Sometimes when I take a moment to take a step back and really watch Reed I realize what a Big Boy he is becoming. I snapped a few pictures to document a few of his newest "tricks."

Yesterday afternoon Heidi and Drake came by for a play date and we had so much fun. The age difference is disappearing so rapidly and the two boys were so sweet together. Drake is taking steps but not full-fledged walking yet so he thought it was awesome that he could hold onto Reed's back and get some assistance. The first time it happened the boys figured it out on their own, we tried to help recreate it for the camera but were never quite as successful. Reed was a great sport and would turn his back to Drake so we could place his hands on Reed's shoulders, it really was endearing.
Something else that Reed's been great about lately is taking things to other people when I ask. If I give him something for "Dad" or "Grandma" or "Miss Mariel" (his gym teacher) he happily shuttles the item to the person and has no qualms about giving it up, even if it's something like a beloved ball. I made a set of quilted letters for Drake (he turns the big 0-1 next week) and Reed nicely took the gift over to Heidi and Drake and patiently watched as she opened it.
Heidi and I both agreed future play dates are only going to get more fun!!!
