My Sweet Little Man...

is almost 17 months old! It is so sad he is growing so fast, yet so fun to see him grow and learn! He is learning some new words:
tash (crash)
nana (banana)
app (apple)
told (cold)
hat
hot
owee (ouchy)
no
(I'm sure I forgot some and will be adding more)

He is obsessed with a couple books right now (one being 101 First Words) and doesn't want to read any others that I pick out. He is doing a great job of pointing to an object when I ask where it is on the page.
He has been saying "mom, mom" or "dad, dad", a lot, to get our attention!
He is doing a very good job of eating on his own with a fork or spoon and really does use it most of the time.
Loves dancing and "playing" cards. Grandpa Wiese gave him his own deck :) He loves it when we "get him" and tickle him. He enjoys putting shapes into the holes and is getting really good at knowing how to match the shape with the shape of the hole. He loves animals and animal sounds and can make some.
He is also obsessed with my camera. He loves to watch the videos on it and look at the pictures. He will sit forever and look. I have to hide the camera because if he sees it, he will beg for it, and then cry when he doesn't get it! He also loves watching home videos on the computer. And of course, still loves watching Baby Einstein. He loves taking baths and going outside. He always has to take balls and discs out with him :)
Saturday I gave him his first "real" haircut! I cut most of his curls off :( It is still long enough to curl (wave) a little, especially after his bath! It was just getting to scraggly. ( The bathtub pictures are from after his cut. )
He continues to be our sweet little boy that loves to give us hugs and kisses, loves to pray before dinner and reminds us if we forget, and snuggles for 2o minutes after he wakes up.
I. LOVE. IT.
