Graham is fifteen months old today! He has been growing and changing so much over the past few months, it is hard to keep up with all of the milestones. One thing that is consistent is that he is always moving and always keeping me on my toes! This little guy isn't afraid of anything and he is FAST! I literally can't turn my eyes for a second or else I look back to find him standing on the coffee table about to jump, halfway up a ladder at the park, or inches away from the street. He's a wild one and a happy one and we are just so thankful that God has entrusted him to us.
Graham's language has simply exploded over the past couple of months! He went from saying two or three words to saying so many that I've lost count. Some that I can think of off the top of my head: baby, hi, cracker, thank you (tankoo), I love you, banana, cheese (for pictures), down (as a command, to Baker :)), Grandad, BB, Gigi, Papa, Papo, Mumo, and Jack.
He's also loving to make animal sounds. He makes the funniest noise in an attempt to snort like a pig! He knows that cows say moo, dogs say ruff, and horses say neigh.
He likes to sing along to the song, The Wheels on the Bus, and do the motions. It is very cute! He just sings, "Round and round and round and round...."
He is now tall enough and smart enough to open all of the doors in our house. This has caused some near disasterous events, but we've gotten into the habit of making sure all doors are locked at all times now!
He likes to look at books. Usually he just opens his book and points to the baby, "BABY!!!!" and closes it, but we're working on it!
He is becoming even more attached to his blue blankie and likes to snuggle it whenever he slows down long enough to do so.
I'm not exactly proud of this one, but he loves TV. Jack has been obsessed with Toy Story 2 and Graham is a fan as well. We limit it of course, but that silly guy would sit there all day if he could!
He is beginning to work on becoming a two year old in the sense that he likes to throw fits when he doesn't get his way. I think being the baby of the house, he has been sliiiiiiiiiightly spoiled so we are working on using words and signs as opposed to whining. He does well when he knows the word for what he wants, but he has a bit of a temper when we don't give it to him immediately!
He's a climber! I'm praying we can keep him in the crib for awhile but I'm scared that it won't be long before he "breaks out."
He is just so sweet. Tonight I was rocking him and singing songs. He just looked at me with a sweet smile and said, "hi!" I said "hi" and he just died laughing. We repeated that for awhile (I'm sure he was trying to distract me so that I would forget that it was bedtime) and then I said, "okay, time for night night" and he said, "bye-bye!" Such a little angel. I love him!
