Wheeeee!

One of Saul's favorite things is playing in the laundry basket. About six weeks ago I sat him on top of a few loads of clean laundry in our tall laundry basket and I rocked the basket back and forth saying "Wheeeee." He held on tight, laughed and then played with my fingers through the holes in the basket. Lots of laugher was involved. At some point, I stopped and talked with him for a moment and then he started signing "more" and saying, "eeeeee." He made himself clear and we went back to rocking the basket.

Now, these many weeks later, when he sees the basket and is interested in playing with it, he will stop, look at me and say, "eeeeee" while signing "more." Of course, "eeeee" is not to be confused with "eee-eee-eee" which is monkey. It's all about voice inflection.

Here are some pics of Saul playing in the laundry basket.

The beginning of laundry basket play time.

Definitely a full basket, considering how close to the top he's sitting.
Taking a moment for himself.

Let the fun continue.

Alright. All done. Saul's ready to get out now.
