20 Months Old

William turned 20 months old 2 days ago (Christmas Day)! These monthly posts are beginning to seem realllly repetitive. I might as well keep going until he's 2 though! As usual, it doesn't seem like a ton has changed since last month. He now calls me "Mommy" and Grant "Daddy" after only saying "mama" and "dada" up until this point. He talks to himself in complete gibberish all.the.time. He's not saying any short phrases besides "here you go" when he hands us his sippy cup, a toy he's no longer interested in, etc... He says "no" to pretty much every question but if his response is yes he nods his head.

I'm pretty sure his 2 year molars have come through but I can't get a good look back there. He's been drooling a ton and his hands have constantly been in his mouth.

He can identify all of the primary colors and some shapes. He says the number 2 over and over, especially when we go up and down the stairs because I usually count as we go.

 These pics are from our flight to TX over Thanksgiving. He loved reading about the latest hot items in Sky Mall magazine.  I soaked up some very rare snuggles the remainder of the flight. I didn't care that my arm was completely numb for 2 straight hours ;)

           

This is how one entertains a toddler in an airport: give child massive amounts of sugar, let them play in wheelchairs, allow them to lick anything in sight, and allow to take off shoes.

Christmas tree shopping on the most freezing day of the year!

I took him to the pediatrician after 2 straight weeks of a runny nose and not eating great. He was put on an antibiotic for a sinus infection. It quickly cleared everything up!

I couldn't help myself.

Shockingly, he was only interested in the tree and ornaments the first couple of days and after that never touched it :) I think he only broke 3 cheap ornaments the entire time it was up!

I did some Christmas shopping at World Market one day and he immediately eyed this massive rubber ducky. I thought we'd have to leave with a $15 duck. Thankfully, he lost interest right before we left.

He's really taken an interest in coloring/scribbling. I love that little focused face!!
