16 Months

Graham turned 16 months yesterday. He's definitely a toddler now! We should probably go ahead and get a copy of Strong Willed Child. He has so many new words. "Doot Doot" for "Thank You", car, "shew" for shoe (sounds like "shew! That stinks!" but is an improvement over "Za"), and I am sure I am forgetting some others. We're surprised when a new one randomly pops up.

He has also been learning his body parts at school. He can say "nose", but can point to his tummy, foot, knee, mouth, etc. when asked where they are.

Today, he has started wiping his own nose. He pitched a fit when Mommy did it, but a few minutes later took out a wipe and started wiping his own nose. Tonight he is wiping his own nose when asked. Gotta love that! The down side is that he constantly wants another wipe.

Also, he has started trying to put on Mommy and Daddy's shoes. He has always picked them up and played with them, but this is the first time he's tried to put them on and walk around. Now he does it all the time.
