Wild Man

This is why we call him "wild man". Do girls do act like this???

14 months and favorite stair.

14 months and loving climbing, walking and getting into anything he shouldn't be. His vocabulary; mama, dada, dog, uh oh and.........no, no, no, no, no! Even though it sounds more like na, na, na, na, na in a french accent. He also likes to do this fake laugh, so he will do something he thinks is funny and burst into a fake laugh. He is still a good eater. He loves fruit, veggies and anything he can use to make a big mess of our kitchen. Everyday brings a new adventure and more fun with our sweet little man!

Stair fun before naptime

Naptime I can't believe how big he is getting!

DC 1...

Look who learned how to drive a boat at his 1st Sea Fair in Seattle! R loved the boat and really loves water. Mom loved that it was a contained area she didn't have to worry about her baby getting into things he shouldn't in our host's non-child proof house. All mother's of toddlers know the stress it is being in a non-child proof house, especially one near water. Regardless it was a wonderful Sea Fair weekend and we can't wait for future ones to come where hopefully R will be riding a wakeboard as well as his dada!

Where I go to escape the heat...

and play in the sand.

Progression...

R has been progressing fast with his new found skill! I can't get enough of his "old man" shuffle!

Favorite stair

...to bounce on

Silly boy.

It always amazes me the simple things that will occupy a child's time. The other day R played with an empty brownie box for about 30 minutes, today it was the plastic bin I bought to pack away more of his clothes. He crawled in & out of it all afternoon. We were also have a bit of an annoying teething day and after he used me as a chew toy more than once I pulled out trusty Sophie. Thank goodness he still loves her, the bruises & bite marks on my arm/legs are getting a little old. I love this picture of him, it captures this afternoon perfectly. xoxo
