Baby Jail...

Once a week or so, Carlos brings Josh & Sam up to Everett, and they go to the Children's Museum while I'm at work. We get to have lunch together, which makes feeding Sam much easier, and in general it makes those days a lot cozier. It does, however, have some unexpected side effects:

Today we were talking about Sam learning to crawl, and how we'll have to start moving things up high so he can't reach them, etc. Carlos mentioned keeping him away from the litter box, when Josh suddenly announced that we needed a jail for Sam. Apparently I have been a little too forthcoming in my explanation of where I go after lunch. Josh spent the next hour or so "playing jail", which started out with the hypothetical offense of playing in the litter box, and ended with Sam being sent to jail forever for running someone over with a car?! As always, these ideas make Josh laugh uproariously...

On the plus side, Sam indicated his willingness to participate in this future life of crime by taking his first "step" of crawling. He only moved a few inches, but he's definitely gearing up!
