Thought I'd share....

This is probably just for my mom...

Almost 18 months

Up until this point I usually tell people how many months old you are. I think I'll start saying 'a year and a half' now. I think that's allowed at this point.

You're not quite a year and a half (4 more Sunday's until nursery), but I think you're close enough.

You certainly act like a year and a half year old (or even a two year old). I don't think I can keep up with all of your new words and 'cute' things you do. My favorite lately is that you can do somersaults and 'show me your muscles'. Grandma Hardcastle also found a tricky way to get a hug, you love finding other people's shoulders, so all I have to do is ask you to put your head on my shoulder -instant hug!

You eat dirt on an almost daily basis. Sorry about that, I try to stop you, but you're as quick as lightening when you get outside.

You're still fearless -always thinking you can run faster than you're feet will carry you, jump off things farther than your legs and reach, and be apart of everything that the big kids are doing. I think in the long run this will be a good trait, at the moment, you get a lot of bumps and bruises, and nearly give me a heart attack.

You still dance and 'lead' music whenever you hear it. I still haven't been able to video you when you sing, but it's stinking cute. You LOVE books, some days I feel like all we do is read book after book that you bring me.

You're still REALLY attached to Buddy. If he's not with you (we try to leave him in the crib) you call for him and search for him. I think I give in too much and give him to you because you are just absolutely happy when you find him.
