Year and a Half

North turned a year and half on July 25th. Here are a list of things he does:
  1. Types on his laptop.
  2. If we accidently leave a DVD in the player, he has figured out how to get the TV and DVD player both going.
  3. Pushes the YES button on the ATM card reader at Fred Meyer check out.
  4. A few yoga moves.
  5. His idea of a joke: while walking around Fred Meyer, he walks behind men with shorts on, and slaps their calf, then runs off laughing. (He didn't get that from us or anything we watch)
  6. Growls when a computer is rebooting.
  7. Points at the moon, and often says something about it. I never pointed at the moon, he found it in the sky.
  8. Notices all planes, even ones too far away to hear their sound. He loves airliners the most.
  9. Loves the Fremont Rocket (see it here). He eagerly walks to it, raises his hand at it. Lately I tell him he can get on it and ride to the moon, he gets excited at the story.
  10. He likes one particular electric cable tower that is huge and along the ship canal. We walk to it and he really likes looking straight up it from underneath.
  11. Walking:
    • Walks between a quarter and a half mile, occasionally going a mile on the Burke-Gilman Trail.
    • Knows his way around the neighborhood.
    • Walks on the sidewalk with no wandering off course.
