20 months old

Nash is 20 months old today. We will be planning his 2nd birthday before you know it. Nash is a lot of fun. One of his favorite things to do at the moment is play with his blocks. He likes to build the tower as high as he can and then knock it over. I has been a good tool to teach him his colors. He knows red, blue, geen (as he calls it), yellow and black. Blue is by far is favorite. He still likes balls and trucks. He has been talking like crazy and can in his own way carry on a conversation with you. He does speak in sentences which is crazy but most of the time he puts a couple words together like daddy's truck, my momma, ch e cheese Nate, etc. He likes to "draw". He has a magna doodle that he uses for that but is known to find a pen or pencil and write on things he is not supposed to. He likes to sing songs and is starting to remember parts of songs and sing them on cue. He has "la la la la la la Melmo's World" down and others. He is cutting a lot of teeth right now but is sleeping pretty good with the help of Motrin at bed time. His hair is getting really long and curly. A lot of the time he has crazy hair. I know at some point I am going to have to cut it but I am not ready for that yet and think their will be tears shed when it happens. He has an Elmo potty. He will sit on it with clothes on and say "pee pee" he hasn't really liked sitting on it without clothes on. He also for some weird reason likes to knock things over, mainly his basketball goal. He will push it over and say "goal fall down". He also likes to knock over his rocking chair and kangaroo. I'm not liking that so much as I have to constantly pick those things up. Speaking of picking things up. My house is a mess most of the times because he likes to get out all his toys and stroll them everywhere. He will pick them up and does good with that but like his blocks and balls as soon as he picks them up he thinks it is so much fun to spill them out everywhere again. He has recently started to like Barney. Normally he goes between Word World and Elmo as in it's either all Elmo or all Word World. Currently we are back on Word World but Barney is a close second compared to Elmo and Word World. It's the singing and dancing on there as he LOVES to do both. He varies up his dancing styles and picks up on what the kids are doing on the show. It is quite funny to watch. Chris has DJ hero and Nash loves to sing and dance a long to it. I have it videoed him dancing to "Ice Ice Baby" and "B A N A N A S" but can't get my video to load on the lap top. You have to trust me on this one. It's too cute. Nash also likes hats, especially his yellow fireman hat that he got from Lane's party. He likes to wear it backwards and push his popper around like it's his job. Often he wants to take it along with us in the car. The boys favorite place in the world right now is Chuck E Cheese. He talks about it literaly every day. Usually it has Nate's name attached to it. I think he associates the two even though he's been their several times without him. Nash is trying to learn letters. Right now most letters are T. Even though he will repeat the correct letter when you tell him what it is.

Happy 20 Months Nash Rivers.
