Nanna came and Nathan showed off by managing twelve steps.

We brought down some toys that had been bought for the lad last christmas, but were too old for him. He immediately grasped the musical keyboard, the number computer, and the blocks. It shows the intellectual change in the lad over the last few months.

In the last few days we've started asking Nathan to smile for the camera. He always does so, and with such spontaneity that he sometimes laughs as well. Then he rushes forward to see the picture appear on the back of the camera.

Today was a friend's third birthday and the lad was invited to the party. It was a small and jolly affair and Nathan really enjoyed being with the other children, clowning around, putting napkins on his head and suchlike.

Nathan's up to SEVEN steps now! He also had a great time at Thursday toddler group.

We're in the local paper. It's a very nice piece.

Some more examples of five word sentences "Get it out, the car", and "Where's it gone, the baby?"

Nathan enjoyed music group today and one of his friends came home with us to play for a while. It was great fun.

We've found a way to get the lad to wear a hat. Give him one of daddy's to wear and he'll don it and keep it on quite happily.
