16 months

Jackson, you are 16 months old!! You are getting so big, and you are so much fun!!! Daddy and I are constantly laughing at you, amazed by you, or very frustrated with you. Laughing because you try to do everything right along with your brother. Amazed at just how smart you are - you know just what we're saying! Frustrated because you are into everything - your favorites being the toilet and the garbage!

You were so much fun this Christmas. You would open a present and say "ooohhhh". It was priceless! You love your shopping cart and love to load it up and push it around the house. The ball pit is another favorite...and you will dive in and stay in there forever just playing with the balls.

You love to eat!! If I let you, you would have something in your mouth all day long. You wake up and go straight to the kitchen, making sure we follow, and point to the cabinets. Your favorite foods are blueberries, strawberries, grapes, yogurt, applesauce, pasta, avocado, banana, pancakes, cheese, breakfast bars, mum mums, puffs....and sadly, french fries! You really like whatever we put in your mouth. Ha!

You love love love your brother!! He loves you just as much...and I love seeing y'all play together. But y'all also do a lot of fighting :(

I love seeing you with your grandparents - all 4 adore you!

those eyes!!! They are one of my favorite things about you...

You are a daddy's boy!

You don't want to be rocked anymore - the second I sit down to rock you, you start pointing for your bed...ugh! What happened to my itty bitty baby?!

You are only taking one nap a day now. It's been great because you are sleeping for about 3 hours!!

Did I mention you love your brother....and you will give him the biggest hugs and kisses!

You love to be outside! We have to make sure the back door is closed all the way because if not you will push it open and go outside by yourself.

You are a mess and you keep me on my toes, but I wouldn't have it any other way!!
