Keegan & Noelle: 14 months

Keegan

Nicknames: Bug, Squish
Teeth: 5 with 1 more coming in
Favorite things: Laughing. Dancing. Playing chase/peek-a-boo around the couch. Giving kisses. Bubble baths. His daddy. Running.

What's new in his world?

When you ask where's the bird? He says 'BER' and points outside.
When you say give me a kiss, he opens his mouth HUGE to give a kiss.
Claps super fast as soon as he hears someone say "Yay!" Right on cue.
Waves hi and bye when asked.
When you ask him what a cow says, he goes mmmmmm, and ocassionally you get the 'oo' at the end.
Tries and does pretty well with 2-3 piece puzzles.
If he sees me or Justin eating, anything, he will walk right over and say more. more. He can also sign more.
He knows, and doesn't choose to listen well to, 'On your bottom!' during bath time.

Words: Ball, Mama, Dada, Bird, More (as in food), Book, Milk (more like Meh)
Sleeping: 7 pm - 7 am, a morning nap around 10:30 AM, and short/intermittent late afternoon naps
Favorite foods: Mandarin oranges, chicken nuggets, popsicles, sweet peas, turkey hot dogs, cheese, watermelon
Drinks: Milk and water out of a sippy cup and does great with a straw

Noelle

Nicknames: Noelley, Princess Pie
Teeth: 6 with 2 more coming in
Favorite things: Me... :) ... Her baby dolls. Any small toy she can grasp in one hand. Walking, yay! Bubble baths. Giving hugs and kisses. Laila. Reading books. When she gets applause after doing something.

What's new in her world?

When you ask her where's your baby? She goes and gets a specific baby doll. And if she can't find it she gets her 'Noelley face' on. Then will find another baby-type toy.
When you ask her where's the bird, she looks outside and sometimes tries to say bird.
Claps as soon as you say YAY!
Waves hi and bye. Everday day now she sees a big fish tank at school and immediately waves at the fish. She also waves at dogs.
She is walking. Steadily and cautiously, but walking longer distances now.
Is very animated; will point things out if you ask her where's daddy, keegan, milk
She loves to try to stand during baths, but is very good at sitting right away when told 'on your bottom.'

Words: Ma, Dada, Book, Ball, Bebe, Milk (meh)
Sleeping: 7 pm - 7 am with a morning nap around 10:30 and an afternoon nap around 3 pm.
Favorite foods: Watermelon, chicken nuggets, beans, any type of fruit, cheese, turkey hot dogs, crackers, craisins
Drinks: Milk and water out of a sippy cup and does well with a straw.

This age is fun. Like, really fun. I can see their minds just going and going as they are really exploring and learning. I'm constantly amazed when I see them pick up a new skill or master a milestone. I love them  and their daddy to the moon and back!
