John--50 to 52 Weeks

John turned 50 weeks old on March 15. He is starting to walk more and is learning that he can walk faster than he can crawl.
Here are a few pictures from the week.

John turned 51 weeks old on March 22nd. Gigi and Papa were visiting us so he go to play with them and had lots of fun! We even got to celebrate Papa's birthday with him on the 20th.
On the 17th we took the boys to the doctor. Will was ok but JJ had an ear infection.

I found John in the tub one day. He had climbed in all by himself. I guess he thought it was time to take a bath! (3/17/10)

On March 29th, JJ turned 52 weeks old. On the 23rd, he said "gigi." He also put his hand over his mouth and tried to make a sound like Papa makes when he plays with the boys. On the 25th, John said "that Mum." He signed "more" to Papa without being prompted on the 25th, too.
I had to take John back to the doctor on the 26th. He had bronchitis and another ear infection. Thankfully, he recovered in time for his birthday.
