Correction

Preston was quick to point out that I understated his vocabulary skills 2 posts ago...in fact it consists of 4 words, I forgot about "ba," (ball) which he has been fluent with for many months.
Also, "mum" is becoming code for just about everything. "I want that," or "I want more," or "Can I touch that?" or "Read this," or "Milk!" He tried grabbing the toilet brush last night while sitting on the potty, and when I told him no, its dirty, for the 1st time ever he tried mimicking what I was saying. The best he got was something like "durgh," but he was incredibly focused on watching my lips and trying to copy what I was doing with them. It was actually pretty awesome.
Later, he tried helping me with the laundry:

This is what you get when a 1-year-old tries helping you fold laundry.

Here he is last week, checking out Agnes' Easter Wonderland. (Agnes is our wonderful neighbor across the street who absolutely adores Preston, and I'm pretty sure she went to the trouble of putting out the display this year just for him.)

Preston really isn't very fond of grass yet, so he mostly just teetered in this one area, and then sat down and insisted on being picked up. I chose not to do an Easter egg hunt this year as I figured he was a little too young to know what he was missing.* Plus, Easter Sunday, Matt had to work all day (and by all day I mean he was gone before the P-man and I even woke up, and didn't get home til 6ish). So basically I would have been the one to orchestrate it, and the only one to get any enjoyment out of it. And what do you stick in a 1-year-old's eggs anyway? Animal crackers?? So, there are no cute Easter egg hunt pictures to be had. Sorry.

*In hindsight, I wish I had done it. Preston, if you ever decide to read this when you're older, know that I felt like a shitty mom for not putting on an Easter egg hunt when you were 1 year old....

Tomorrow: haircut results.
