17.

We have a 17 month old who runs all over the place, throws everything, loves playing with trucks and balls, still would watch Thomas all day if you let him, talks up a storm, annoys/loves Haley and just enjoys life in general! He is doing great with time-out and I think it's really helping. He has learned how to blow kisses and they are oh so sweet! When you pull up to the apartment he can tell you who lives there, minus Mama………for some reason only Dada and Haley live there right now - ha. He's learning a lot in his gym class and starting to not be as scared of trying new things as he used to be. He's certainly not shy of the other children. He recently found 5 eggs in his first Easter egg hunt. He still loves that pap-pap and I'm not sure when we'll try and take it away. When we do it might just be cold turkey-- I hear that's the best way?? He's still wearing size 4 diapers, mostly 18 month clothes, takes one nap a day and still sleeps great through the night. Although recently he's been going to bed closer to 8pm and I think it has to do with him getting sick and his whole schedule getting thrown off, in addition to daylight savings time happening all at the same time. I hope to get him back on his 7pm schedule soon. He really is all boy right now and is so fun to be around. He is much more aware of his surroundings and can really communicate a lot better.  I hear a new word come out of his mouth everyday! I'm loving this age right now. But I've loved every minute so far and can only imagine it's going to get better and better. Especially with a little brother on the way!  This was the only picture I took of him with my phone yesterday on his 17 month birthday:



I was brushing my teeth before work and he looked at me and started saying TEETH! TEETH!...he was ready for his toothbrush and wanted to brush his teeth!
