Things Rex Learned This Week

One of my favorite things about the stage Rex is in is that he is learning so much everyday. Here are a few things he learned this week.
1) Chalk doesn't taste good. I gave him the chalk so he'd sit still for a picture. His mouth was coated by the end and I never got a great shot.
2) Watermelon does taste good. Rex is in love with watermelon. He even likes playing with it before I cut it. He rolls it and walks along.
3) Swimming pools are fun. He likes playing in his little pool, but he doesn't realize he has to have on a swimsuit to do that. He tries to get in the pool whenever he sees it.
4) Cotton candy is amazing stuff. Since we had lots of leftovers, Rex finds a bag of it and then brings it to me so I can open it for him. I am rationing him, though.
5) Walking in flip flops is a lot harder. I usually let Rex go barefoot, but when I strap shoes on he gets a bit more tipsy. I love to see his little feet in them, though.
Things I'm hoping Rex will learn soon:
1) How to change his own diaper
2) Screaming isn't the way to get what you want.
3) How to prepare a meal
4) How to give a back massage
5) Mommy is always right :)

Those are great pictures! You are really getting the hang of this photography thing. I wish I could reach through the screen and give him a hug. He looks so cute!

I love the new look. I also love the lists and all that your hope Rex will learn soon. Remeber when you were thrilled that he smiled? Now I think I can tell you from experience that by the time Rex could change his own diaper that he should be going on the potty anyways. I love seeing all his sweet experiences in pictures.
