14 Months (& 4 days)

I can't believe how fast time is going. Max is all over the place. He is walking everywhere and when he sees an open area where he knows that he isn't suppose to be he walks even faster and even sometimes does a little run so he can get there.

Max is starting to talk. He can say Mama, Dada, Yes, and Yeah. He can wave and clap on command and is learning not to do something when we tell him No. He loves to play in the dogs bowls, eat their food and play in their water. It is one of my favorite things to clean up (she says sarcastically).

Max's favorite shows are anything Elmo, Sesame Street, Bob the Builder, Mickey's Playhouse, and Thomas the Train (Tank). Depending on the show he could sit there for an hour and watch whatever you put on. He is really into pushing his toys around on the floor. The fact that some toys do not have wheels on them doesn't matter to him. Max likes to put stuff in things and take them out. For example our recliner has a flip-up arm rest and Max likes to put his toys, juice cup, dog toys, pretty much anything in there. He does the same with the drawers in the kitchen. His favorite thing to take out of the drawer is the saran wrap.

Max is also a big fan of closing things. He likes to close the doors on almost anything, the top of the wipes container, the door to the bathroom, the lid to the diaper dispenser, the frig door, etc. Tim is like this, everything has to be closed, it is kinda funny. Max has about 12 teeth, he is still missing about 4 but I think they are coming in now. He is a good eater and has a banana just about every morning for breakfast. Lunch is more like a big snack, and dinner can be anything from pasta to chicken nuggets. He is a fan of applesauce and really is starting to like fruit.

Clothes wise he is pretty much out of 12 month pants and the 18 month pants fit him just right now. Glad we have lots of summer clothes already for him. He can wear a 2T top, depending on the brand but most of the stuff that is fitting him now is 18-24 months.

My boy is growing fast. I was looking at video of him from just this past summer and I can't believe how big he has gotten. Time flies when you're having fun.
