On the "up" side....

When asked what the kitty-cat says, Griffith now says "meow, meow." It is impossibly sweet.

Allan waves "bye-bye" and may or may not say it. He also has learned how to make his Dad get up off the couch. He was lying on top of Jay and playing with his ball when he dropped it and it fell to the floor. So Jay picked it up and got resituated on the couch. Allan played with it for a few minutes and then "dropped" it the second time. Jay picked it up and got back on the couch, settled back down. Allan "dropped" it again. And grinned. It is terrible to be out-witted by an 18-month old.
