It's official, he's got it...

Actually, he has had it for a few months now….he has “the force.” You know, the uncanny ability to somehow get his hands on anything that he shouldn’t within an 8, no, 10 foot radius. Nope, the Big L still isn’t crawling…but he can still cause trouble just the same. A few nights ago, we went with a friend out for dinner. We laughed because there we were--3 adults with 1 baby but the baby had 40% of the table! When we got there, I cleared everything but his food from his reach. I got rid of anything potentially disasterous that he could touch--the utensil rollups, the menus, the daily special announcement thingy, our drinks….everything was swept out of his reach….or so I thought. Enter THE FORCE. He managed to get his hands on the daily special announcement thingy, on a utensil rollup, a fork, and a stack of 4 plates which almost went crashing to the floor (but, mommy saved the day on that one and grabbed the plates before they crashed. Am I bragging or telling you ask? HMMMM) It's almost as if he can just concentrate on the object and get it to come to him. Obviously, David Copperfield had better watch his back—he’s got quite a rival.
