Almost 20 Months and Baby on the Way

Wright is almost 20 months 0ld, I can't believe how close to 2 that is! We are so excited that he is going to be a big brother, but I have to say it is really hard to imagine loving ANYONE like I love him! I think the whole pregnancy thing is making me more emotional about him growing up, I will catch myself looking at him and thinking, please don't get big too fast!

Anyways, here are some cute things he has been doing recently.

- He runs around the house and says "See Dow" all the time which we finally discovered meant "Lucy Dog". She is still his favorite playmate.
- He says and sings his ABC's. I would say he knows about 8 letters total but he at least knows what order they come in the alphabet. He also knows about 5 numbers from 1-10 and when we count, he chimes in when we get to 1, 2, 5, 9 and 10.
- He has a great sense of direction. When we get near our house, he starts saying "house, house". When we drive down Royal by my mom's he says "Mimi house" and when we keep going on Royal, he says "Max, Yuuuuke".
- We started swim lessons and he can hold his breath for 6-7 seconds. He loves going under water and jumping to me from the side. He hates going to the teacher and floating on his back!
- He is obsessed with counting to three before he does anything...jumping off the stair, throwing himself on Lucy's dog bed, getting out of the bath or high chair, jumping into the pool, etc. His counting is hysterical, he says something like "Bah, two, weeeeeeeeeee".
- He is into babies and loves to check them out wherever we go. And whether it is one or three, he says "babies".
- He sings along to music in the car and acts out songs with motions. He loves "This little light of mine", holding his candle and blowing it out. He also loves "5 little monkeys", especially the part where you say "No more monkeys jumping on the bed". He gets this angry voice and points his finger saying "dah do bah boo dah doo da" (or something like that).
- He is still a big dancer and loves getting down to any music.
- He is still way too into tv. He says "show" a hundred times a day. And when he watches the shows, he knows the songs and dances. The other day he was watching Blues Clues and the guy said "Our handy dandy..." and then paused for the kid watching to answer and Wright screams "nobook" (aka notebook). I could not tell if that was smart or just plain sad that he watches tv so much!
- And Brendan wants to add that he loves watching baseball with his dad. He says "ball" or "bayball" when its on (which is a lot!)
