18 Months Old

Oh, my dear sweet Little Bear.  I can't believe you're officially 1 1/2 years old.  Time just keeps ticking away and you keep growing and learning.  You're really into doing what YOU want to do.  And, if Momma Bear or Papa Bear have a different idea, you get really upset right away.  You can open certain doors, close and lock all doors (I've had to get the push lock to get you out of a room already), you're starting to climb stairs like a little man, you don't like to be cooped up in the stroller too long, and you continue to LOVE the outside.  In fact, your favorite word right now is, "outside."  You have been rather picky with your food lately and this Momma Bear is having a hard time getting you to eat healthy foods.  Hopefully its just a phase.  I'm wondering if you're now starting to figure out that things will be changing and Little Cub will be here soon.  You got to hear Little Cub's heart beat at mommy's OB appointment this morning.  I think you smiled.  I pray for you constantly that you will always have the joy of the LORD and peace that comes only from Him.  Momma Bear and Papa Bear love you so much!

you don't really like stickers stuck to you

Here's your attitude coming out - you wanted the wet shirt off

You like phones and even hold it to your ear and say, "hi"

In our back yard heading to our neighbors

going through the gate

cleaning the garden with the swiffer mop handle

Visiting our neighbor "Grandma T" and having a snack

Such a handsome little guy

You really liked the hose hanging from the tree

Silly face
