Parker is now approaching 22 months! I can't believe how much he changes daily. I have been terrible about keeping up with my blog so it seems I have a lot to journal about so I don't forget! I am not sure how much he actually weighs because we don't go to the doctor until May. I am assuming he is right at or a little under 30lbs. He loves his big boy bed and is doing MUCH better about staying in it all night and at naptime. I am so thankful we moved him early so that he knows his room and not the nursery as his room.
Excuse the mess on his shirt he has been learning how to use a spoon and fork without help so there have been some messy mealtimes! :) He is doing much better with them and actually would prefer to use utensils instead of his hands. As you can see in this picture he loves trying on our shoes!
Parker is a VERY busy little boy! I don't think he stops for one second of the day unless he is eating or sleeping. He absolutley loves to be outside! His favorite show right now is the Fresh Beat Band because he loves to dance! It's the cutest thing when he wants to watch it, he will come up and say "please" while doing please in sign language and then he start dancing. It's funny how you learn to understand what your toddler is saying by just motions!
Words he says: Elmo (it was "mamo" until this week, now it's "elmo"), please, no (to almost every question you ask him), all done (when he is done with his food or he wants me to be done doing something he doesn't like i.e. vaccuming). He says "meow" when you ask him what sound a cat makes. He says "more", "there it is", "Rolo", "Mom", "Da", "Night Night", "Bath", "boat", and "Hi". He knows where all his body parts are and can say "eyes, nose, mouth, and teeth". He has learned the letters "A and B" to where he can recognize them and say them out loud.
In this picture he was pretending this toy was a train so he was saying "cho choo". Parker loves to color and play match up the colors game. For example he will put yellow legos in a yellow bowl, red legos in a red bowl, so on and so forth. We are so proud of him with how much he is learning!! Now if we could just teach him how to be gentle before the baby gets here we will be in good shape! :)

Wow I'm so impressed with his sorting abilities!
Brody always used to say "Melmo" but now he says "Elmo." I was so sad when he learned the correct way to say it because it was so cute the other way. :)
