19 months!

Dear Caydin,

19 months, can it be? Only 5 more months until you turn 2!

Scary thought.

Before I know it, you'll be reading these silly blog notes on your own and taking your own pictures! Another scary thought.

You are a ton of fun right now, always going-going-going, with no time for naps or eating! We still make you nap though and usually we can get you to nap twice a day! Food... well, you don't really care for it! You love the same things you loved last month and have no desire to try anything new. You must of gotten that trait from me!

You are totally diggin' your new basketball hoop this month and love your cars, like always. Your new favorite place to play is in the real car! You could pretend to drive and pretend to play with the radio buttons all day if we let you! When we try to take you out of the car, you throw the biggest tantrum ever! You cry and scream and throw yourself in the grass. When that doesn't work, you try to run down the street... but you only get to the next houses driveway before you turn around to see where we are and then come back. :)

It's amazing to see how determined you are to do something! You are a very strong and smart little guy! You love to laugh, look at books, and be chased!

You talk non-stop all day and are adding in a ton of new sounds. You still do mostly "toddler-talk" but it's beginning to make more sense! We understand when you say "Whats that?" and "Here it is" and you know that a horse and a cow make a noise (though you don't always say the right noise!) You babble from the minute you get into a store to the middle you leave and always make sure to say "hello" and "goodbye" to fellow shoppers!

You are growing out of your 18 month jeans because you are so tall (not because of weight) but still wear 18 month shorts and tops! You wear size 5 diapers at night and size 4 diapers during the day! You wear size 6 and 7 shoes -- Mr. Big Feet!!!

We love you!

Love, Mom
