20 Month Tidbits

- He is saying new things every day. Last night out of nowhere, he said "Cookies, yum yum yum" like Cookie Monster on Sesame Street.
- He loves Dora the Explorer and begs to watch it everyday. "Dora, Boots, Dora, Boots."
- He can count to 10 on his own, but his favorite part by far is "8, 9, 10, wheeeeeeee!"
- He is a pretty good eater. He will eat a sandwich with mayo, mustard and pickles. On that note, he LOVES pickles.
- Just this week, he has started eating a lot less overall. At dinner, he only seems to want a few bites before he wants "out, out please".
- Not always, but sometimes, he will take initiative and clean up his toys on his own without me even asking. This is VERY impressive. Last night, he picked up all his books after we read and went to put them on the shelf.
- If I tell him, he better stop doing something or he is going to get a spanking, he starts hitting his own leg. This is not so good...
- When he says "bye bye", he has now added "yater" to it (later :) I guess I say that a lot.
- When he doesn't like the music I am playing in the car, he will scream "Go way, go way!" I am trying to broaden his music horizons and teach him that there is much better stuff than "Wee Sing Animals" out there.
- He loves looking through photo albums and can name pretty much everyone in our family. He especially loves looking at his own baby pictures.
- In the pool, his favorite thing to do is stand on the steps and repeatedly put his head under water.
