14 Months

LJ is 14 months old today.  He's all kinds of happy, silly, funny, loud, busy, crazy, into everything fun! He answers to LJ (his real name), Baby and Stinker, and he is a busy, BUSY boy!  LJ doesn't have many (or any?) words yet, although, he does say, "Dada" and makes a sound for a car (something like vroom), he also makes a sound like "quack, quack, quack" when he's making the sign for duck. He signs: more, all done, please, thank you, eat, milk, tubby, bird, duck, brush teeth, fan, and book.  Oh, and he's also made up his own sign for "paci" because he's slightly addicted to his pacifier which looks a lot like the sign for 'eat'.  If you ask him a question, he nods his head yes, whether he wants whatever you're asking him about or not. He loves to brush his hair and his teeth but only if he can do it by himself!  He can identify his hair and toes (not sure why he has those two down) and if you ask him to 'go find Leo' (his stuffed lion from the San Diego Zoo), he will!
 

(he loves his paci, but thankfully you can still see his smile in his eyes and his dimples!)

The year of the baby might be over, but toddler-hood, it's in full swing!
