In the last two days, Mitch has learned to totally pull himself up to stand and can go up a few stairs. Now, putting him down for naps or bedtime takes twice as long, as he pulls himself up on the bars of the crib and then gets stuck there (screaming bloody murder) until someone comes up and puts him back down. This happens several times at each bedtime. I feel so bad for him because sometimes he's really scared he's going to fall and will be holding on with both hands AND his mouth. Poor little guy. I'm hoping this resolves itself in the next few days as he learns how to get down from standing. Mitch also has pink eye again (2nd time) and so do I. We have basically had pink eye for the entire month of February despite me bleaching every surface/toy in the house, changing and washing every sheet/pillowcase in hot water, and dousing everyone in antibiotics. SO FRUSTRATING! Mitch is his usual happy self (maybe a little whiny) and still eating like a champ. In fact, this weekend, he's started with some more finger foods (veggie burger, bread, cheese today) and is loving every bite!
Drew took Finn skating at Halloran Ice Rink last night and Grandma, Mitch, and I got front row seats. It was so fun! The rink is adorable and a lot less crowded than the indoor rink at the rec center. Finn loved every minute, of course! We also had another snow day on Friday, which allowed for a fun afternoon of playing in the snow and some sled riding!

Mitch was not so sure about the sled...

Mitch very pleased with himself for pulling up to the coffee table
