21 Months

I feel like I just barely did a post for Wesley's 20 month mark. This summer is going by so fast and we really cannot believe Wes will be a big brother in 5 1/2 weeks. Are we ready? Not really.. but that's for another post.

Lately Wesley:

  • Has mastered the word NO. He uses it all the time- to tell me what he doesn't want to eat, what he doesn't want to do, says no-no to Rosie when she barks, etc.. he loves this word.
  • Obsessed with letters (hence the inspiration to the letter wall in his room). He points out letters everywhere we go. We were at Sams club the other day and he ran over to the ICE cooler and pointed out the E and kept saying E-E-E-E. He was so excited.
  • Favorite letters include B, E, M, O and P. Whenever he sees one of these letter he points them out or makes their sound.
  • Started making the sound for monkey and bear.
  • Is getting really good at communicating with us using a mixture of words and signs.
  • Loves books.. we probably read at least 20 books a day.
  • Still obsessed with Cars and Toy Story
  • Has to close any open door
  • Feels like it's his duty to make sure the dryer is always running (even when clothes aren't in there)
  • Loves swimming 
  • Makes goofy faces all day long- he thinks it's hilarious
  • Loves "helping" me with dinner, dishes and laundry
  • Plays catch with Rosie
  • Turns into destruct-o when he is too tired or hungry
  • Enjoys playing chase with his Dad. The other day he grabbed Phil's hand and dragged him out to the family room to chase after him- so cute.
Wes is looking and acting more like a big boy everyday. He is growing and learning so fast. Wes definitely keeps us on our toes.

Here are some recent pictures of our crazy kid!

Excited about a package his Auntie Heather sent him

He really wanted to be in the attic with Phil. He actually made it to the top of the ladder, scary.

 Loves block

This picture really captures how goofy he is

The vet had a chalk board for him to color on and he love it.

There was a down pour while we we at the vet. When we came out Wes thought jumping in puddles was the best thing ever.


And some fun instagram pictures

I asked him to smile and this is what I got.

I love his sleeping position

Best buddies with his Daddy

Enjoys sitting in his toy box while he plays.

He didn't like when the Dr took Rosie out of the room at the vet. He was very concerned about his dog.
