Kevin is making lot of progress right now in his development. I wanted to mention some things before I forget!
He's saying more new words over the past few days: "Empty" (referring to his juice cup), "Night-night" (saying goodnight to everyone before bed), and "Hiding!" (he has a new game where he closes himself in the closets, and I ask, "Where is Kevin hiding?").
I've also gotten him to stand up and walk with his walking toys. He's still pretty hesitant about it, but seems to enjoy it once he gets going.
He is also pulling himself up to standing well now, and frequently cruises the furniture. He loves climbing stairs, especially at Gram and Papa's house.
He is also starting to nod his head "yes" to things that he wants or agrees with, which is new, and point to things that interest him. He likes to point to objects and have me tell him what the word is for them. His comprehension seems much stronger, as well; when I ask him to do things like "Go get the ball, and bring it to Mommy," he responds appropriately. He is also doing a lot more independent babbling this week, like he's trying to tell me things. I can't understand it, but it's great to see these sudden leaps in those pre-language skills he's been working on. :))

That's it for now. It might be awhile before I get a chance to post about our Easter. It was busy and fun, so I have lots to say about it, but not much time to do long posts this week!

That's so great Julie! It's something about this age that all of a sudden they are doing so many new things at once. I totally remember it with Maeve but I thought it was because I had a brand new baby. Just recently though Matt and I both commented how much more Finn is talking/doing, etc. Oh and how devilish he's become. Can't wait to hear more. Thanks for sharing!!
Wonderful update! I think Kevin is ready to announce..."Look out world, here I come!"
We are really enjoying the blog, and looking forward to Easter stories :))
