I'm so bad!

Sorry it's been so long - no excuses! Wills is totally full of himself these days...in to absolutely everything, especially if tim or I say "no!". He loves to dance and sing along with his music in the car (especially row-row-row your boat). He is gabbering all the time - some of his newest words are: nose, eyes, knees, truck, car, vroom-vroom, beep-beep, choo-choo, cheese, golf ball, basket-ball, oh-no, daddy...

He is taking swimming lessons and really seems to like the pool, especially splashing (as long as he is the one making the splashes), jumping in, and blowing bubbles.

He ate meat for the first time, willingly, on his own, the other day - a piece of bacon, of all things. He also loves cheese, goldfish, cheerios, froot loops, craisins, peanut butter and jelly, bananas, and pears. He also loves to dip things (which you'll see in the video). He loves playing with his friend Andrew across the street - anytime they are out in the cul-de-sac, Wills wants to go out there and play too. They play with balls and run around.

And finally, the biggest news of all...Wills is going to sleep on his own! This is officially the best thing ever...it took about 10 days of "crying it out", but by day 2 he was really only crying for 10 minutes at most. Now we read a book, give a hug, say goodnight, and lay him down in the crib. He hugs is lion blanket and looks up at us so sweet...and we leave the room! Why didn't we do this sooner????

Here are some pictures from the past few weeks, and a video!
