Julius' favorite things include Diego, starchy foods, wheeled transportation, and nakedness. He combined 3 of his 4 loves yesterday when he wheeled his dump truck full of fried potatoes into Sylvia's room to watch Diego. He was, unfortunately, clothed.
In other news, we have a new Julius. The old Julius was sweet, shy, calm and compassionate. The new Julius is sweet, compassionate, and A TOTAL MADMAN. He can't sit still for an instant, and his speed is really shocking. He pushes his dump truck, from one end of the house to the other, so quickly that it's not enough to step out of the way. You have to take notice early and sometimes actually dive to avoid getting your toes broken. He's super-strong, and can grab a high surface, do a pull-up, and kind of rappel his way up a flat surface (for instance, a counter and cabinets).
It's marvelous how full of life he is, especially when I think back about his birth. I'm so blessed that our poor, distressed baby turned into this rambunctious, glowing, vigorous little dynamo. And you should see his smile!
