Nole at 21 months

Nole, you are such a  big boy these days!  You love to play all day.  You LOVE trucks, trains, tractors, airplanes...anything that goes. 

 You like to color, especially when we sit together and draw fun things.  You can identify all of your letters and numbers and can count almost to 20 by yourself (1-13 skip a few 16 skip a few 19, 20). You pretty much know your colors and your shapes.

You love to be tickled, preferably by daddy. You also like to hide around the house waiting to be found.  You talk A LOT. You can speak in short sentences and copy anything that we say. Your laugh is the best! You always make other people laugh, just by laughing. 

 You know you are silly.  You are strong willed.  You are a great sleeper.  You like "Bible study" at night before bed, and brushing your teeth.  You usually bring at least five cars to bed with you.

You love Sunday school and Thursday morning Bible study play group.  You just very recently started singing, usually the ABC's, The Wheels on the Bus, Twinkle Twinkle or Itsy Bitsy Spider.

You are a so-so eater.  Your appetite comes and goes but you usually like mac and cheese, PB & J, avocado, bananas, apples, cereal bars, cottage cheese, yogurt, apple sauce, and (especially) cheese.

Your typical schedule right now is:
Wake up anywhere betwee 6:30 and 8:00
Drink a cup of milk
Eat breakfast and play
Play some more or go to Bible study, the library, or sometimes the park
Lunch around noon
Nap 1-4:00
Hang out in you "cart" (running stroller) while mom or mom and dad run
Supper around 6:00
Bath
To bed at 8:00

You are a typical toddler boy. Cuddly one moment, and throwing yourself on the floor the next. You learn and grow and change constantly. We love you so much, and that's an understatement!
