look ma! no hands!

uh oh. report from day care today: quentin is standing on his own. not for very long and not steadily (as the bruises on his knees suggest) but he's doing it! his other scary new skill: the jumperoo-less jumperoo. he holds on to the railing of his crib and jumps like crazy. he's thinks it's terrific. and today he waved bye-bye for the first time. we've been really trying to get him to do it for a while now. we make a big production of it when i leave him at day care. linda usually waves his little arm for him but today he did it on his own. he's also babbling up a storm, making all kinds of silly noises, with raspberries being his absolute favorite noise to make! such a big little baby!
