God is Good

I do not have pictures of them because he is insistent on keeping his bottom lip over them but Ivan does have two teeth coming through. The second one started breaking through about two days after the first one.

He has also started waving. It's not on command but now and then his hand will just rise up, like he's waiting to be called on in class and when we wave at him he'll flap it up and down...that's waving right?

His hair is getting longer and starting to stick up in the mornings when he wakes up. He looks pretty rough. His hair is sticking in all directions, red face, drool and sleepy in his eyes. He'll be in his crib screaming and when I walk in, he turns all that beauty toward me and smiles real big. The nasty just melts away.

We are trying to get him to say "Dada" since he makes the sound anyway. He will often repeat it back to us but until yesterday I never heard him come close to "Mama". Yesterday afternoon he was tired of being in his walker and started yelling "mamamamamamama!" So, we're close.
