The Car!

Joey is really just content to sit and play with anything in his reach. I need to be careful not to ignore him too much. One of his favorite things to play with is magazines. I just get worried that it will dissolve in his mouth or give him a papercut. While we were playing in the rec room today and Joey was just playing with little toys around him, I remembered the car we got for MJ. He was about 11 months old then and could already walk, so when he got it, he mostly sat on it and pushed it like a ride-on toy. But it is designed so babies who can sit up can play with it. I "transformed" it to it's sitting function and voila, Joey had a super fun toy to play with.
...Beep... Beep...


This is his casual driving position.
MJ eventually realized Joey was playing with his car. So he came over and tried to climb on it. I hear sharing is a lesson that gets harder when the second gets older, but I have a feeling I'll be saying it about 100 times a day, so smarty-pants MJ should pick that up pretty quickly. I liked this picture where MJ was sorting the shapes in the front on the car and Joey was playing in the back. I can't quite tell if this is a happy "oh we are playing together" look or a "hey, you're playing with my toy" look.
