What is Marshall doing these days??

Marshall is growing up so fast and I wanted to share some of the things he is doing these days:

-He has noticed airplanes and points them out when we are outside.  An airplane probably flies over my house every 5-10 minutes so we see our fare share.  Three helicopters flew by last week, a huge jumbo jet flew by really low yesterday and a propeller plane pulling a banner flew by today, so there is always something new to see.  This picture is of him watching a plane in our front yard.

-When Marshall eats a snack I hand him the food and he puts it on the floor then eats it, so wierd!! We were at the splash pad last week and he kept putting his goldfish on the ground and of course thought it was funny when I tried to stop him.

-For those of you who do not know this, Skippy barks when Marshall cries and now when he makes loud noises.  Marshall has learned to chase Skippy yelling to get him to bark.  It sounds funny and cute but it's really a huge pain and it drives us all CRAZY.  I have been meaning to get a video of this so I will definitely post it when I do.

-Marshall has found two bungie cords in the garage and loves to play with them outside.  He carries them around one in each hand and if he drops one he HAS to go back and pick it up so he has both.

-Marshall has started picking up two balls at a time in one hand.  He doesn't seem to think anything of it but I think it's pretty cool.

-Marshall has started turning around in circles.  I have no idea where he learned this from but it is definitely fun to watch him get dizzy and fall down.

-Marshall has learned if he runs full force at me I, of course, will catch him.  When I put him down he walks backwards and runs at me again.  Now he has started running back and forth to Grammy and me and totally wearing himself out.

-Marshall is learning new stuff all the time and slowly but surely it is starting to show.  It's funny how I have been working on "The cow says MOO" for the longest time and he still hasn't gotten it, but when I tell him a "kitty cat says meow" he gets it in a day.  He makes noises for a lion and a fish and I'm pretty sure he said tweet tweet tonight.  Marshall knows him head, mouth, toes, hands, and he knew his nose and ear but he forgot them and points to his head when you ask him those.

Hope everyone has a great week!!!
