundry. He rode from room to room king of the hill and happy as a clam.
