Patton at 17 Months

Our Lil Guy is growing up faster than I can even comprehend! We're sure enjoying the sweet, energetic addition he is to our family! Here are some facts about Patton at 17 months:

First word: "shoe". He's obsessed with shoes! He's always carrying around our shoes or taking off his own. It should be no surprise that this was his first official word! LOL!

Other words he says: car, soap, hot (and he'll tell us when something is hot), cat, crockpot, cock-a-doodle doo, moo, trash, outside

Things he likes: PEOPLE, he LOVES to wave to everyone he sees, Franklin the cat, when Daddy comes home, going for walks, playing in his sandbox, swinging in his outside swing, helping Mommy with the dishes or sweeping the floors, swimming in Grandma's pool, playing blocks and Legos, and sitting in the rocking chair reading to himself.

Things he hates: when Mommy or Daddy leave to go somewhere, getting his fingernails clipped, not being able to do what we're doing, naptime.

Favorite foods: Strawberries, grapes, blueberries, cupcakes, cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, smoothies, chocolate. He'll eat anything as long as he sees us eating it.

Least favorite foods: lettuce, hard boiled eggs. He loves ice cream, but his poor little belly can't handle it! :(.

Other facts: Patton is very tall and skinny. I just got him out of 9 month pants (it's true). He has 12 teeth. He loves to smile and make everyone else laugh. When he knows he's doing something he shouldn't, he'll give a HUGE smile and shake his head "no" because he knows that he shouldn't be doing it. 

I can't believe he's almost a year and a half! We love seeing him grow and develop and we are so blessed to have him in our lives!!
