19 months

I haven't been very good at keeping up with your monthly updates. Time is flying by and before I even realize it another month has passed! You are talking more and more and trying to put 2 words together. You are loving Warner's choo choos and love to find the choo choo in some of the books we read. I love spending our mornings together just me & you. We miss Warner and can't wait til it's time to go get him, but I treasure our time alone. You are now a definite momma's boy - no more daddy. You want only me!! All day long you call my name - momma! momma! Most of the time you don't even need anything, you just like the way it sounds on your lips. Ha! In the car you are calling my name, in a store you are calling my name, waking up from your nap and in the morning you are calling my name, at home you are calling my name, sitting right in my lap you are calling my name. You will just stop what you're doing and call my name, and sometimes come over and hug & kiss me as if you haven't seen me in a long time. It is very flattering!! You are throwing fits. I forgot this started so soon. I'm talking the fall down on the floor and kick and scream kind of fits. I'm just leaving the room and not giving you any attention when you do it...hopefully this puts it to an end! You love going to Warner's t-ball practices. You put the ball on the tee and grab the bat like you are part of the team. You love to say no..and usually you say no, but mean yes. I started emphasizing the head nod every time I would say yes, and now you do the same thing!! It is so funny to watch! You still love to eat and get so excited about food. When you & Warner sit down to eat it takes you a fraction of the time it takes Warner to clean your plate...you don't mess around!

I love your big brown eyes...and I don't like that thumb!! Will you go to college sucking that thumb??

If Warner does it, you think you can do it too!

Here you are throwing a fit...

dirt road sport

taking all the trains and hoping Warner doesn't notice

your favorite new thing is throwing sticks in water

you love to put your feet on the table while you're eating...not good!

I love rocking you before bed. We have to get both blankets and your pillow and put them in the chair with us. You lay your head down on my shoulder and just let me rock you for a little while. Sometimes you sit up and point to my mouth meaning you want me to sing, and then you will clap at the end of every song. I am usually absolutely worn out at that time of day! I rock you and I am so thankful for you and for your brother. God is good!! It is a blessing every single day to be your mom!! Just stop growing up so fast...it is going by too quickly!!
