Where does the time go?? 19 Months

Taggart is growing up soooo much! He is getting so smart everyday. He has been amazing me with random things all the time. Even though he is not talking much yet, I have realized that he understands A LOT! I have always called his stuffed animal and blanket that he likes to sleep with Mr. then their name. So I call his blanket Mr. Frog. The other day he had drug it out of his crib so it was in the living room, it was time for a nap. So I said go get Mr. Frog so we can go to sleep. He came out and brought it back. He does the same when I say it's time to change your bum. He goes to his room and lays down where I always change him. He has been bringing us food when he is hungry and is such a good eater. He can eat a whole Peanut butter and Jelly sandwich. Now that dad leaves we watch for him out our window and now Taggart always waves and says da da da da, instead of waving and saying bye bye. But I still think it's cute. He gets so excited when we pick up dad, and if I tell him it's time to go, he'll bring me his shoes and his coat. He is loving nursery so much. If we ever have to take him out of Sacrament Meeting, he runs straight to the nursery room and tries to climb the gate to get in. He still hasn't cried when we've left him, I'm hoping he just won't. I do like that he is excited when we pick him up though.

Maybe he'll be a boxer??!!

I just think that little boys look so cute in their church clothes, and I love making Taggart's hair curly. But boy does he need a hair cut. Hopefully soon. He loves putting on dad's shoes all day and walking around in them. It is so crazy, because he always puts them on the right feet and gets mad when he can't go where he wants. He is getting really good at it. He is constantly bringing us his shoes or boots to put on. He always brings the correct pair and just always likes to have some on his feet.

He's getting so good at playing with things the correct way too.

Happy in the morning!

Some hard things that come with his age are taking him to the grocery store. If I am lucky he will stay in the cart long enough to eat a package of fruit snacks or drink some juice. Then he wants out. Let's just say it is very hard to take him alone and not feel like I'm going to lose him. I miss the days when he would sleep in the cart,,,ha ha. So we usually let him help us push the cart and that helps entertain him.  He also always wants to go outside and since the weather has been so weird we haven't been able too very much, so thank heavens he likes to play with me and his toys inside too. His new favorite thing to do is knock over the block tower, it cracks him up for a long time. He's getting better at doing his shape toys and puzzles.  Also most of the time you can be sure to see Tagg with something on his head, whether it be a bucket, bowl, block etc. He just loves having a helmet :)

Still loves his books :)

He has a hard time remembering to always watch where he is going and fell on his blocks the other night. It made his nose bleed. I'm just grateful that was all it was and he was okay after a couple of minutes.

We got to go see Tyler again. We haven't seen him since Tagg was 4 months old. They actually played pretty well together, or just content by themselves. Tyler is almost 2 1/2 and Taggart is pretty much bigger than him.

Got to meet Hannah, didn't turn out to be the best picture. She is cute and a pretty content baby. Already so big and is only 6 months old.

We have been reading the kids Book of Mormon with him every night. He actually sits pretty well for us, and even chooses that book to look at during the day which I think is cute. I just can't wait for him to say at least part of his prayers by himself. We always tell him to say amen, and sometimes he tries. It's so cute. He's growing up so fast, that it is making us more excited for the new one coming, because we feel like Taggart is going to be a great big brother!! Also, with him around we never have a dull moment, which is good for the soul :)
