A New.....Skill?

Grant is finally picking up the whole "feeding myself" thing. We actually haven't been encouraging this development much because we didn't want to clean up after he'd thrown food all over the kitchen. So we're probably bad parents for not letting him progress. Oh well. Anyway, here's Grant eating beans with a little help from mummy. And here he is eating yogurt all by himself. Notice his technique needs a little work? He's still exploring the best way to do this. Oh, and he learned to do the sign for please without us demonstrating first. Now he does it whenever he wants us to do something - give him another cookie, sing another song, you name it.
Jared and Grant have been playing hide and seek for a while now. Grant loves to get scared by us, whether it's coming around the corner and not knowing we're there, or finding us under a blanket or covers on the bed.
His favorite part is when we jump out and say "Here I am!!!" He always laughs hysterically and then runs away.
