He just won't stop growing

Well Garrison has mastered the sitting thing, and was getting bored, so he wanted to try standing. I know, he's not even crawling yet, but he did really well standing for awhile. Granted, he is leaning against the couch, but non-the-less it looks impressive. Actually it looks really funny. Seeing this little itty-bitty boy acting so big.



He was so proud of himself. He knew he was doing something big.





The other day I was reading about how at this age a babies cerebral cortex, which is responsible for regulating emotion, is not fully developed. Garrison is no exception to this apparently, since right before this picture he was smiling and laughing. Poor guy, I think he's still cute when he cries, so I'm laughing at him while he's crying. Oh well.



A couple weeks ago he started doing his "scrunchie" face. We're not sure exactly what it means, because he does it when he's happy and when he's on the verge of fussy. This picture somewhat catches it. He scrunches up his nose and pushes out his lips and I think it's great.

Okay, when I saw the last picture I thought "Wow - that really looks like Ethan." Great photos - what a big/little man!
