Dennis learned to name more of his trains today. If you ask him a name, he can point to whichever one you name. But now he can say many of the names. He can say Percy, Thomas, James, Bill, Truck (for the Troublesome Truck), and Culdee. He hasn't tried to say Emily or Dennis yet--maybe tomorrow.
Tonight Allison was playing pool and Dennis was lining up farm animals on the side of the pool table. She called him a silly goose, and he went and got his goose and brought it to her and said "goose". Very funny. He used our legs as 'slides' for the farm animals, sliding them down from our knees to our feet as we sat on the couch and saying "wheeeee" as they slid. We wrestled some and he let me know that he's learned how to unzip--he unzipped my blouse all the way down in one quick motion and then laughed proudly at himself and at my shocked expression. He sat on the dog a few times (and she just let him do it) and climbed the chairs and couches. And this morning he opened the bathroom door and surprised me in the shower. All of a sudden, the door slid open and he said "Hi!". He really startled me, but we both had a good laugh about it.
He was just full of personality today, with lots of laughs and smiles and running full speed through the house. He napped hard and he's sleeping hard tonight (albeit perpendicular to the length of the crib and with one foot in the air propped against the crib rail). Though it rained all day, we had a wonderful time playing indoors.
