Wow! Our little sponge is really soaking up everything around him! Our almost 14 month old is practically running anywhere he can get to, and climbing on EVERYTHING! His verbal skills have skyrocketed as well. He babbles pretty much non-stop, but can say several words now: hi, bye, ball, momma, dada, daddy, bath, up, duck. Noah LOVES bath time. As soon as he hears the water filling the tub he runs through the house to the bathroom exclaiming, "BATH, BATH, BATH". He sleeps with his ducky every night and whenever he sees it he says, "Duck!" He loves to color with crayons and gets upset when it's time to put them away. He's really great at picking out the circle shape from his shape sorter and putting it in the right slot...we are still working on the other shapes, but he's starting to figure them out. N has started to learn some sign language, too! So far he knows the signs for "more" and "milk". "More" has proven very beneficial because while he is eating he can simply sign "more" to us when he is ready rather than whining or crying to get what he wants. It has really seemed to give him a good outlet for words he hasn't mastered verbally yet. We are working on the sign for "please" now. Noah's latest trick is blowing kisses! It's pretty much the cutest thing ever. He is growing up so quickly!
