18 months


I can't believe my baby boy is already 18 months old! He is growing up way too fast! He brings so much joy to our household! He is already quite the jokester. He loves for you to hide and scare him. He enjoys acting like he is handing you something only to jerk it back as you reach for it. His laugh is contagious!

His favorite things are:

* Lovie
* Climbing on the bar stools
* sippies which he calls "pissies" (we are working on this one)
* the vitamin bottle
* using a screw driver to "fix" things
* broccoli- He stands at the fridge crying for "boccoli"
* cookies which he calls coo-coo
* puppies
* the moon
* reading books. He constantly asking for "another book"
* baths
* being outside
* shoes
* keys
* feeding himself He will go to the silverware drawer, reach over his head and choose a spoon to eat his yogurt with each day.
* balls of any size He loves to toss the little bouncy ones in the house and chase them.
* his sisters- Kinley calls him bubby, which he now refers to himself as. This mortifies Madison because she knows he will not like this nickname in high school.


He is so smart! He knows all about what we are doing. I can give him three step directions and he can follow them closely. He already recognizes several colors and tells you what they are without being coached. What can I say, he is perfect! Just like my other two! And I am not biased! haha



For his "half birthday" we made a cake. Everyone got involved in the process. He loved it! We did not have the ingredients for icing the first night so we ate half the cake plain. Then the next night we ate the other half with icing and sang "Happy Birthday". I think that is the only proper way to celebrate a half birthday, don't you?

As you can see, he knew this was"his cake" and he enjoyed every minute of the process!








This is the good stuff!
