Doesn't this just make you smile? And laugh out loud, a little?! This guy has blessed our lives for a little over 15 months now. He's become very clingy to his mama...I've learned to make supper with one hand; Cohen on my hip. (Haven't figured out how to do dishes one handed, yet). He has amazing rhythem...and seems to prefer the Black Eyed Peas, although we mostly listen to country. He is a new walker- in the past few weeks. He's a little devil when I try to shop with him....usually the trip end with tears, and they aren't his! And he has learned just how to get back at his big sister. Hair pulling is a preference, but he has this new (awful) scream- and it really gets to her...and me. He's "grrrr-ing" and "vrrroooming" and building towers with blocks. He has also done quite a lot of growing since his 12 month check-up. In fact, we had to double check his height. And then, his doctor almost didn't believe it. He went from the 30th percentile to the 80th percentile in height! I knew he grew- because I had to buy ALL new clothes for him. His little noggin is still almost off the charts- but he's much more proportioned now. This is definitely a fun age.
Ella and I made valentine's decorations today. We punched out hearts and the word "Love" to hang on branches in the kitchen. Ella is finally at the age where she is actually helpful when doing projects! She punched the holes in the hearts and cut each piece of string as I tied them on the branches. How fun! I'm looking forward to doing more projects that she can take part in...so often she just watches or gets herself in to trouble! ....And then we stung paper heart doilies to hang from the windows- those were completely Ella's idea!
