On Monday, October 18th, Janice and I made a one-day visit to Seattle to see Yuri and everybody else interested in seeing Yuri. He has two teeth which are just visible when he smiles, which is often. Turning over is no problem, nor is scooting if he has something he can use for pushing off with his legs. He likes to be held looking outward rather than over a shoulder, which suggests a real interest in observing the action. Alyssa was at work all day and Bill had an appointment so Paul, Kay and we got him to ourselves for a bit. With all the activity, getting him to take a nap was out of the question.
I like this shot because it shows both Janice and Yuri are responding to the same person in the same way, even if he does not understand what is being said. You cannot train a child to respond like this!
Quite of bit of time centers on food, partly because he is growing so well.

I really, really love the picture of Janice & Yuri and their big smiles! Love, Judy Davis, Indiana
Thanks for the photos, Evan. Each picture is a picture with happiness in it.
In looking at the blog entry again, I noticed the label for the last picture, "Yuri singing". It reminded me, along with his happy expressions in all the pictures, of how much Yuri relished being part of the family gathering that occurred that day. It really felt like he was delightedly joining our conversations in various ways!
