22 months

22 months and what you are doing right now:



  • you are a very good listener. you do as you are told and don't really put up much of a fight


  • you are no calling me "mommy" and not "mama" so much. so stinkin sweet!


  • you have learned to say "i scared". where did you hear this? do you want to see santa? "i scared", ready for bed? "i scared"...don't really know how to handle this one. we did get a night light that you love, so that is better at least!


  • still in obsessed with mickey mouse and know exactly how to get to it on the ipad


  • you are a sweet boy....you don't shove, fight, bite, slap, etc. you do get territorial with toys but that is it!


  • you give great open armed bear hugs and have learned to make the kissing sound when giving out kisses!


  • your vocabulary amazes me everyday! i just can't get over how much you know and soak in everyday....it truly makes me in awe!


  • not interested in much food right now except fruit and any "snack"


  • you are stubborn like your daddy! you have to wear certain pajamas and will NOT let me pick them out. same with your shoes. oh, and you REFUSE to wear socks.


  • you have the smelliest feet ever.


  • loves stickers, drawing, etc. i actually walked in on you yesterday drawing on the carpet. awesome.


  • you love to naked dance. every night after your bath, you run in my room and gallop around slapping your thighs. bet it feels good to hang loose!


  • you now have opinions about the songs i play in the car. "next song!!" " again!!!" well, at least i had 22 months to listen to what I wanted.


  • you say NO a LOT. when you don't want something or to go somewhere, noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!! that is how long the word is said


  • i have to bribe you to go places in the afternoon and the bribe is to mostly go see Pap and when we don't go see him, you don't forget and scream his name


  • ate greenbeans for the first time this friday night at the barksdales. its a christmas miracle!! a vegetable!!!


  • you looooove your colbie. she is the first thing you ask for every morning.


  • you are still throwing balls with mostly your left arm, but so some with your right...who knows what will be your dominant hand?


  • you hate taking pictures. won't sit still, won't look at the camera. whose child are you? ;)


  • you want to do everything "myself" now. walking, getting into the car seat, washing yourself, my boy is growing up!
