A Year and a Half!

Our sweet little man is 18 months old today! I just can't believe it, the time has flown by! We are so very thankful for such a sweet little guy, he is just something else. He knows most of his body parts and can point to them. He runs around like a wild child, climbs on the furniture, takes daddy's hat off and puts it on his own head. Rides around on his little Power Wheels (not currently "powered") front loader that "Uncle" Frank gave him. He loves the barn kitties, horses and dogs. He knows his animal sounds and makes truck noises when they drive by. He knows some sign language, like please, thank you, more, eat, milk, bird, up, and probably more I can't think of right now...

Jimmy with Daddy's safety glasses on and 2 pacifiers in his mouth, he has such a great sense of humor!

He doesn't say many words but sure knows what they mean. If you tell him something, he usually knows what you are saying. The words he does say are momma, dadda, yeah, no, "da" for dog and "kee" or "ca" for kitty. I am sure there are more, but I can't decipher them lol. He loves to be outside and just explore, finding rocks or flowers and carrying around one in each fist until you pry it out. He loves to go down the slide and play in his sandbox.

"I been watching you, dad ain't that cool, I'm your buckaroo, I wanna be like you..."

He loves to play ball and play with his tool bench on the porch. He even takes time out of his "busy schedule" to come sit by mommy on the couch and read his books. He loves his books! Our little Jimmy is growing up right before our eyes. Before we know it he will be going off to kindergarten and then graduating from high school! We love our sweet little man SO very much and we thank God for our precious gift every day!
