Peas

Sam has been sick and cranky for days with an ear infection. Then he was very, very quiet. Ten glorious minutes of silence passed. I could hear the swoosh of the washing machine. A bird chirped outside. The wall clock ticked loudly. I rushed to find him.

A few things to note about Sam's development:
a. Sam on tippy-toes can now reach the countertop. Who knew?
b. Sam loves peas. He can meticulously pick them out of other perfectly edible foods.
c. Sam does not feel so sick any more.
