Though I battled a cold most of the trip I enjoyed my second Thanksgiving. I LOVED the green beans, of course, but also ate up the stuffing and brocolli casserole. I still do not like to ride in the car, we had to stop and give me a break about two hours in.

I definitely added to my growing list of vocabulary and christened several relatives with some names. His name started out as “Bobby”, but Dad’s dad is now “Poppy” and Grandma’s mom is “G.G.” I also said “Beth”. I learned to say “yellow” and “gobble” too, video coming soon!

Mom, Dad, and I enjoyed what will probably be the last weekend we can be outside with light jackets. I had a great time climbing, running, swinging, and sliding.

I’m also having a vocabulary explosion! This weekend I learned to say yellow, black, orange, brown, badge (I love to play with mom and dad’s school badges), elbow, knee, clock, and probably some others they are forgetting about. I’m growing up soooo fast! At my check-up I was 28.4 lbs, 32.5 in, and still a huge head (but I’ve gone from the 99th percentaile to 70, so I’m moving in the right direction).

Mom, Dad, and I had a great time enjoying the beautiful weather! Can you believe I’m a year and a half? I have my check-up on Friday, so we’ll have measurements then.

New this week: I can say ball and baby, I can now also identify the letter B!

I can totally identify the letter “A”, here’s the proof! Add “apple” and “Abby” (my little girlfriend at daycare) to my growing list of vocab! Also new this weekend: moon and star! Working on B!

I’ve learned to say “Ipad” and to cast in my fishing game! I’ve also learned to identify the letter “A” from doing “A” crafts/reading with mommy and using an Ipad app (we’re working on that video, I just wasn’t much into that this morning).
