Carter has a new favorite toy – his basketball goal. He is not really in to “playing” basketball yet. Just likes to bang on the hoop with his hands, grab at the basketball player trying to dunk, and eat those basketballs. The balls are just big enough for it to be a challenge for Carter to grab them and hold them. Today he was pretty focused on trying to get a ball in each hand. His left hand was good to go – ball in hand. But the other ball was resting just outside of Carter’s left leg. (this picture was taken later) He kept reaching across his body with his empty right hand for the ball, but he couldn’t quite get there. So, what does he do? He puts the ball that he has in his left hand into his right hand and then grabs the other ball with his left hand. Success. Once he had both balls he tried to eat them at the same time.

He looks like a busy littel fella. From day one seemed like he checked out things with some careful concentration. Looking forward to watching him in action soon.
