Toren has, amazingly, accumulated so many toys (despite my best efforts) that we had to find a second toy box. We opted for this old filing box that I bought around 1998 for my files (yes, we’ve had it that long). While the box looks huge, it’s rather lightweight – the perfect size for Toren to carry.
I can imagine what he’s thinking, “I have my toys, I can go anywhere now!”
Ever since he started walking with help, Toren’s favorite game has been to chase me around our table:
Now that he walks on his own, he does this without any help.
Here’s some more footage of Toren showing off his moves with his alphabet train:
He was getting quite mobile at this point.
While Toren may not have made a mess with his birthday cake, a few days earlier he went after this cupcake with chocolate frosting:
Maybe it was the cake… 
This was when Toren was cruising a lot. He also realized that he liked some sweets, at least liked them enough to allow us to feed them to him:
Here he’s eating a light jello-cheesecake I made that included some blueberries I picked (with my neighbor).
