19 months

Peter,

You are 19 months old now. Up until this point you have been a pretty healthy boy, but this last month that was not the case. It seems like you have been sick the entire month. It started out with 2 ear infections, which I didn't even know about. Dr. Bacak found them at your 18 month check-up. Poor thing. And you held on to those ear infections for 2.5 - 3 weeks. Then you got a cold to go with your ear infections, which quickly turned into croupe (which you gave to your Mommy). No Fun. But I think we are almost back to normal. You'll be off of the steroids in two more doses, not that I'm counting. (Giving steroids to toddlers should be illegal). Really.

You have still been cute even though you are sick. You get super excited when we bake.

You love to help, especially pouring in the ingredients.

And this time Mommy let you lick the spoon. Mmmm Heaven.

There is still a little bit left.

Wiping up the mess. It was a BIG MESS! But so worth it.

You also love to play with your farm. You love to play with people. Well kind of. Here's what playing with people means for you.

Here Mommy hold my cow.

Ok. Can I have it back now.

Here Mommy hold this horse.
I'm ready to have it back now.

So although we don't really play together, you like to have me near as you play.

Sometimes when I'm cleaning in the kitchen it will get really quiet in the living room. As a Mom we all know what that can mean. Usually, I've made a huge mess, and I'm super proud of myself.

But sometimes..............












just sometimes, you will find..............






A cute boy, sitting quietly, reading his books.

Here you are, so proud of yourself, because you climbed onto the fireplace all by yourself.

I Love you SWEET BOY!
