18 Months Old

This week Skyler turned 18 months old. I'm surprised at how fast the time has flown from his first birthday to now. He can do so many things now, and everyday he blows me away with how much he knows. Yesterday I was feeling especially grateful for my little boy and just wanted to include a few reasons why. I love him because he. . .
-loudly yelled "bye" and waved to everyone in the grocery store today.
-tickled my neck after I tickled his.
-gave me numerous unrequested hugs before his bath last night.
-says "mama" in the sweetest voice.
-likes to hold my hand even when we are only walking into the other room.
-lays on his tummy propped up on his elbows to read books.
-hugs his "puppy" and drags it around the house.
-wiggles his hips to music and whenever I say "wiggle."
-tiptoes around the kitchen.
-grabs my hand and pulls me to the window to show me anything outside (bugs, birds, mail truck).
-lets me rock him before his naps and bedtime.
