you...

...have a bit of a cold (we think it might be RSV) and your second year molars are coming in. BUT in spite of all that, you still have that twinkle in your eye we love so much, so it's okay with us.

...require 18 month footed sleepers and size 5 diapers at night.
...talk A LOT! some of your favorite words to say right now are: "uh-cul" (= uncle), "ohn cul" (=phone call), "Bill" and "mail".
...LOVE "mah nah" (=music)! you eat well at mealtime if your special CD is on (123 Favorite Kids Songs).
...will ask daddy "mor cah" (while signing more) whenever you see him sitting at his desk.
...still need A LOT of work with feeding yourself with utensils, but i'm confident it will come, ONE DAY!
...give closed mouth kisses
...have been known to wake up saying "yee haw"
...could listen to Pop Goes the Weasel on repeat and never tire of it.
...are SO CLOSE to running--you are SO FAST these days!

...HATE walking holding hands! you want to go where you want to go when you want to, but we're still working on this skill!

...are also working on following the direction "come here". if you don't comply by the time i get to three, i carry you until you have a quiet voice and then we try again. lately, you've been complying on one while we are out in public!
...will empty EVERY SINGLE CABINET in the kitchen if we let you! we bought you your own kitchen to cut down on the mess, but it hasn't worked out exactly like we'd hoped.

...play so well by yourself these days it makes mommy feel unneeded. now mommy has to ask YOU if you want to read books. i guess i shouldn't complain, i like reading a half a dozen books a day instead of 57! ;)
...are a pro at walking on your tiptoes and knees!
...could use a haircut every three weeks--just like your daddy!
...LOVE pizza--margarita, pear gorgonzola, vegetable, buffalo mozzarella and pesto...

...nap once a day for less than 2 hours and sleep from 8:30ish to 7:30ish each night.
...hum and sway to Scarborough Fair on your favorite CD
...and...
...have somehow discovered who Elmo is and really seem to like him! but he hasn't replaced your love for lawnmowers ("mah mah mah"), trucks, cars and airplanes!
