Great Friday

Today is a great day as mommy learned that Joshua has already picked up a few new skills.

1. Clapping hands when grandma says "好野"
2. Drinking with plastic tube (straw)
3. Climbing stairs

Mommy and Auntie Neslie took the boys to the open gym at Gymboree. It was Josh's first time to the open gym. He was a bit nervous and overwhelmed in the beginning. He looked around curiously and did not know what to do. After seeing cousin Anson, he was more relaxed and started to move around. When being placed at the 3-step staircase by Auntie Neslie, mommy was surprised to see Josh climbing up in seconds!! He has never encounted a staircase. How did he learn?? It was also amazing to see him sucking up water from a cup with soft plastic tube. Grandma only gave the cup to him earlier today and he was drinking like a pro.

Raising a baby gives one a lot of surprise! The way baby learns is just fascinating. Perhaps the little brain is running 24/7!
