A Real Page Turner

 We have ourselves a reader! Thanks to generous relatives and friends, Emerson has quite a library already, and reading is one of his favorite pastimes. Well, "reading." His toy bin always has a supply of board books in it, and he loves to crawl over to the bin, select a book, flip through it, and then discard it and grab a new one. He's also in charge of turning the pages at bedtime.

Today we went to Lakeside Nature Center with the Cub Scouts. Emerson got to crawl on a cliff.

 Then Brandon posed with the scouts. (I took the picture but didn't realize until afterward that he had handed the baby over to one of the boys. Yikes!)

 And Mommy posed with her little man!

Here's a video of Emerson showing off his latest skills. (There are a couple of weird camera effects partway through the video. Not sure where those came from--apparently our camera has a mind of its own.)
