| 5 May 2009: 17 Months It was bound to happen, and on April 21st it did. While checking out at IKEA, Em and I looked at each other and said "Where's PJ?". He was returned to us a few very long moments later by a women leading him by the hand from the exterior doors. Both of us marveled at how fast he was and then scolded ourselves for our poor parenting. Also this month, PJ has taken to cleaning the floors. He does this two ways. First, he pulls kitchen towels out of their box and wipes the floor under his high-chair, mimicking what Daddy does after each of his meals. He did this one time while we had guests, and I couldn't resist saying "You missed a spot". The other was he cleans the floor is by peeing on it during his naked time. Most of the time this is on the hardwood floors, which requires Mommy and Daddy to wipe it up, leaving it cleaner than before. On recent visit by Uncle Raymond, PJ cleaned the floor in three places within 5 minutes.
