16 months

Wow - I am getting way behind on the blog.  We just got back from a very fun vacation so I'll post more about that later....but I've got to get caught up on James.  I know you are all dying to know what has changed since last month.  Unfortunately it's not much but we do have a few things to report.

James 4th of July model shot.

This little guy has pooped in the potty.
Finally has one front tooth and it looks like maybe the other one will make an appearance sometime this year.  (we are slow teeth growers)
He is saying all kinds of words.
He is back on the binky - rats!  We will begin weening again.
He walks backwards.
He LOVES mom (me) - Like MAJOR LOVE.  I get hugs and kisses and lately I'm the only one he wants.  Luckily I'm usually the only one around.  It works out well for him.  It's becoming exhausting for me.
We now have to do some Curious George weening.
He LOVES LOVES hats.  We lost his favorite hat on the vacation....picked up a new one and James likes that one too (whew).
He loves giving hugs and kisses to kids his size or smaller.
He is SOOOO independent and wants to do his own thing - his way.  This has resulted in lots of tears.

 See - anything can be a hat!

 Doing his own thing.
