18 Months Old!

Baby C is no longer a little baby! He is now the big 1 and 1/2. I have learned A LOT this past year and a half. It all seems somewhat like a blurr with chaos and joy mixed in. Little C man is growing and growing. He loves to tease his big sister, he loves to try to get her in trouble. He loves food, although he still has a hard time with it...he will eat and eat and eat. He is starting to sleep. Within the past four months he has slept in HIS bed for an ENTIRE night 5 times. WAAAHOOOO!!!! He runs, he jumps, he jumps while he throws, he throws a ball harder than I can, anything long is a bat...he has used cooking spoons, bowling pins, spatulas, Miss A's toy rolling pin, and my long comb as a bat. He swings those bats and brings you one to swing too. Anything and I mean ANYTHING round is a ball. When walking into the grocery store the first excited words out of this boys mouth while pointing to the apples and oranges that always great us as we walk in are "baall". He loves the check out line at Costco because he can see the TV section and he'll start jumping in the cart saying "bayball" or "ball" for football. We bought the movie Inside Out which we love...and he climbs up on our bed grabs the remote, points to the TV and says can you guess??? "Ball" The memories are shaped like ball so to him it is like the greatest movie on earth.

He throws tantrums...especially when I won't let him eat his halloween candy. For the first few days after Halloween he walked around until the chocolate was melted in the wrapper in his hand. He loves anything sweet. He sleeps in until 8 or 9 usually. He loves dogs.

He says, mama, dad, nana, papa, right there, this, ball, bat, bayball, dog, ink for drink, bread, all done, get down, fish, car, truck, inky for stinky (while plugging his nose), eyes, duck, quack, yeah, Jesus.

He thinks burping is funny, he loves studio C. He likes music and dancing or falling. He falls A LOT, he climbs A LOT. He loves the bath, he loves the car, he loves when daddy gets home. He pants like a dog when he sees one. He points while moving his whole body in the direction he is moving. He gives such sweet hugs around your neck. He loves to spit while brushing his teeth just like his sister. He wants to be big. He reads from the scriptures at the table like daddy. He picks up the scriptures that daddy reads to us from and says "dad". He folds his arms for prayers when he hears "amen". He loves to be outside, he loves the slide, he hates the swings. He loves shoes and socks and his baseball jammies. He went to nursery on Sunday and stayed the entire time!!! They bribed him with animal crackers...and it worked. He loves the songs Book of Mormon Stories, I am a Child of God, Dream A Little Dream of Me, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Good Mornin' Good Mornin', Studio C's Avengers, I Know that My Savior Loves Me. 

He giggles when you roar like a dinosaur or lion. He likes to throw things in the garbage. I have found his binky, his big sisters socks, and an unopened package of skittles so far. 
 
He is one awesome little guy!
