19 months!!

 
John celebrated his half birthday surrounded by family at Edisto last month. So fun. I need to post about all that...

In the meantime, he's already 19 months old! 

Last Wed (8/21), he officially changed tocalling  me Mommy instead of Mama. Dan is now Daddy. Very cute. 

He has four grinders, and eight front teeth (four top, four bottom), and his hair is getting slightly thicker. Slightly. 

He's mastered traveling up and down stairs unassisted (though we don't trust him enough not to employ the gates, etc.) One habit I find endearing (though sometimes annoying) is that when traveling downstairs, he'll usually stop a few stairs from the bottom, sit down, say "Bottom" (ba-ba), and wait for me to sit  with him. If I don't, he pats the stair next to him and says "ba-ba" again. Just taking a little break to enjoy the view. Haha. 

He likes to snuggle with "Night-night" when he's getting ready for bed, and loves books before and after sleeping. (As well as other times!)

He likes to do whatever his big brother is doing (oh, he says "brother"-- so sweet!) which includes scaling playground equipment and coming down big slides. 

He jumps. 

He still eats like a champ.

He's very interested in the potty. (I'm considering potty training, but think he may be too young?) My favorite is when he stands at the potty like he sees James do, pulls up his shirt and aims his belly for the potty. So adorable. 

He has tons of words and signs. I love it when he's wearing his tiger outfit (like today), points at his chest and says, "Rar!!"
