15 months

here are a bunch of pictures that are almost in focus.
but fitting I guess...because, I'm no professional, but moving subjects can sometimes be hard to get into focus. and this subject is on the move. always.

he's 15 months (and change). okaaaay, like probably closer to 16 months.
and he loves books. and the ABCs. and dancing, brushing his teeth, and playing in the basement or outside. and he's really attached to his blankie and paci.

he is a climber. stairs, couches, bookshelves. oy vey. and his height (91%) is only helping this. as is his determination and the (much to my shagrin) help and encouragement from his older brother. caution to the wind, this one.

favorite words: more, 'hungy' (hungry. and he always is. he's got almost 26lbs and a 99% head to keep filled up), bye bye, hi!hi!hi!, me, juuuuu (juice), broccoli (yes he likes broccoli, but he also seems to use this word often...so we're really not sure). nighnie (sweet boy kinda likes his bed. just like his mama). but he's all sorts of chatty these days...

he has 16 teeth. and has for awhile. it was a really intense (read: super crabby and sleepless) couple of months. but we're on the other side. phew.

and inside this sweet bundle of adventurous joy is a little defiant stinker who won't look at the camera and finds great satisfaction of doing the the exact opposite of what you ask. we've got our hands (and hearts) really, really full.
