Moving and Shaking (No burritos were shaken in the making of this post.)

Over the last week or so, Asher has developed several skills that have made him more able to get what he wants:
Leg pulling
Standing  (I actually found him like this when I went in to pick him up from his afternoon nap today.  Maybe I should make him take his naps in the Pack N' Play where there's nothing to grab onto...)
Climbing (Look at that devious little grin.)
And, most importantly, helping with household chores, such as laundry (So far he can only match socks, but hey, that's all I can get Hugh to willingly do and he's 26.)
Here are a variety of Asher's triumphs in action, including learning to take a fall.
And, just for fun, here he is in his Thanksgiving clothes... complete with matching SmartWool socks from Grandma Sue.

He's become a perpetual motion machine! Or does somebody wind him up when the camera is off? Do you think he'll hang upside down from the ballet bar by nine months?
