Hutson 16 months!

Seriously where did the time go. My little baby is looking more like a little boy every day. 16 months is so much fun! He is so curious, and his mind is like a sponge.

This month he has learned to...
- Swim in the pool- I use the term swim very loosely, as he basically just floats in his puddle jumper (awesome invention.) But, he holds his head up all by himself, closes his mouth, and does butterfly kicks. Yup, I have a future swimmer. 
- When reading "Pat the Bunny" he will wave bye before I read the page that says to wave bye.  Such a proud parent moment and confirms all thoughts of reading to you children early. 
- He goes down the stairs on his tummy.
- Sits down on your lap when your on the floor. (Much better than splatting in your lap and you having to turn in around.
-He has his own shelf in the pantry, and he has learned how to get the goldfish off the shelf. It is so funny to see him walking around with a box of goldfish nearly the size of him.
- Put your shoes on for you. He's my little Prince Charming. Does the slipper fit?

His new fascinations...
-Trains! He loves his new train track.
- Trucks and cars, okay so he liked them before, but know we are on a whole new level.
- That we have a fan in every room now. He seriously will just walk from one room to another and point. 
- Sitting in chairs
-The library
- Grammy- not a new fascination, but he loves her so much! I don't know what I would have done without her help this month.
- Not the beach, we went to the beach in early June with friends, and it rained just about the whole time. We ran on the beach for an hour one morning before the rain returned, but Hutson still is not a fan of sand.

Favorite foods
- Turkey
-soy yogurt
-peas
-corn
-Watermelon
-Pineapple

New Words
- See
-He makes the chuga chuga sound for a choo choo.
- He goes grrrrrr for the car noise
