Lori I have been thinking the same thing - some days I'm so focused on getting things done that I haven't really sat & played with DS for a solid amount of time - more chatting while I'm doing stuff, or giving him toys etc as I walk past. My DS is about the same age as yours. I think it's harder at this age, because they can't follow you around, or get "in your face" when they want attention! I do try to spend at least one "session" during the day where we just hang out & play together (with toys, books, or just lying on the rug outside while he rolls around ).
