This afternoon, for the first time, Aden really, really burst into action. We put him down on the floor so we could do something, and he started crawling. He was a little shaky at first, but then all of a sudden, he was zooming across the floor, from one end of the room to the other. But that's not all! He started pulling himself up into a full standing position with absolutely zero help from either one of us. Then, after standing for a bit, he'd disengage from whatever he had used to climb up, and settle gently down onto his butt... only to gleefully start the process all over again.
Now, I know that this may seem completely mundane to anyone else, but this is the kid who didn't want to be put down yesterday (or this morning, for that matter), and showed almost no interest in moving from one place to another without being air-lifted. So seeing him jet around on his own is pretty amazing.
Of course, this is also the kid whose favorite new teething toy is a tube of stuff called "Butt Paste" (really - that's what it says right on the package!), but that's just because geniuses are eccentric. Further proof of my theorem. Genius!

who gave him that haircut!
Oh, that haircut came from his daddy... did you have any doubts?
none whatsoever. hence no question mark.
That last pic is so very Eddie Munster, digging his fangs into the Butt Paste tube.
