20 (and 19) Months

Better late than never, right? The past 2 months have just flown by. Rowan is learning so much every day it's hard to keep up with. In my head he just turned one and is so hard to believe that he will be 2 in four short months!
Some stuff he has been up to lately:

-Talking, talking, and talking. I know I say this in every post, but boy can this child talk! His verbal skills are way ahead of the game. He has started saying 2-4 word sentences, and some of his favorites are "dump it out", "more _____ please", "mama do it", "dada eat lunch work"...meaning that he remembers that daddy has to eat lunch at work before he comes home. "mama/dada hold you" meaning he wants to be held. "mama get you" when I get him from his room in the morning. The other morning he did say "mama get me"
-He will say "excuse me" when he burps, farts, hiccups, or coughs. It's so adorable. He also tries to blame his burps on his mom and dad!
-Has gotten better at his colors. He knows blue, red, green, yellow, purple, pink, orange, black, white, and sometimes brown. He will point out cars that are different colors as well as specify what color crayon/paint he wants to use.
-Loves trains. We read his train book at least 5x a day. He can identify the different types in the book as well. These include: Steam, electric, monorail, freight, mountain climber, and snow blower train. Oh, and the railroad crane.
-He can repeat the whole alphabet (as in repeats the letters after we say them) He does a great job at pronouncing them as well.
-When he says the letter "u" he says "you, you, you" while pointing to us.
-Started putting an "uh" sound at the end of a lot of his words. He finds it funny most of the time. So instead of his normal "Pease" he says "Peauh" (please)
-Can now get his feet off the ground when he jumps...just barely though.
-Can climb the ladders at his gym class
-Loves to give his friends hugs
-Will give us "loves" even when we don't ask for them.
-Does a great job at holding our hands when we are walking through parking lots, etc.
-Has started eating large amounts of food most days. Before he would eat most anything, just not a lot of it.
-He will tell me what he wants for lunch most days. Usually his wants consist of: pizza, veggie dog, cheese, apple, pear, orange, or banana.
-Loves his coconut milk and says coconut the cutest way.
-Loves BUBBLE baths.
-Went on another round trip flight but didn't get sick this time!!!
-Is really good at stacking blocks and will say "timber" when they fall over.
-Enjoys cooking in his kitchen.
-Loves going to the park, especially swinging.
-Likes pushing his baby doll around in its little stroller.
-Can blow bubbles with a little bubble wand.
-Seems to remember things better. He will remember stuff we did a few days ago and ask to do it again.
-Is a very snuggly boy
-Can say a few of his friends names including: Luca, Dean, Erin, and tires to say Kellen, but isn't very good at it yet.
-Has a love of frozen yogurt, just like his mama. Actually, he enjoys the fruit I put on it more and will pick it all off :)
-Still talks about Gigi all the time, even though it's been almost a month since he last saw her.
-Loves to play peek-a-boo with anything. One of his favorite spots is to get behind the couch cushions.
-Can draw a pretty decent circle.
-Knows how to "hike"
-Can now name a soccer ball, basketball, and football.
-Is such a hilarious kid. He always has us laughing.
