15 Months

Jared takes him to the park almost every morning and he loves the big open space to just run around and be free after being cooped up in our tiny place

Current Vocabulary: (mind you most of this has taken us some time to figure out because it is in Brogen language) Da Da, Mama, outside, dog, tickle tickle, get you, downstairs, keys, chips, fishy, this, that. There are some pretty random words in there, his dad gave him a chip once (big mistake) and now if he sees anyone with chips he wants them and says chip so cute that we can't resist giving him one. If he doesn't call something by its actual name it is "this" So we hear "this" a lot!

Understands most everything we say to him. Time to eat, Time for Night Night, Do you want to go strolling, Go Outside, Where's Miley (Sara's dog) and when I tell him to go get a diaper so we can change his bum he runs and hides and it takes quite a bit of coaxing to get him

He has turned into quite the schmoozer at bedtime. As soon as I say "ok its time for night night" he pours on the charm. He knows how to manipulate his mommy like crazy and is extra cute and silly so that we will keep playing with him instead of putting him to bed. It usually works too, at least for a few minutes.

He loves to wrestle with daddy, as soon as he sees Jared on the floor its game on! He goes and pounces on his belly and Jared holds him in the air with his feet and tickles him with his toes all while I sit there holding my breath that he doesn't fall. I usually have to be a fun hater and make them stop before someone gets hurt



































He now blows kisses after he waves bye bye. I had been trying to teach him forever and he wouldn't do it and then one day he was waving bye bye to my dad and he blew him a kiss. Go figure! We have really discovered that we have a VERY stubborn boy and he likes to do things on his own time not when we want him to, and we know exactly who he inherited this from:)

He loves to look at the animals mounted on the wall downstairs at my parents house and when we name them off he will point to them, he gets them right most of the time. This prompted a trip to the animal museum here in town but he didn't quite know what to think of that, he was a little overwhelmed with so many animals

Loves to be sang too and has started to do some of the actions to the Wheels on the Bus. Itsy Bitsy Spider and 3 Little Monkeys are his favorites

He loves to empty out this cupboard and then get in there and sit for about 2 seconds and then he is on to make a mess somewhere else



















Loves to ride in the car because he knows that is the only place he gets to watch his Baby Einstein DVD's.

He loves dogs and whenever he sees a dog he points and says dog and gets so excited
