And grows and grows and grows...




My sweet boy is almost sixteen months old. I cannot believe how fast time goes! I know I say that all the time, but REALLY, why does it have to go by so quickly? J will be 16 months on February 1st. (Yes, I am just getting his 15 month update posted!) His check up at the pediatrician went well. He is 31 1/2 inches long (50-75%) and 23 pounds, 2 oz (25-50%). J is wearing size 18 month clothes and will surely pass up his "big" sis by his second birthday! He has most of his teeth and we are just seeing the last four begin to break through this week (yay!).

Little mister loves books, trucks, and music. He also loves hats and puts everything on his head! He loves to dance and is a big flirt! It is physically impossible NOT to smile when he smiles at you; which makes teaching him not to touch certain things tricky. J is always on the go. He doesn't sit still for long! He loves to climb and Mommy has found him standing on top of the slide and on top of the table in K's room. One of J's favorite "no no" activities is standing on the couch, saying "Whooooooa" and then falling straight backwards onto his back. He thinks it's hilarious and of course, Mommy and Daddy just know he will fall off the couch so find it less humorous. When he gets mad, he gets MAD, and lets us know about it.

J loves his big sis more than anyone. He follows her around like a little shadow. He isn't saying much yet, although suddenly will say something unexpected leaving Daddy and I to look at each other like "did he just say that?"

He is a bright light in our family!!
