16 months

I'm 16 months old! I'm very silly!!!!!! I am finally walking and love to see my family get all excited when I walk instead of speed crawl! I love to play with pots and pans, my magnets and love to make a big mess with the DVD's and in my room! It's really funny! They clean I destroy 😂. I laugh a lot my sissy Joy shakes the water bottles and it is soooo funny! I am super ticklish! I love to blow raspberries and my adopted grandma Marilyn showed me how to move my tongue around my mouth mine doesn't make those silly sounds but I will get it to one day.

15 months

I am 15 months old! I still won't walk alone have to be holding the wall , couch or something! It's just easier this way moving to me is easier by speed crawling or reaching my arms UP!!! I'm 22lb 10oz . 31 1/2 inches long. I love most all foods I'm definitely not a picky eater, but it does make me mad if you're eating and I'm not; I'm a growing boy !!! I love to stay home and chase the puppy , climb on things even though I for some reason can't get down afterwards but it's funny bc I make mommy or daddy have to come get me! (I wouldn't have it any other way).

14 months

I am 14 months old and I can move around just about anywhere I want. I am good though I don't care to get into things just like my toys and to roam around the house, I like to look out the front door and to play in the kitchen ... I love all foods I eat just about anything on my plate and mommy and daddy's ... I can stand up but I still don't care to walk. I have gone a few steps and stood with my cup but would rather crawl much faster and safer :) I have really grown seems like over night. I weigh 22 lbs and am 31 inches long. I love zootopia, fireman sam, and gnomeo and juliet was just introduced and I laughed like crazy. I love my new toy that I can make the little circles fall and play with the little pegs on the top. Such fun.

11 months

I am 11 months old! Still have no teeth!!! But I am able to eat pretty much anything off mommy plate. (She shares better than Daddy) I can crawl finally but I throw a fit to show everyone I would rather not! I can pull myself up with your finger or if I'm by the couch. I love my walker and going around the kitchen. My new favorite food is French toast. But I love guacamole, chicken, salmon, sweet potatoes, refried beans, pasta, peas, and beans and toast! I drool a lot bc of these teeth.
