"Uh Oh"....

18 months is here and boy has it brought about so many new things so quickly! He just seems so much more content and not getting nearly as tired which is helping him to last through the day better and get lots more playtime!

Complete and Total Satisfaction:

• Dirt! Shovel! Bucket!
• Bugs, Birds and Bees! He LOVES wildlife and will "happy scream" when he sees anything that is living! He will actually use his words or signs on many of the creatures. For instance, when he sees any type of bug or spider he does the spider that we do on the song "Itsy Bitsy Spider". So smart!
• Bee!! So my nature lover, Edward, of course would not only find a bee but pick it up and be super excited about his new find! And not only did this happen once, it's happened twice in the last week....
• Squirrel at the park adventure--We always try and notice all the wildlife and nature that we can, from falling leaves and pine cones to lizards and squirrels. So we were playing at the park last week and I noticed a squirrel and said "look Edward" and he of course went running after it, I figured the squirrel would jump on a tree and scurry up it, but instead he decided to taunt Edward from tree to ground until we were all about to take an adventure in the nearby creek. Edward would have kept chasing that squirrel til day's end!
• Light reflecting--Since Edward is noticing so much more, he has been seeing the light come in from windows at different angles and realizing that it can change when he steps to the side or in front of it.
• "Uh oh"--Has become his new favorite word, sometimes it's really an "Uh oh" and sometimes it's a "no, no" but to him it seems to all be the same....
• Sweet moments of love--When Edward woke from his nap, he snuggled with me for about 10 minutes, then peeked over to "Max's corner" and saw him and got up and went to snuggle with Max. Gotta love it!
