18 months

Joe!

You're a year and a half.  This is crazy.

This month your little quirks have started emerging and it's so fun to see.  Your robot sheets are your favorite (who knew an 18 month old could have a fav pair of sheets!), you love walking on the street instead of the sidewalk, you insist on wearing your navy puffy coat or bear sweater regardless of how warm it is outside, you get annoyed SO easily (whomever do you get that from?!) and most recently, you've become SUPER attached to me.  This isn't so much a quirk as an age thing, but it sure makes carving out me-time difficult  (sigh.)

Here are some new news this month!

• You can reach your light switch from your crib and love flipping it on and off when you wake up in the morning (party time!)
• You yell at other kids on the playground.  I believe you think it's yours since half the time there are no other kids there when we go play
• You've also begun pushing Sissy when she makes you mad.  For better or worse, you're learning to assert yourself  :)
• I turned your car seat forward this month (to get you and Abigail away from each other) and you LOVE IT.  Seriously, 7th heaven!
• You are still more than slightly obsessed with Princess Anna and TV remotes
• You can eat a whole bag of dried strawberries in one sitting.  They are by far your favorite snack.
• You've begun walking down steps independently
• Bedtime is at 6:30 and you crave it (we all do!) and you sleep 13 hours straight
• You take 3 hour naps if I can manage to put you down by 11:30am 
• You would watch Curious George 24/7 if I let you.  It's your third obsession in life  :)

Checking out your new forward-facing carseat  :)

I love you so much and am having such fun with you these days!

You, me, and Sissy have become quite the Monday-Friday team and it's so fun running around with you guys.  

The Three Amigos  :)

Happy Year and a Half, baby boy.
