Actually, 18.5 months. Sheesh, time will not slow down!
Henry makes sure we are never bored. From humor - making us laugh with his random outbursts of gibber jabber - to horror - climbing onto the dining room table and dancing - he is a constant source of entertainment at our house. He certainly gets a look in his eyes that signals that he is about to go looking for trouble, and boy is he ever good at finding it.
But he is also still my snuggly, snuggly little boy. He gives the best hugs - just wrapping his arms tight around your neck and totally relaxing his whole body into you. Today he spent the entire hour that we were in church asleep in the nursery lady's arms. When I told her she should feel free to put him down in a crib, she said "but he was so warm and cozy!"
Henry is obsessed with shoes. It is one of his few consistent words that he says "ch-oo'-s" he says whenever he sees a pair of shoes. He always wants to wear shoes, and he gets very excited about new shoes. So cute!
He is a GREAT eater - in fact, I don't think he has ever encountered a food that he wasn't willing to shovel into his mouth with great enthusiasm. I joke that I have college funds for the girls and a food fund for when Henry is a teenager!
Henry is running and climbing a lot. He will repeat words back to us, but will not use very many of them on his own (Amelia was the same way at this age). He does just talk gibberish nonstop. He has the BEST laugh, and laughs a lot!
He does love his sleep and is crabby when he doesn't get it
and he ALWAYS has dirt under his fingernails
He is wearing some 18-24 month clothes and starting to wear more and more 24 month clothes. We are still loving our one-size cloth diapers. He is starting to get some molars, which I think is why his sleeping hasn't been the best lately - he's been waking up fussy, but doesn't want to get out of bed.
We love this sweet boy of ours. I cannot believe in a very short while he is going to be a big brother!!
