1 1/2 (A little past)

My first blog update in over a month... Dexter is is playing hide and seek/ Pee-a-boo with me right now, haha.

We have so much going on right now. It's summer so of course that makes things busier. We put an offer in on a new house about a month ago, still waiting to hear back. We've been checking out child care center for Dexter to start in August. That's going to be quite an adjustment for our little guy.

Over Memorial Day weekend Dexter went to stay with his Nana in in the mountains about 2 hours away. They had so much fun! I snapped a pic as after we dropped him off, he was walking with his Nana to go see the chickens!

He's been spending a lot of time playing outside at the Sitter's. He loves the water!

He's also getting pretty banged up in the process. He is a fearless little boy...

We had his 18 month check-up this past week. He weighs 23 lbs and is 39 inches long. He's low in weight, but tall and since he eats a ton, there's no reason for concern.

Over the past month or so the tantrums have really taken off! Luckily, none in public yet, but I'm sure that's yet to come. Of course it's when he doesn't get what he wants. I'll admit I give in sometimes to make it stop, but for the most part we are trying to ignore it.

This post has taken me over an hour because there have been various tantrums during... awesome.
Now he has my iphone just so I can finish.
New words that he's saying that I can think of off the top of my head:

Pretty (my earrings)

Nana
Many times tells us when he's pooped or peed.
Says boo boo when he gets hurt and wants you to kiss it.
