18 Months

18 Months!  Really!?!  So crazy that MY little boy is 18 months.  He has grown up so much in the last couple months.  He has gotten taller in the last week.  He has been talking A LOT in the last couple days.  My brother is always teasing Baine about talking.  He always asks him when he is going to talk.  He has always said a few words at home.  Not in public though.  He's mute in public.  So I went out to my brothers house the other night and Baine said light, ball, and Molly.  I think Kade was impressed.  :)  So I don't know how the talking usually works but for Baine, he is trying to say everything now it seems.  When he says playdough or backyardigans you can't even understand what he is saying.  I can but that's because I'm with him all day.  He says 1 min.  Not minute.  Min.  He even puts his finger up.  If you ask him how old he is he'll just stare at you like your stupid.  He asks where Daddy and Zeus are everyday, all day.  His favorite toys are his guns and bullets and he'll tell you all about them.  He likes to shoot them but mostly he loves to load the gun.  He eats everything.  We went through a picky stage for a month or so but now he just doesn't care.  As long as he's full he is happy.  His favorite snack is granola bars and fishys.  Together or separate he doesn't care.  Favorite meal, mac n' cheese.  Favorite drink, well he doesn't seem to care.  Water, milk, juice, whatever.

The other day we walked down to the pond to see the fishes.  Even though they aren't there right now.  It took everything and anything I could think of to get him back to the house because he did not want to come.  I finally got him back.  We were playing outside and I came in to get a drink walked back out and he was headed to see the fish again.  Apparently he knew he wasn't supposed to go by himself since he was running.

Also his running needs some help.  He only swings one arm.  Please bless he really didn't get stuck with my athletic abilities.  If so I'm sorry bud.

I love milestones and I'm loving this age.  He is so fun right now.  He is our entertainment.  Happy 18 months!
