  Where to begin?? Michael is doing great and picking up lots of words. A lot of it is mimicry, so we have to be careful :-) He can ask for a few of his favourite books by name now: "La La" is "Moo, Baa, La La La;" "Mimi" is "Mimi's Toes;" He says something close to "Dino" for his Dinosaur book and something between "bappy" and "puppy" for his "Playful Puppy" book. He said "turtle" and then "whale" both out of the blue in the last couple of weeks. He's really keen on animals and loves to look at pictures of them.
  
  He's also started asking to sit and watch some special "Baby TV' programming (he points at the tv and says "Baby!") and has brought over his Baby Einstein dvds asking for them to be put on. He's finally starting to sit still for short periods of time with his toys or a show (only if it has babies or animals in it).
  
  In general he's getting lots better at letting us know what he needs or wants.
  
  He has three of his molars now. There may be a fourth, but he won't let us look.
  
  We took Michael to our first Jays game of the summer yesterday and he did much better than expected. He sat relatively quietly and seemed to enjoy the action.
