It feels like over night my little baby turned into a little boy! It is very bitter sweet, but watching him grow and become his own little person has been the greatest of blessings! This little boy is so special we just can't get enough of him! Here are some facts about Ford at 17 months:
*He is hilarious and loves to be the center of attention with all eyes on him!
*He is very charming and loves to flirt especially with cute girls!
*He is almost always happy and smiling! He has the best laugh and it is very easy to get him to laugh!
*He is very very ticklish! Especially under his chin and on his feet!
*He is very expressive! He has tons of facial expressions and lots of words and hand gestures! We don't know what most of his words are, but he certainly does!
*He loves Cooper and climbs all over him. Coop is a good sport and lets Ford do whatever he wants!
*He says Mama, Dada, car, truck, wa wa, ba ba, uppppp, down, cookie, open it (not prounced that clearly but close)I unt gat (I want that), I go, ball, ohhh kay, baby, uh-ohhh, duck, and let's not forget no no and noooooo!
*He holds his hands up and says "hap" when he wants to know what happened!
*He loves to be outside no matter what the temperature. Being cold doesn't bother him at all!
*He LOVES trucks, cars, tractors and anything else with wheels. He would love it if I just let him play in a parking lot! He is always making truck noises!
*He LOVES watching Curious George and only Curious George on the iPad!
*He loves his blankie and rubbing the corners!
*He loves buttons almost as much as he like trucks, and he loves to sit in the driver seat of our car and push all the buttons, turn the steering wheel and make car sounds!
*He is still a terrible eater and literally only eats yogurt, cheese, grapes, saltines and oreos. He sometimes will eat mac-n-cheese and chicken nuggets. He does love milk, thank goodness!
*The only way we can get him to eat all his food is to turn on Curious George and then he goes into a "monkey trance" and then we can shovel in the rest of the food!
*He is such a well behaved child! He is a good listener and if I tell him to not do something he doesn't do it! I just pray this continues on into the terrible 2's! If I do ever have to disciple him he comes straight to me and kisses me afterward! I'm not sure if it's an apology or a little manipulation!
*He walks up to things he's not supposed to touch and says "no no"!
*He is SOOOOOO sweet and loving. He loves to cuddle, kiss and hug, and is quite the Mama's boy!
*He plays so well with other kids and is so gentle and kind!
*He has all four of his molars in without us even noticing!! I thought I saw one and then today I looked and all four were in!
Here is our sweet boy at 17 months!
