Vale is 18 months old! Where has the time gone!???

 Vale turned 18 months on Saturday!

Crazy how time flies!!!

He is a total ham... 

Any always eating... 

He likes to search under his high chair for leftovers... 

Yup found some!

He's deadly with a plastic sword...

'I'll even get ya with my eyes closed!!! Let me at'em let me at'em!'

Vale also LOVES music!!!  He dances and plays anything that will make noise.

He's also quite a singer!

(insert crooner voice) 'L is for the way you look at me...'

Sometimes it gets him a little bit more attention and affection than desired... :)

He's a sweet sweet boy!

And we all love him very much!

He runs like a champ

Does stairs like a pro (although he did fall down them head over feet today... but...)

Although he words aren't super clear he does communicate very well

He loves to sing the song 'trust and obey'

He likes anything 'cheese' flavored

He really likes to have clothing on... he will bring me random shirts from the dirty clothes wanting me to put them on him... 

He likes to put on peoples shoes. :)  He finds a match then wants them on your feet... like now.

Has no fear of water or the pool.  Puts his face right into the bath or pool and comes up smiling.

He loves to climb on everything... pray for him physical safety!!!

He can say/point out your and his own nose, eyes, mouth, ears and hair.

He's pretty good about pooping on the potty... in the last 2 months he's only gone once in his diaper.

He sleeps very well still taking a bottle before bed and using his 'beba' (paci) for sleep time only.

He naps still during the day for about 2 hours in the AM.

His favorite movie is Tangled... hahaha he really likes the horse and gets excited when he comes on screen.

He wants to be a big boy like his brother... anything Connor does, Vale wants to do too.

He's definitely starting to understand consequences.  We only have to threaten discipline now and he understands.

He does pretty good in time out! (probably b/c he's watched Connor A LOT in timeout :))  He sits quietly with his hands on his knees until we tell him he can get down.  Then, since he doesn't verbalize sorry yet, he always goes and gives you a hug and a kiss to say sorry.

He is a lover!!  He loves hugs and snuggles!!  Sweet sweet spirit and very sensitive.  It's adorable!

We love him very much and are soooooo blessed by Vale!!!

We go to his 18 month check up Monday so I'll post his physical stats in an update :)

My little peanut is growing!!! :)
