Happy 17 Month day to William!

A lot has happened in the last two months.  For starters, no more bottle!  William drinks milk out of a cup now.  The trick - Nestle Strawberry Quik.  At first it was the only way he would drink milk out of a cup, and now no more pink milk!

Recently, he has found out that he can climb up in the kitchen chairs, which has led to trying to climb on top of the table.  Nothing is safe anymore.

What I love about my little guy these days:  He hugs by laying his head on you.  I'm not sure why he does this, but it is very cute!  He loves to give kisses - most of the time they are still open mouth kisses, but I can tell he's working on it :)  He also enjoys giving High-Fives and "pounds."  The thing about kisses and high-fives is, if he gives one to me or David, he must find the other of us give them one too.  He usually goes back and forth numerous times til he's all kissed or high-fived out.  He still LOVES to dance - in the car, when he hears the opening to some of our favorite shows, and basically anytime he hears a good beat :)


He still enjoys playing with Layla, even if the feeling isn't mutual.  He's getting really good at throwing balls, and is always very proud of himself when he throws them for Layla, giving himself a good clap.  He also LOVES to play outside.  At the park, I was amazed and a little frightened at how brave he was on the slides.  He had no problems coming down them all by himself, even though he could hardly hold himself up at first.  He also enjoys playing in the dirt, and putting big handfuls of dirt in his hair!  Yes, it is very messy, but I guess that's little boys, right?  I don't have pictures from the park, but here are a few of his first time of a play house at Chick-fil-A.




We just love our little guy, and can't believe how fast he is growing up!
