The Mullins: 16 month review...

It seems like every time I turn around another month has flown by. Clayton continues to amaze us as always, and he makes our lives so full of joy and love it is beyond words. Here are a few of the many new accomplishments he has achieved over the last month. He makes us so proud, without doing anything at all, but here is the icing on the cake :)

*He now says please and thank you at the appropriate times...and he will also repeat your welcome after we say it

*Pushes cars and trucks around the floor, he knows what to do with them now

*Tells us when he "Poo Poos" in his diaper!

*Knows when there is something in each hand he has two, he will tell you "Two"

*When looking in a book or magazine, all women are "Mamas", men are "Dada", and he always points out the babies

*LOVES to put things together, but gets very frustrated when it doesn't go together just how he wants it to!

*He can find where puzzle pieces go on his own

*He is putting two words together...one example, I always say 1,2,3 Go when I get him out of his high chair, so now he says 2, Go! He also says, where go?, and many other phrases are developing daily

*He can push himself forward on his riding toys

*He loves to go to the pantry and pick out his own "nack"

*Can put animal sounds with animals

*Knows the remote controls the TV and asks for Elmo most of the time

*Continues to LOVE water...he is definitely a water baby!!!!

*Is so aware of his surroundings now, very observant and inquisitive

*Constantly saying "Op" because he wants you to open something

*Loves to brush his teeth, but won't let you brush them...LOL

*Has this hilarious "serious look" when concentrating on something, which you can see below in the first picture

*Says "cheese" now whenever he sees the camera...hmmm wonder if that is because mommy is always taking pictures?

*There is so much more, but those are just a few of the highlights
