Yes, I said 17 months. Where did the time go?!?! I have no idea, but we're having fun.
Favorite Activity - Reading. He loves it and nothing makes me happier when he grabs a book and backs himself up to sit in my lap to read him a book. So cute, and the closest thing I get to snuggle time. We have a set of picture books and he loves to look at them and point everything out. Where's the apple, dolly, doggie, feet, baby, wheelbarrow, leaf, birdie, etc.? He'll show you.
Favorite Book - It's a tie! The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Goodnight Moon. Just like the picture books, he can point everything out in them. Caterpillar, cheese, and pickle are the favorites in the Caterpillar book and the mouse, bunny, zapatos (shoes) and cow are the favorites in Goodnight Moon.
Favorite Song - The ABCs! The only way I can get Landon washed in the bathtub with minimal to no whining (he'd rather blow bubbles and play with his squirting fish toy, can't say I blame him) is if we sing the ABCs. He claps after it's over and then signs for more.
Favorite Toy - Any ride on toy. He loves his car that the Easter Bunny brought him, his firetruck from Uncle Erik and his tractor that Grandma Cathy got for him.
Favorite Park Activity - Steering wheels, he LOVES steering wheels. He'll seek out any steering wheel on the play structure and spend forever "driving" himself around and honking the horn (even if there's not one). Occasionally he'll go down the slide or want to go on the swings, but he'd be perfectly happy hanging out by the steering wheel the entire time. If redirected he always finds himself back there.
Favorite Food - Ravioli. Hands down. My little carb hound will scarf them down in no time flat. He loves the pasta, the filling and the sauce. If his veggies are bathed in pasta sauce they're good as gone. The other night for dinner he polished off eight ravioli, a good quarter cup of veggies, and half a banana. He must be going through a growth spurt, I don't know where he put it all!
Favorite Word - Doggie. Doggies are everywhere! Cody and Jake are always around, and he's always reminding us of them. In the car when he sees someone walking he'll exclaim, "doggie!" Even if they don't have one. In pictures, in books, when he hears one barking. Doggie, doggie, doggie! If you ask him what a doggie says Landon will kick his feet out and say, "woof woof."
