the magic of ordinary objects

You know, I was kind of nervous about this stage of babyhood/toddlerhood.  The crawling. the messes.  the walking. the messes.  the hazards all over the place.  and the messes.

But it has been beyond fun having Cole at this age.  Is he messy?  You betcha he is!  Does he get into E.VERY.THING? Of course.  But I simply ADORE watching his fascination and curiousity with everything he can (and sometimes can't!) get his hands on.

Cole will grab some random object (like a spoon) and turn it this way and that, examining it from every angle; chomp on it with his new teeth to test it's sturdiness; bang it around and drop it - he finds such magic and interest in everyday objects.

It sure makes me look at the world in a new way.  I'm not sure why anyone would ever buy toys for their little ones - they make toys out of just about anything they come into contact with!
