16 months


Better late then never right?? He's actually 16.5 months...oh well
This month has been so fun with Rowan. He is turning into such a funny little guy.

-Loves making us laugh and now uses that to try to stay up late!
-Loves hiding and playing peek a boo all.day.long!
-Says SO many words. My goodness. He is always complimented on his huge vocabulary everywhere we go.
-Knows that santa says Ho Ho Ho. He actually calls santa Ho Ho. When ever he sees a picture of santa he gets excited. However, when we took him to see santa he completely freaked out!
-Is now taking one nap a day. I'm having a love/hate relationship with this.
-Has amazing gross motor skills.
-Seems to learn a new sign every few days. I really believe that is why he is talking so much. When we sign to him we say what we are signing and I think that has really helped build his vocabulary.
-Likes to sit on his potty seat on the toilet
-Hates brushing his teeth, but loves the sign for it.
-Is still a fabulous eater. He may not eat a lot, but he eats a large variety.
-Loves his baby doll and takes such good care of it. He will be such an awesome big brother someday (and no, that's not a hint)
-Loves his daddy so much and has such a hard time when daddy goes to work.
-Loves to paint and color. He hardly even eats the paint anymore!
-Follows almost any direction you give him.
-We took him to Holiday in the Park in San Jose and he loved all the little scenes and lights. He kept telling us "mo, mo" which is more in Rowan language.


He really is such an amazing little guy. He is such a huge joy in our lives and I feel so blessed to be his mom. I love that he is becoming his own person, even when that means he has some very strong opinions. I'm so excited for Christmas this year, I just know he's going to have a blast at my parents house!
