15 Months Old

Whit is so much fun these days!  He had a bit of a rough patch last month after fighting a flu bug, but once we got through that he went back to his old self:)  Last week marked 15 months of his little life and I wanted to share some of his accomplishments and funny moments...

• Talking...Whit can say "all done, doggy, yah, dada, mmmmah (mama I think!)
• Skills...since learning to walk, Whit has become very comfortable moving around on his own.  He can walk, run, dance and go forward or backward.  He is also able to get up the stairs-with supervision:)
• Toys...Whit is starting to figure out how things work...how to play with his toys, "read" books, open and shut doors, shoot baskets...it's so fun to watch him figure things out!
• Sense of Humor...Whit loves to laugh-and we love to hear him laugh!  He plays hide and seek, really enjoys Lucy's kisses, jumps/falls on the couch cushions, pretends to sleep on the pillows then laughs how clever he is, and is SUPER ticklish-just like his momma!  
• Dee-Dee-Dah...this one deserves it's own bullet, because we hear it pretty much every day!  He has this little rhythm down pat and loves to change it up.  Sometimes it's dee dah-dee dee dah, dee dee-dah-dee dee dah...many variations, but the same two syllables over and over.  So far it hasn't gotten old and it's a great source of entertainment in the car!
• Music...what a shock-our son likes music:)  If we play music while he's awake, he always dances or bobs his head to the beat.  The other day he ran to the office where the music was playing and started nodding his head to the beat, then when the music switched to strings and woodwinds he switched his nodding to shaking his head no-to the beat!  CRAZY!  Earlier in the week he matched pitch to one of his toys.  It amazes me every time he shows musical ability.  I hope he continues to enjoy music as much as we do!

I think I mentioned all the big things for now...just wanted to get that in before another month went by!  Here are a few of my favorite pictures of him lately.

On a separate note-last weekend was our church's first ever Impact Gala.  It was a great night of celebration for all God has done at The Village Christian Church!  We are so blessed to be a part of this church and have made some wonderful friends there-and of course we love getting to see Nate, Rachelle and the boys every week:)  Here are a few pictures from the night!
