As mentioned before, Joey LOVES shoes. He particularly loves Melanie's pink sandals, and takes any opportunity to wear them. The other day, I asked him to go put on his shoes, and he went into the laundry room where all the shoes are kept, and came out with the pink sandals on, acting like it was perfectly normal.
This weekend, Jeff and Joey were getting ready to go to Costco, when Jeff asked Joey to go in and kiss his sister and mom bye-bye. Joey walked from the laundry room into the living room, kissed Mel, and went back out. Jeff was delayed, so Joey repeated this scenario about three times before it was time to go. It was adorable.
Sunday evening, as we drove to Lebanon, Joey was very hyper most of the way. Predictably, as we got closer, his eyes got heavier and heavier. I turned around at one point and asked him if he was going to sleep. He waved bye-bye and fell asleep. The kid has plenty of ways of communicating without words :)
Other Joey tidbits - he's saying & signing "more" when he wants to eat. He continues his champion sleeping behavior, going to bed with his binky bear and cup of milk anytime between 7 and 8; he goes straight to his crib and doesn't fuss about it. He's wearing 12 month pants and 18 month shirts. He plays shy, but is more outgoing and adaptable than Melanie. He loves to laugh, scoot up to sit on our lap, give kisses (isn't a cuddler), doesn't like to swing, loves bathtime, doesn't get interested in TV, and loves his big sister, despite her torment of him.
