16 Months

I can't believe this little guy is 16 months all ready! I know I have said this before, but he is such a good baby/toddler!



He doesn't say any words yet, but he lets you know what he wants with his grunts and yells. He is able to hold his own most of the time when trying to play with Aaron and Sophia.
He has started trying to climb on stuff. He's tried climbing on the oven. He will put his foot on the drawer under the oven and then holds onto the over door. So far, this hasn't ended very well. He either can't get himself up and ends up falling on the floor or he ends up falling as the oven door opens. He doesn't try climbing on the oven very much any more thank goodness.
He lets you know when he wants a drink of his milk. He will go to the fridge and try to pull it open while whining/grunting.
He still takes 2 naps most days!  Each nap is 2-3 hours long. Very, very nice! :) When he wakes up from his naps, he is so quite. He will stay in bed for a long time just being happy. In the morning it is a different story though. He will let you know he has been in his bed long enough.
He isn't a picky eater. He will eat most things, which I am grateful for. The other two are still kind of picky on what they eat (Aaron is getting better though and Sophia eats about 5 bites and then is done).
He still is very snugly. When he is tired he will lay his head down on your shoulder. It is so nice when he snuggles with you.
He loves to laugh at everything. It is had to try and teach him not to do something because he thinks it is funny and it is hard not to laugh with him because he is so cute when he laughs.
He loves to be outside and gets really excited when he sees any animals or hears our neighbors dog bark.
He has gotten quite a few teeth in the last month. All of his back molars are in and some more teeth in front on the bottom.
His hair is still very blonde. I expect it will start turning darker at some point, like Chris' hair did when he was little.
I am so grateful for this little guy. He is such a great addition to our family.
