14th Month

Neli is like a parrot, he just keeps learning words and using them. He surely suprises us with his vocabulary. He has pretty much doubled his list of words since we wrote down a list 12 days ago.

One of his favorite things to do is slide head first down the slide. Then he turns around and tries to climb back up the slide "Up, Up", and with a little help he is back down again. -JF

First Steps (with help)

Just out of the blue Neli wanted to take some steps (at 13 months) The weird thing is he took about a month off before he showed any interest again in taking steps.
