our (big) little man turned 18 months old last week! here's what william is doing:

::mr. independent

::very ticklish

::lots of teeth! his molars are FINALLY in.... he was a bit uncomfortable there for a while

::loves to chew on and eat anything and everything in sight

::gets REALLY frustrated when he can't do something that daniel is doing

::FREAKS out if we try to change his course of action---he's a man on a mission

::loves being outside

::cuddle bug (but only for a minute)---he leans in for kisses and LOVES to hug

::loves to wave and blow kisses

::loves his blankies

::favorite snack: dried cherries or cheese sticks

::trying SO hard to communicate---he's doing better, but most of his words are not completely comprehensible unless you're around him all the time. still signs please and thank you. he understands A LOT, but he's working on the vocabulary. we think it's really cute when you ask him a question and he nods his head and says "uh huh." he says "uh oh" perfectly.....usually when he has intentionally dropped some food on the floor.

::sleeps well: 7:00-7:00 (sometimes up before that, but hangs out and talks to himself in his crib) one nap for 2-3 hours.

::loves music and dancing!

::extremely squirmy during diaper changes or when trying to get him into his carseat

::he is curious george---getting into things, discovering new things, AND he even sounds a little like him when he talks! :)

::LOVE YOU WILLIAM! we can't wait to see you continue to grow and learn about the world around you!

we are scheduled to go into the doctor in april to get their 18 month and 3 yr. check-ups. we'll report back then!
