I am a wopping 17 months now! Very hard to believe. I know you're thinking, " wow it would have been nice to see pics between the one year birthday and now." But really it was so that you can see all my new hair and how my teeth are not so far from each other now. I almost look like a real little kid. There was a while that i overheard my Dad keep asking my Mom if she thought I was going to need braces to fix my "gap." I mean, what is a gap? It sounded scary, so at night, I prayed the "gap" would go away (and that I would be blessed with more hair) and it all came true. Growing up is so great.
Of course, I can now run, go up and down stairs without help, assist mom with dishes (kind of), put things in the trash (and in the toilet, but mom does not like that one so much). I also LOVE to read, eat, play with balls, cuddle with "mommy" and wrestle with "daddy." I can say please (turns out like "me" and he touches his little chest), thank you, hi, bye bye, mommy, daddy, ball, tree (like tee...you know for Christmas tree), bible and baby. Also on occation, I say Jesus. Always good to learn that name early. That's an important one they tell me. And like every good boy, I LOVE cars. No one ever has to teach a boy the sounds of a car; they just come naturally.
