16 New things with Wes

16--WHAT...seriously. When someone asks me how old he is I want to say 10 months. I can't believe it. Way too fast the 2nd time around.

This month we have sprouted.

1. WE HAVE A WALKER!!!! And let me tell you I totally forgot how cute first time walkers are. I have dusted off my running shoes! I was sitting at my office May 20th and I see this little head walk by me and I did a double take and he was walking out the playroom door.
2. I will ask him if he wants to go Nite Nite and he walks to the gate of the stairs.
3. He will go to the door to go for a ride.
4. He will go to the fridge or pantry when he is hungry and pick his food that he wants. He loves the bottom drawer of the fridge because it has buddy fruits.
5. If the milk is all gone from his cup he will hand it to me and grunt for me to get him more.
6. He loves to say MAMA all.the.time.
7. He will put the phone to his ear and say "HI". Or he will come up to you and say "hi". So cute!
8. The animal noises he makes are cow, dog, monkey, pig, lion. When he sees any of these animals he goes wild with the animal sounds (esp the dog).
9. He wants to learn how to use the spoon on his own and I will help him scoop and assist to put it in his mouth and he laughs.
10. He loves music. He loves to dance and clap when it comes on.
11. He is learning how to do the cookie jar and put shapes in and he gets all excited when he does it.
12. He is showing interest in puzzles and trying to put pieces in.
13. He has learned how to climb onto the kitchen chairs and his brothers bed without assistance. Couches are still a little too high but he will use a pillow to help him.
14. He hates it when his mama leaves the room or goes bye bye. When I get my keys or shoes he starts crying instantly.
15. He loves Gabbie. He wants to pet her and play with her. Gabbie seems to like the attention.
16. He has learned to blow. He will try to blow bubbles or the leap frog birthday cake.
