19 Months

I was getting ready to do an Around Here Post & I realized it was my baby's 19 month birthday!!! It's been a craaaazy work weekend, but here we go with some random thoughts!!.
Here you are in time out for throwing toys!!!! Gorgeous & Naughty!!!!

You have been giving lots of unsolicited "I wuv u mamas (insert daddy, or everyone else you know:) It's heaven!!! Officially obsessed with Barney's I love You song!!! You can also be heard singing Old McDonald, Row Row Row Your Boat & Twinkle Twinkle (don't forget Shake it for me!!!)

Can finally correctly answer, "what color is........?  Mama was convinced you were color blind for a while!!!!  Also still loving to identify shapes and playing with your shape sorting toys & puzzles.

This month you've said goodbye to most 12 month clothes and are pushing from 18 to 24 month clothes!!!!!

Today you had a play date & said your longest sentence to date. " I show Gaggy heli-hocker?"  Translation: I want to show Gavin the helicopters in the sky!! You also requested to show him your favorite shape, octagon!!!!! Here you are with Pop Pop playing airplanes!!!!

We've added some new books to our favs list. All the Eric Carle books, Chicka Chicka Boom Boom, Hello Bee, Officer Buckle & Gloria (about a policeman & his dog:) Pictured: Reading Officer Buckle to Daddy.

Your still pretty excited about brother & Gma Tachee has you referring to him as baby brother Guillaume.....eek

You discovered condiments & now request dip at pretty much every meal. Usually ketchup or bbq sauce. You are using a spoon/spork fairly proficiently.

You do this weird squinty thing with your eye & trip like 100 xs a day. I'm paranoid & taking you to see a pediatric opthamologist bc your family history is pretty much guaranteeing your going to be blind in at least one eye. Sorry about that!

Seeming very interested in the potty. You like to sit on your lil kiddie seat at our house & Nana's. If I wasn't so lazy I could probably potty train you pretty quickly!!! You also like crayons, although you haven't used them a ton. This picture is technically your 1st drawing ever:)

You still take a binky at naptime & bedtime but i
am feeling pressure to take it away. This week we stopped offering it to you for car rides & it has been hellacious.  I'm dreading taking it away at bedtime. You may still need binky when your 30 based on this weeks little experiment!!!

You spent your first full weekend just you & Daddy while mama went to Detroit for work. You both had a blast!!!! Daddy took you to get new shoes at Stride Rite. You were wearing 4.5 & when they measured your feet you were a 5.5. ooopppppsie!!! Daddy took the last pic of you running at Blendon Woods!!!
