luke is 20 months old! 6.6.11

"hi, i'm luke and i'm 20 months old!" that makes me one summer away from turning 2! whoa!


things luke is doing at 20 months:
- says "hi" and "bye" very clearly
- says "yeah" and "no" and means it when we ask him questions
- says every color is "boo" when we ask him "what color is this?"
- loves spending time outside and asks to go "side" first thing upon waking up
- holds our hands and drags us everywhere he wants to go
- is still rear facing in his car seat (we've adopted the extended rear facing method and hope to keep him rear facing until he's 2ish)
- still loves to eat raisins
- loves pickles
- dips his hotdog in mustard :)
- new words include saying his version of "please" while also doing the sign. melt your heart!
- tugs on his ear when he wants to watch sesame street (eric taught him this "sign")
- still loves to suck his thumb
- while at the park luke loves to climb on all the equipment, go down all the slides (big and little), play in the dirt, watch the leaves do their "helicopter" thing, play basketball, write with sidewalk chalk, bounce up and down on the teeter-totter
- is constantly red-faced and sweaty at the park when it is a super hot day
- loves forehead to forehead kisses - giving and receiving
- loves wagon rides
- enjoys playing in the bathtub during "water play" our new term for a bath during the heat of summer
- asks people to sit down by pointing to the couch, chair, etc.
- likes sesame street music videos (adam sandler, jason mraz, feist, will.i.am and "i love my hair")
- loves babies and makes the sign for baby while saying "baby"
- is very tickle-ish like his momma and says "no" with a smile on his face when you tickle his belly, neck or feet
- and still loves flags (zaza) and can't get enough of them

can't wait to see what you have in store for us over this next month luke! we love you!!
