Is that crazy? Christopher Jean (as in Jean Claude, not blue jean) is almost 20 months old! And he is getting cuter and cuter and cuter and more fun every day!! Almost every day he walks over to two different DVD racks and he points to either Cars (Pixar) or Adam's paintball DVDs. And then he points to the TV until you get the DVD going! There are countless Elmo DVDs, Disney DVDs, and all sorts of other DVDs, but those two are the ones he likes. :-) Also, he doesn't seem to like being inside. He LOVES playing outside in the patio. And if the playing involves water, even better!
The picture I posted shows Christopher and Kaynen. Just today, my good friend Wendy dropped off her son Kaynen on her way to Jury Duty. (side note: I'm so glad she got excused. She's 8 months pregnant!! She doesn't need the stress of jury duty!) So Kaynen and Christopher are about 6 months apart and they had a blast playing in the patio today! They were splashing around, laughing and everything was great until I dried them off and brought them back inside. Then they saw the building blocks and the world was great once again.
Christopher is definitely into his toddler stage. He knows what to do when I say "subete el pantalon". He's working on that. He loves trying to put on his shoes or socks with Mom's help. He has his electric Shrek toothbrush which he just shoves in his mouth while it's moving (and then mom or dad help to actually brush the teeth) and he LAUGHS all the time. It's so fun!! He's just a really happy baby. And i remember thinking that when I was pregnant. I just "knew" he'd be a happy kid. :-)
I do mornings & breakfast and Dad does bedtime & naptime. Whenever Adam asks if he's tired and he is, Christopher just walks right up to his crib and waits for Dad to lift him in. He seems ready for a toddler bed, but not yet. He seems content when I get him in the morning. And when I walk in the room, he gives me his little Baby Jesus board book (thank you, Stacey!) and we read it together.
We are blessed.
