1. Board books - chewing on them (we call him our Little Goat), turning the pages, having stories read to him
2. Crawling - he finally figured out how to crawl on his hands and knees (versus the army crawl). It only took 12.5 months to "click". This guy does things in his own time, that's for sure.
3. Walking while holding onto one of Mama or Dada's hands
4. Trying to get the silverware out of the open dishwasher
5. Getting ash on his hands in the fireplace...he conveniently chooses to do this when I am in the restroom
6. Mama's car keys (this probably ranks #1!)
7. Taking each piece out of his puzzle and dropping them one by one onto the floor
8. Eating magazines and other paper advertisements...and yes, I did say eating
9. Eating/unrolling the toilet paper
10. Spilling water out of his cup and wiping it all over his tray
11. Babbling - saying Mama, Dada, and lots of random combinations of sounds; he sometimes will mimic us and that's fun! Just like his Mama, though, we have a hard time coercing him to do anything he doesn't want to do, so sometimes when we babble at him we just get the Blank Stare
12. Looking at himself in the mirror - he seriously lights up at his own reflection
13. Seeing dogs, anywhere - cue high pitched squeal
14. Putting sticks, leaves, dirt, and acorns into his mouth
15. His Mama - he's totally a mama's boy, and I'll just be honest, I love it. Well, if I'm being really honest here, I love it unless it's the middle of the night and he only wants me. Which is every night. Sigh.
Does that sound like a little boy toddler to you? It does to me! He's seriously a mess, and we love him.
Bram somehow manages to twist around (strapped in) in the cart.
He just has to see what I'm seeing as we shop, apparently.
My perfectly happy little contortionist.
Abram's new friend, Mason, turned one last week and we got to go to his party.
He loved his cake!
There are lots of little boys right around Abram's age at church.
Somehow we got most of the babies at the party to sit down for a quick pic.
