19 months

Ben is 19 months today. I thought I'd write down a few things he is doing right now. (Note to self: write them in the baby book!)

• loves to play catch with his daddy
• can say animal sounds for cow, dog, cat, horse
  
• loves to climb on the couch and throw all the pillows on the floor
• is taking a two hour afternoon nap ON HIS OWN!!!! (see what he was doing before)
  
• loves, loves, LOVES dogs
• makes me read him a book about 20 times a day
• is VERY talkative, some of the words we know that he is saying - "mama", "dada", "socks", "shoe", "again", "cookie","Elmo", "Nemo", "trash", "yes", "no" (his favorite word!)
  
• loves to dance and clap his hands
• rolls on the floor (for fun)
  
• climbs up/down stairs on his own
• creates catastrophic disasters - blocks, books, toys, paperwork, tupperware, shoes, etc.
• runs to me on a countdown - 1...2...3...runs to mommy/daddy
• loves to snuggle
• knows what buttons turn on and change channels on the TV remote
