One Hand, Two Hands Drumming on a Drum

I just love this picture of Rooney. I took this recently, in his new big boy bathtub, while he was playing his water drum. Of course right before I took the picture he was banging on the drum in a very impressive fashion. I think his Uncle Casey would be very proud. Once I got the camera out though, the drum was upside down & he was pretending he was on Iron Chef.

Everything is still progressing with "the move". We're really at the stage of just needing to hang stuff. This is always the longest stage, especially when someone does not want to hang stuff. Even though we are still in the throes Mike and I were able to slip away for dinner this weekend (thanks to Aunt Annie). Our dinner out was a belated V-Day dinner which left ample time for Annie and Rooney to cuddle.





I'm not sure she got all the cuddles she wanted out of the deal (boy, do I know how that feels) but she did work on her name with him and by the time she left she was pretty convinced he was trying to say it. I was pretty surprised because even though Rooney may be strugging to say her name, apparently he has no problem writing it (see picture).
