18 months

{our nephew came by to take some more formal pics of reese while he is still 1.  i love these quiet pics of babies.}

our little guy is now 18 months old and keeping us extremely busy.  he gets bored in the house after a while, so we are always taking him outside {his favorite place}.  he runs up and down the street with the big kids or plays at our park.  no matter what he is doing he is usually content out there.  he interacts with us so much more now, gives us big belly laughs, gets excited for our praise, looks to us for direction, and turns around when he hears his name while he is running away {most of the time}.  he can slide down small slides by himself, climb up & down our stairs, and loves playing the hat game {he puts a hat on our head, we put it back on his head}.  it's fun to see some personality coming out of this little person. 

{he used this chair to learn how to step up & down using 1 foot like us; no crawling up curbs anymore.}

{more ball fun.}

{hat game}

{his very own hat.}

{slide fun}

{check out that tongue.  it comes out when he is concentrating.}

{there's that hat again.}
