Sammy is 16 months now, and has been for almost a month now ;). It's been a busy month, so please excuse the lateness. So what is Sammy like at 16 months? Curious, Strong-willed, Happy.
He learned another 2 signs and now does "milk" for any drink, "food," "done," and "more." Apparently signs work well for him with food - maybe because then he doesn't have to stop eating to do them? He also has 3 words - "Mama," "No," and "Ball." Ball sounds more like "Ba-" but he definitely means ball.
He has also learned to climb onto, and get into, even more places he shouldn't. In the course of a week, he climbed into the bathroom sink, on top of the piano, onto the counter, pulled the garbage can that's up on a chair because of him, down on top of himself. He pulled a kid chair over to the utensil drawer and found the largest knife we own (needless to say, that drawer is now childproofed), and went "treasure" hunting in the litter box.
Needless to say, there is rarely a dull moment with this child around! Our house now looks a little different - the piano doesn't have a bench at it, the stools are not at the kitchen bar, the chairs are always tucked into the table, and the bathroom door stays shut!
We sure love this little man though. He loves to snuggle and he says "mama" all the time. He melts my heart.
