As amazed as we are by Wes’ many talents of sleeping, sneezing, and hiccupping, we’ve been trying to increase his resume fodder by helping him learn to grip things. He will grip our fingers pretty well, so much so that his little fingertips turn white, but we thought we’d take it to the next level:

with Link-A-Doos.

Doesn’t he kind of look like a Chinese monk in this picture?

Anyway, he’ll grip it for a second.

And then . . .

Well, we’ll keep working on it.

As long as he doesn’t get too tired.

Here’s a shot of him with his dad in the nursery.
