1.5 Years

August was hot! And humid. You're growing pretty fast, mentally and physically. This month it seemed like you have really been able to process a lot of different things that we say to you. "Hold this." "Can I have that?" "Let's take a bath!" "Are you ready to eat?" We say these things to you and it's beginning to feel less like talking to ourselves. You say "Hot" and "Out" and "Eyes" and you almost say "Down." You can make some appropriate noises too, you make car noises with the car toys, and you emulate the DING when your food has heated up. You're taking an interest in other children as well, so I hope to have a chance to get you playing with some. We met with Doug and Cindy and Adrian for breakfast the other weekend, and you played with Adrian. Your Grandma says you like to play with the other children at the park as well. We may find some part-time daycare for you, or possibly some structured activity to get you socializing and to give your grandparents a break. Who knows, we'll have to find the right thing. We heard you're going to have another cousin - Aunt Erin is pregnant again. It's a boy, and he's due right before Christmas.

Here's some pictures... - Dad
