18 Months!

Tyler turned 18 months in August! Ahh, I still can't believe it.

Where has my baby gone???

* Words he can say: Mama, Dada, BB, more, please, thank you, amen, where, what is that, nana, night night, dog, horse, cow, shoes, airplane, over there, baby, book, hi, bye bye, uh oh, apple, all done, I see you...he's talking up a storm these days!

* Animals sounds: He knows most of the farm animals and roars for all dinosaurs and animals with big teeth (alligators, lions...). His favorites are still dogs and horses and he gets SO excited when he sees them.

Excited to see a dog nearby

* Favorite foods: Bananas, pancakes, gogurts, pizza, anything sweet, cheese, hot dogs, mac and cheese, scrambled eggs, and he loves ice (if you consider that a food).

* He's Brayden's little shadow and tries to do everything that he does. Where Brayden goes, Ty goes! And that means he wants exactly what BB is playing with at any given time so the fighting between the two has begun...gotta love it. But on the other hand, the two are best buds and will play together for hours. I'm so glad they have each other!!!

* Loves to do funny things on purpose to make us laugh like plug his nose and talk or spin in circles until he gets really dizzy and falls over. He's a big goofball!

* Will color on his legs with a marker or pen anytime he finds one. He knows he's not supposed to, so he will hide under tables or in a corner now to do it when he has the chance. Why do my kids love to do this so much??

* Loves to play outside and will get his shoes and stand by the door ready to go as soon as he wakes up!

* Still sleeps with a binkie and a blanky but the binkie is on its way out soon. Gonna be rough!

* Loves to read books and will sit in his room quietly looking at them for a long time.

* Favorite games: Ready, set, GO (races Brayden), peek-a-boo, ring around the rosy, pat-a-cake, 1-2-3 jump, tickle monster.

* Will bring me a diaper when he's stinky and I tell him to get one, but then he'll run away as fast as he can as soon as he's given it to me. Still hates getting that diaper changed!

* He can be so fiesty/stubborn when things don't go his way and can throw a pretty mean tantrum(his screams are painful), but he is also my cuddly boy and gives me the best loves and kisses. Loves to sit in our laps and let us rub his back or play with his hair when he's tired.

* He just started holding his finger up to his mouth and whispering "shhh." He's quiet when he wants to be and thats about it :)

Crazy nap hair :)

I could go on forever because he's at such a fun stage right now! We sure love this boy and love watching him learn and grow every day and discover more of this world. He makes life fun and I LOVE being his mommy!!!
