Grantham: 18 months

This marks the wonderful half birthday of our little guy! I'm not sure how a year and a half has passed, but I certainly can't imagine our life without this bundle of energy and happiness!

Sweet Grantham,
I feel that first and foremost, I owe you an apology. The apology that I suppose all mommies make to their second child. You see...with Garrity, we sat around and kind of watched and waited for her to start doing things or hitting milestones etc. With you, we realized early on that you were not one to wait around and you were ready to hit the road running! This is exactly what we've done! I've been lax with the blogging bit, BUT I've kept your baby book 100% up to par ( I did not do this with Garrity so much...live and learn!?)  It seems that we've been so crazy busy since the stork dropped you into our world! So...while I may not have documented online when you got your third tooth...or when you started jumping at 15 months...but we've been living the life! You've done more in your 18 months than most people do in their entire childhood! You've ticked off major travel destinations--Disney World and Hawaii, and have been on more flights than most people will ever take...eight to be exact! You've frequented Royals' games, numerous overnight stays in KC, Silver Dollar City more times than I can count! You've lived a super full and fun 18 months...even if it has meant that mommy has been too busy living to sit down and document the fun on the blog ---I hereby promise to do better...even if it's only a few lines!
You weren't as excited to meet Mickey as you will be the next time around :)
So...where does this 18th month find you?

Well, you have been walking since your 9th month, you have cut all of your teeth with the exception of your eye teeth.

You can jump with both feet catching air!

You officially own your first pair of AIR JORDAN'S!

You loved baths until about a month ago...now you love them once you get in, as long as I'm not washing your hair :)

You love ice cream, hot dogs, and chicken nuggets(especially from McDonalds!)

You are moderately easy to get to sleep...two full 9 oz bottles of milk, and you are out! You sleep in your crib for the first 4 hours or so and then finish the night in bed with mommy and daddy.

You can say lots of words...but your faves are:
GOLF CART
momma
dada
sissy
wawa
maaah (milk)
nono
Gowah
Pat
Madelyn
Mouse
Bubble
