18 Months

Today my little man turned 18 months old....WOW, he is already half way to 2 years old. I literally cannot believe it...it seems like just yesterday I was wondering if he would EVER sleep through the night..hahha!!! He is getting so big and absolutely hilarious!! He has such a fun spirit and goes full force at everything he does....including running though the house to bump into me and laugh hysterically....I LOVE IT!!!!!
18 things we Love these days

1. I love that he sleeps though the night, bottom in the air and all
2. He loves to climb on the couch (we are "learning" that couches are for sitting, NOT for standing, hahah)
3. He LOVES his cousin Mollie....oh so sweet

4. He loves to play with balls or anything that will bounce
5. He loves to drag everything out of my the drawers in the kitchen while I am cooking
6. I LOVE the way he says "Momma"
7. I love to loyalty he has towards his daddy (but he will ALWAYS need his momma..hahha)
8. Its so funny how he knows when we are on our way to GiGi's house....he sees the street and starts saying "GiGi??"
9. He LOVES fish.....we stop by the fish tanks every time we go to walmart and he is mesmerized (and he loved the aquarium in Oklahoma...it was such a JOY to watch him get so excited and laugh and talk to all of the fish)
10. He still enjoys his books and will not go to sleep unless you read him at least one story (currently the bed time story has been given by daddy from his little Bible)
11. His vocabulary is growing tremendously....yesterday he learned how to say "yummy" and "yucky" (its more like "ummy" and "ucky" but we are getting there)
12. I love his sweet little hugs and kisses.....nothing gets better than that
13. He loves to help me around the house...he will carry socks to the dresser and carry his dirty clothes to the laundry room (of course, I have to follow behind him and pick up dropped objects)
14. He loves to sit in Brad's lap and listen and drum to music
15. He loves to be outside, he watches the birds and bugs and giggles at them
16. I am having a super hard time getting him off the pacifier (the "um" as maddox calls it) because he LOVES it so much
17. He loves to try to fasten any buckle he can see (car seat, high chair, stroller, you name it, if it has a strap, he will try to buckle it, and if he can't he will make sure you know how frustrated that makes him)
18. I love my Maddox
Look at how big he is getting
