Acquiring new skills -13.5 months old

Richie is walking holding onto furniture. He cruises everywhere and specially checks out things on the dining table. When it is time for dinner (he senses it somehow), he comes near his high chair and indicates that he wants to sit on it. When we tell him, go and get your cushion, he crawls and gets the cushion with dada's help.

Recently he has acquired a new skill. His dada taught him to get down from the bed. He started getting down from the bed all by himself, after a little practice. Climbing was a little difficult, but he mastered it fast.

When we tell him "it is bedtime Richie" and try switching off the lights, he leaves his toys behind and comes running (rather crawling thud,thud thud) and sleeps on his pillow.
