17 Month Highlights:

Some of your new words 

from this month: truck, button,

snack, football, bug, broke,

out, fork, shoes.

You started calling Poppa 

by his name this month.

You pronounce his name

"boppa", and it is so sweet!

You say "Nemmy" when

you are calling Emmy.

I never had to teach you to sign

thank you, because you started 

saying it so early. It has become 

much clearer and sounds like "tank tu."

You can crawl up and down

the stairs all by yourself.

It still makes Mama and Dada

very nervous though!

You are getting pretty good

at feeding yourself with a fork.

You moved up to a booster

seat this month. I think you were

pretty happy to say bye bye 

to the high chair.

When we ask you if you want

get a bath, you run to the tub.

It may be your favorite thing to do!

You now sign please for when 

you want something. If you really

want it, you will use both hands

and rub really fast. It is too funny!

You love The Wheels on the Bus

video on YouTube and you will

watch it over and over.

You also love the Ten Little Indians

video and when watching it

you make an Indian sound.

You can point to your eyes now

and you call them "ise".
When we ask you what the 
sheep says, you say "baa."
You love to be tickled and
you love to swing upside down.
Both of these things make
you laugh so hard.
You want to do everything
by yourself. Your independence
is coming out strong.
You must have Bobo
for a nap and he pretty
much goes everywhere you go.
Your are still obsessed with 
Baby Einstein's First Words book
and you now point to some of the
pictures when we ask you 
where something is on the page.
My new favorite thing from 
this month is when we say 
touchdown, you throw your hands
up in the air just like the officials.
 It is the cutest thing ever!

This sure was a big month for 
you Hardy! You are learning so much 
and so quickly! It is hard for us to believe 
that you are already 17 months! 

You are becoming a big

boy way too fast, but we love

watching your personality develop.

You sure are one fun little boy

and we love you to pieces!
