Patrick's New Skills

I don't have any new pictures right now, but I thought I would update everyone on Patrick's new skills. He has developed quite a few in the last month or so.

• Patrick crawls everywhere now. He uses his knees, and he can now reach top speed.
  
• He can pull up to almost everything. It isn't terribly graceful yet, but it works.
• He is NOT afraid of falling. If he drops something, he just plops down on his bum.
• He can climb up the stairs, especially if he is motivated because he hears someone up there. Someone still needs to stand behind him though. Not interested in going down yet.
• Patrick can crawl under the bar stools to get something, but he doesn't know how to get out yet.
• He blows the BEST raspberries. He can go forever and cover his shirt with drool in no time.
• He loves the diaper wipe container. He pushes the tab, pulls a wipe out, and tries to eat it. He discovers that is tastes yucky, throws it away, and tries another one, etc.
  
• He can open Grandma's cupboards, although he isn't too bad about pulling stuff out yet. He mostly like to open and close.
• Patrick is so proficient at splashing in the bathtub that he can get water all the way to the door. Bath time in now a two-person job so someone can hold he legs while the other washes. While splashing, Patrick laughs like splashing is the funniest thing ever invented.
• He can also climb in to the tub. On accident. With his clothes on.
• He says "da-da," but mommy is "bob bob," or anything else he can say.
• Patrick can stand very well in his crib and it is very difficult to go downstairs and lay him down again when he is so cute laughing and smiling at you.
• He is very charming.
