20 months and new things with Nate

Nate is getting to be so much fun. He does the cutest things that just melt my heart. I still can't believe he is going to be 2 in April! So many changes coming his way and our way!

1. Spitting has gotten better. He does it only when he is really mad at someone. But now I am catching him banging his head on things when he gets upset. I have no idea why he does that one.
2. When he gets all excited he stomps his feet and laughs.
3. When someone leaves the room he will say "where are you"
4. When he doesn't want something or we tell him "NO" he will say "no no no no no". He will even do it when we try to feed him food he doesn't want.
5. He now can ride his push car. He always went backwards but now he knows how to ride it forward.
6. He moved into his new room and loves it! He really loves his own bathroom.
7. He climbs on anything he can. He discovered that he can now climb on the coffee table. He is so fast that I can't catch him most of the time
8. His ABC's is sounding so much better. "A" "G" "P". You can catch some letters when he sings with us.
9. I always count going up the stairs and he will say "2" "3" "6" "13". Now we just have to fill in those other numbers:)
10. He will just come up to me to give me a hug
11. He is really into kisses. When he goes to kiss you he says "mmmmmmmMMM". I do this with him and thought it was so funny that he started doing it. So he will just start "mmmm" and he will give me his cheek so I can kiss him. Sometimes he will kiss me on my lips. Too CUTE!
12. He is obsessed with Mickey Mouse. He will now hand me the remote and say "ickey".
13. When he watches Mickey mouse he will sing the theme songs with them and you can understand some of the words.
14. He is also "getting" what they are doing in the show and will laugh. He got Bambi for Christmas and when the thunderstorm comes on and the rain hits Bambi's nose he will crack up laughing.
15. He is more and more into books. He will point things out all the time. I gave him a Mickey Mouse book for Christmas and Toodles is in it. Every time we turn the page and he sees it he will say "oh Toooodles". You can even hear him in the morning reading it to himself and say "oh Toodles".
16. We are trying to give him plates with his meals. It is going well but we noticed if we cover Mickey's face he pushes the food off so he can see it. The food ends up off the plate just so he can see all of Mickey. I have been told that his father use to do this too!
17. When we are in the car and we stop suddenly or we go over a bump he will say "uh oh"
18. When we drive on 400 and pass the cow pasture he will say "cow"
19. Every animal that comes on TV is a Cow. I correct him and he will argue back to me a "Cow".
20. Also whenever he sees an apple he will point it out on the TV or any of his toys or books.
