Joe at 14 months

A couple of weekends ago Issy and I travelled to Bristol to see the family (and, in my case, to visit the annual HiFi show).  We hadn't seen Joe since New Year, and he's grown up enormously.  Not only is he now walking everywhere, but he's jabbering away the whole time.  No words as yet, but it's only a matter of time. 

Interestingly (and, perhaps, unsurprisingly) the "face recognition" feature on my camera didn't work when Issy decided to hold Joey upside down!

Joe knows that telephones have buttons and are carried in the hand.  Using impeccable reverse logic, he believes that anything which has buttons and can be carried must, therefore, be a telephone.  Here he is chattering happily into a remote control unit...

With his big eyes and blond curly hair, he's a real heart-breaker.  What a sweetie, and we can't wait to see him again at Easter.
