Here is a picture of Mark with Cooper and Everett. This was taken while we were in Colorado. It was great to get the boys together.

Mark is now 16 months old. Temper tantrums are present at times. Mark wants to do everything and when Mommy or Daddy stop him from achieving his goal, he lets us know his displeasure.

Mark is quite the explorer. We have a refrigerator lock, an oven lock, covers over the knobs for the stove, and cabinet locks. It is quite an adventure getting dinner ready. Mark has also figured out how to turn on the dishwasher. We have passwords on our computer since Mark has found out how the computer works. He is quite smart and looks at the screen when he pushes on the keys or moves the mouse. I think Mark has inherited some computer programming genes.

Mark is in the toddler class at the church two days a week. This gives Mark some interaction with other children and Mommy a chance to get some things done. Mark is adjusting, there are still tearful good-byes in the morning, but he is playing more and really enjoys the buggy ride and play room.
