the little man is growing up!

Brigs hit 20 months last week. If you would have told me a month ago that I had a 20 month old I would have said "ya but he still seems like such a baby" well people things have changed! The last month or two have been HUGE for Brigs. I was starting to get a little worried that he wasn't doing "certain things" but as soon as I voiced my concern to Phil Brigs thought "HA I'll show you!!" Here what he's up to....

*Has probably more than doubled his vocabulary adding belly button, baby, where are you, stuck, hello, bye bye, what, ya, please, help, ball, balloon, book, bath, and is trying to say a lot more things. Love this!
*Has starting putting A FEW words together....mostly "peese hep" (please help) and has said "wareyou da" (where are you Dad) a few times.
*Started making animal sounds like monkey, lion, dog, cat, elephant
*Can now identify body parts. Nose, ears, eyes, teeth, tongue, hands, fingers, feet
*Is getting to be a much better listener. Understands everything I ask him to do and usually does it. Except for when it comes to the toilet! GROSS!
*Is obsessed with being outside (cold or hot) playing in the sink, taking baths, reading books, playing the wii and helping mom.
*Still cries and screams A LOT. He also does not play well by himself, with Koen, or with toys. He needs entertaining.
*He can jump with both feet of the ground...so cute!

I am so happy! I know you were worried about him with the new baby coming. Good job little guy. I hope Chris steps it up. He still can't roll or even hold his head up when he is on his belly :(

It is so much fun to see them grow and learn. Brinley is also obsessed with going outside, no matter what the weather is like. She loves water too.

Isn't it amazing how all of a sudden they start doing and saying a lot more all at once?! :) He sure is a cute little guy!

NO! He can't grow up! He needs to stay your tiny little peanut forever! I love how little he is! It's adorable!
