It appears that I am over my "Bye Bye Atticus" stage. For a little while there, I kept telling my mom and dad to just put Atticus in the swing. Then, they would play with just me, but now I love to climb up on my stool and look at Atticus in the crib. When I wake up from my nap, the first thing I want to do is run into Atticus room and make sure he is still there. Then I wave at him, and say, "Hi Attigatigatigaticus." (Yes, that is how he says it.)

I even ask to hold him.

Here, I am pointing out his body parts...such as his ear.

Now, I'm trying to reach his feet to tickle him. (poor Atticus)
