18 Months

Buddy,
You are 18 months.  A year and a half.  Half a year until you are two.  Phew!  Time is going by way too quickly!

You continue to grow into your huge personality.  From the time you were just crawling around, I pegged you for future "class clown."  My prediction remains...you are CONSTANTLY joking around and making people laugh at your antics.  We love our little comedian.  And you love your knock-knock jokes:)

You are still speaking mostly Chinese inspired jibberish, but now you are often heard saying: "Nick" (Nicole), "Mimi," "Grapes," "Tap Tap" (hammer), "Tick Tock" (every clock or watch you see), "uh-oh" and "boo-boo," "book," "Brooke," and now you like to call Dad "my dadda."

You know all the parts of your body, you know all about nature and animals, and most recently--you have learned what a "time-out" is :(  You are still infatuated with anything with a motor--car, train, airplane or truck.  The garbage truck has been coming before your morning nap, and you get really excited to watch it dump (and you say "dump, dump, dump!")

18 months...let's freeze time now.
