21 Months and a Gift from above :)

(Posted a day late)You are 21 months old today baby boy! And you've received a beautiful gift from God...SNOW! Yes, it is your VERY FIRST snow and you MORE than LOVE it! You have played until your cheeks and nose are rosey red! And when it was time to come inside to warm up you cried crocodile tears.


At 21 months...

you say a multitude of words and a few sentences

you drank a gallon of milk in 5 days (that's a LOT for you)

you wear 18-24 months in clothes

size 4 diaper, but you'll be on your way to a 5 soon

lately, you ask to go "nite, nite" you love playing in your crib

unfortunately, you're learning how to climb out of your crib, toddler bed will be in the works soon!

you still love that "paci"

you climb on the toilet and say "pee pee" and "poop" but you haven't actually done either act in the toilet yet, you are beginning to understand though :)

mommy and daddy bribe you for kisses and hugs all of the time and you will give them abundantly!

you are a very happy little boy, smiling and laughing all the time

you love to play hide and seek with mommy (we hide and chase e/o around the couch)

you love to use your handy manny tools to fix things around the house, anytime daddy gets out the hammer, you run and get yours as well

the Christmas tree has no ornaments around the bottom...you're clearing them out one by one, we continue to hang them higher and higher.

you painted for the first time a few days ago and really enjoyed it.

on occasion you will sit through an entire book, but not as well as you once did, too much to do!

You can count to three, though you've never really said "one" if you're holding three objects you say "three" and if you're holding two objects you say "two". Mama's pretty proud of you for that :).

You know colors yellow, red, and blue. However, the colors you don't know, you refer to as "yeyow".

You love to dance, you jump up and down, and snap those fingers.

You're a little daredevil; you love jumping, crawling, and flipping off the couch, you also love to climb chairs.

Mi-mi and da-da have decided that we have lost motivation to get out and do anything that involves keeping us away from you too long. That includes work and overnight trips...unfortunately, the work thing, we have to do. Maybe someday we'll win the lottery, that way we can sit around and look at each other ALL DAY :).


Love you Gav, to the moon and back, more than all the stars in the sky.
