drive naked


Dennis was reunited with his beloved car ("cahw") today for the first time since we've been back, and he was in it for a good part of the afternoon. He was so cute today, walking all over the place and talking constantly.

This morning, he developed a fascination with the broom. He kept grabbing it even though it's twice as tall as he is, and he even made some sweeping motions with it. He calls it a "bwooo". He walked all over the house with it, with me following close behind to make sure he didn't injure himself.

Tonight when we were getting him ready for bed, he insisted on driving his car around a few more times, and he even escaped during his diaper change and made a break for the car. I caught him driving naked, which he thought was hilarious.
He was happy to be at the lake house today, exploring all his favorite areas and trying the cabinets to see if maybe the childproofing had failed while we were on vacation. It hadn't. He did overcome one childproofing measure today, though. We called him and he came walking down the hall to us while holding our brand new toilet lock in his hand. He had apparently ripped it free of the toilet once he discovered that it prevented him from opening the lid and splashing in the water. I guess we're just going to have to keep the bathroom door closed!
