18 Months

Well our little man just turned 18 months last week and I can't believe how time has flown.
He is definitely not a baby anymore. He had his check up and is still coming in around the 85th percentile for height. Every time someone asks how old he is, they assume he's 2 or 3.
He continues to blow me away with how smart he is. He is doing really well with potty training, going a couple times a day on his big boy potty seat. He's also starting to recognize a few shapes and letters. I freaked out one day while reading to him and he pointed to a shape and said, "oval!" I couldn't believe it. He also says some random fun words like turtle, elbow, moon, ball, kitten. Of course my favorite is him yelling, "Momma!" across the house. He's still going to the Little Gym once a week and having a blast with that. He's about to move up to the big boy class in a couple weeks and I think that will be great for him, a little more of a challenge.  He's on a really great schedule right now that makes my day much easier. He's sleeping really good and eating well also. He loves to sing and dance. We blast the radio at home and he starts boppin' his head and yes, we taught him to fist pump, lol. It is a wonderful feeling as a mom, to watch my son grow and learn everyday. He is happy and healthy and that is all I could ever ask for. Here are some pictures from the last few months....

 In February we took him to see Elmo Live. We were worried he might
get scared, but we were in the 4th row and he loved it.

                                                         Had his Elmo gear ready.

 Valentine's Day. He got a whole bag of goodies then helped himself to a couple cupcakes.


    Whenever it's quiet, I can count on him being in the dog kennel. He thinks it's so funny.


                                                    Loves wearing big people shoes.


Went to Galveston beach last week. Had so much fun. Water was too cold
at first, but then he warmed up to it. Our friend Parker came too!
