18 Months Old!

I can't believe Luke is already 18 months old!! My little baby boy is no longer a baby! He is growing up so fast. He has a huge vocabulary now, he can repeat almost everything we say, and knows exactly what I am saying to him when talking. He is so smart!

Luke loves to read, he looks at books all day, and I love when he brings me over a book and plops himself down in my lap to read to him, although he won't sit long enough to finish a book or even let me finish a page before he turns the page, but I still love to read to him.

To say this boy LOVES trucks is an understatement. He plays with trucks all day long, talks about trucks when he is not playing with trucks and when we are driving down the street he gets super excited when he sees trucks! Now when he hears an ambulance or fire truck in the distance when we are playing outside he stops and cups his hand around his ear and says "Amey!!" (which is his word for ambulance.) 

We started a mom and tots gym class at the park district, and the first couple classes were CRAZY! Luke was not getting the listening part of class, but to my amazement, now that we are at the end of the class, Luke is learning to follow the teachers directions! YAY! When Miss Alison tells the kids to come and find a circle to sit on Luke runs over and finds one and sits down, and also follows directions when the teacher shows him how to use the equiptment. (Not always, but at least he is trying now!)...WOAH...That is a huge improvement from the last month! Doesn't mean he listens to mommy though, we are working on that one. And getting a vghis new temper tantrums

I am so proud of Luke and we love to watch him grow and his silly little personality shine through! He reminds me a lot of his daddy, and my dad. They both are always being silly, and since Jared and my dad are Luke's favorite people in the whole world, I am not surprised that he has a silly personality just like them.
