Applause

Stanley loves applause.  We clap for him and cheer him on whenever he does something good, like going down the stairs and not killing himself.  The other night at Lolo and Papa Doug's we had a whole bunch of guests over for dinner and Stanley was very busy training all the adults how to give him applause.  He was quite pleased with himself and it got to the point where he could just pick up a ball, put it down and look up and they would give him applause.  It felt a little bit like those TV show filming sessions where they have the "APPLAUSE" sign that lights up when the audience is supposed to clap.  Only here, Stanley was his own light board.
