Again, the busyness of life reverts me list-blogs! My favorite Landon quirks right now...
1.) He knows his toys. He has definate favorites and knows how to use all of them. I know it sounds silly, but Ive watched him from the first time he saw the toys to now knowing which is which, where they go, and what they do. Its so much fun to watch his little brian grow.
2.) He isnt talking much yet, but I can tell that he is about to explode with a vocabulary. He does, however, use influction all day long. My two favorites: When you count out something he will count with you, minus the words. (which is almost impossible to explain in a blog! lol) The other is the intro song to Micky Mouse Club House. He will do the influction along with the roll call. All the time he will just be chatting away, especially when he wakes up. He will just sit in there sometimes for ahalf an hour just chattin by himself.
3.) He loves books. He is constantly carrying books around and bring them over to me to read. I hope he likes books more than daddy and mommy did!
4.) We were driving to Seattle last Saturday and he started saying, "Hi." For a half an hour he kept saying "Hi." Now it is all the time and occasionally accompanied by a wave. It was hilarious the other night. We had our small group over and we were all getting settled in the living room and my mom was cleaning up Landon's high chair so he escaped and worked his way in to the living room. He was just standing there basking in all the attention. Than Crystal walked by him from the kitchen and said "Hi" as she walked by as you normally would. When Landon returned with a "Hi" Crystal's face looked so confused. He talks? It was so funny.
5.) We pulled out a pair of rubber boots that Kirk had gotten Owen for his first birthday. They are a little big but every night when daddy gets home we put them on and he waddles out to give daddy kisses. I love seeing those little boots sitting by the front door.
6.) Big bites for a big boy! Sometimes its hard to know what he is capable of doing and I seem to not give him enough credit a lot of the time. So when we go visit Marisa and the boys I see what Finn is doing and try it for Landon...which he usually picks up without a hitch. This time...no more cutting everything up into bite size pieces! Give him the chuck and he will bite it off himself. Who knew?!

Here are a few pictures of our little guy at 15 months old. Landon and I rode along with Kirk for the day a last week.

I totally relate to the counting thing...Kai does the same thing with this de, de, de sound before he starts running at us. Yes, hard to explain but I knew what you meant:) And the biting off food. It took me so long to try it but like is much easier now that I am not obsesively cutting his food into tiny pieces. Landon is getting so big...he and Kai will have a great time together when we are finally able to have a playdate someday:)
