A few clips of Eli and Parenting at 22 months:

Language:  We’ve clearly entered the questioning phase of childhood development.  Eli’s vocabulary expansion is on cruise control and now he wants to know what everything is around him….

Swimming. His mom was a State champ and his dad has a freakishly long torso, so he has the genes to be a future Mark Spitz.  Yeah, he has the aid of a pretty ridiculous looking 1950s inner-tube jumpsuit, but look at this kid move.

Helping Out.  In addition to picking up our language, he’s mimicking much of what he sees us doing.  Which happens to be a lot of house work.

Just Eli.  Two random clips.  His first backwards walk, and a time in the grocery store when he heard his mom use the word “honey” for dad.
