20 Months

Looking at chickens

My dear sweet baby, you don’t seem like much of a baby lately. You are starting to talk more and more. It seems like every few days you say a new word. Today you kept saying “Here you go” as you handed me towels to fold. You can also finally jump. Not too high, but you are getting air now.

This month has been busy, as it is the beginning of the school year. We have gone to a couple of back to school events, you have been had a lot of fun. You have transitioned nicely back to daycare. You enjoy playing with your friends. There have been a few biting incidents, but you have been bitten too, so I guess it’s ok. You have mostly stopped biting at home, except for today when you were mad at me. Both you and I have started going to a chiropractor. You love it. Besides the fact that they have lots of puzzles and toys you laugh when he is adjusting you. You also love to flirt with all of the office ladies. You do this thing where you look up with an amazing smile on your face. You did it the other day and once they laughed at you the show was on! You would have flirted with them all afternoon if hadn’t have dragged you out of there!



The big news is that you have started going to sleep in your own room! Your dad bought you a nice vintage bed frame at an estate sale. He loves you and the bed so much that when he puts you to bed he usually falls asleep with you. You haven’t made it through a whole night yet, but I think you will soon. Almost every day around 7:30 you start getting cranky. When we ask you if you are ready for bed you start heading for the stairs. This month you are not crying as much when you wake up from naps. I hope your sleeping routines continue to improve. You are so much happier when you are well rested.

When we go for walks you often want to start off walking Frida. I start our walks pushing an empty stroller. I have been impressed with how far you have been walking.  Last weekend we went to the fair. You were so excited about the animals, especially the cows. You say “boooooo” when we ask you what a cow says.

I turned my back for 3 seconds!

You are so amazing my little boy and I love you so much!
