We did not want to
pose!
This is the best we were able to get.

Oh Emerson, what would we do without you! It's hard to believe it's been 18 months already. Sometimes we wonder what we ever did without you. You keep us busy, busy, busy! Since we're leaving tomorrow for Sandestin, not to mention you're already closer to 19 months than 18, I should probably do this post.
So,
what has our smart sweet boy been up to over the past few months?
Everything! You understand so much of what we say and try to repeat
much of it. You go get your water cup, snack cup, or whatever else we ask
for and you go over to your high chair when we tell you it's time to eat.
Sometimes, you don't want to do what it is and you take your time, but
you eventually do it. You've developed a bad habit of dumping your snack
when you're done with it, but you're getting better.
I
don't know what is so special about shoes, but you always want to wear at least
one. Whether it's yours, mine, or your Daddy's; it doesn't matter.
Curious
is your middle name. Getting into things is your game. You are such
a hands-on kid! It's as if you need to know how something works, what's
inside, or how is comes apart to survive sometimes. The curiousness
goes for people too. When we're at the park, you want to swing where the
other people are and it doesn't matter if it's "your" swings or the
big kid swings (which you're really good on!). The play sets that are
"too big for you"...nope it doesn't matter. You've got to be
where the action is. Of course, after awhile you're ready
to just play by yourself, but you've got to make sure you know what's
around first.
There
are so many words you can say! We may not be sure of what you're trying
to tell us sometimes, but you're getting better at it. Right now, you'd
much rather show us than tell us anyway. It's so funny how
you'll say truck, car, water, Pop, Papaw, or whatever to us but
you refuse to say it around anyone else.
That
brings us to your current favorite word, Choo-Choo. You love trains.
We've got to take you to see a real train one day soon! But you
have three toy trains and you love to watch Thomas & Friends. You
love Choo Choo Soul on Disney Jr but we don't seem to catch it much anymore.
It's so cute to watch you dance to the intro and outro
title sequences for Thomas (or anytime you dance to the music for that
matter!).
There's
so much you're seeing, learning, and doing! I know I haven't covered all
of it, but you're almost finished with your supper and you'll be off to bed
shortly. Tomorrow we head to the beach!
