Little Builder

Our little Sorin got some good old fashion blocks for Christmas from his Aunt Megan. She made them herself! (with a little help from her handy boyfriend, Jeff). Sorin has turned out to be quite the little builder, if I don't say so myself (mothers, I have heard, are a little bias when it comes to their children). But really, once he got over the thrill of knocking down the towers we made

and figured out that he could, in fact, build one himself he has

gotten better and better.

He is very systematic about it - setting blocks squarely on top of one another and keeping his hands there to make sure they are stable. Brilliant! Ok, now I'm getting a little carried away. Here is a tower he made today. And then, of course, I took a video of him figuring out the process.

Those round blocks sure are tricky....
