Sixteen Months Old!

My little boy is now 16 months old! He still loves being outdoors, playing soccer, and swimming. He is still a quiet little boy. He does babble a lot and says Ma-Ma and Da-Da (and a few other words) and is beginning to let us know what he wants by communicating nonverbally more often. He will walk to the door and reach for the doorknob when he wants to go outside and will go to the fridge for juice or milk, etc.

He has no idea his life is about to change drastically. I am nervous about how he will handle sharing the spotlight. I am confident he and Eliana will be the best of friends in a couple of years, but the beginning transition may be difficult! He has been extremely clingy lately...it is like he knows he won't have all of Mommy's attention soon. I know it is going to be hard for me at first because I won't be able to give Ethan all the attention he wants. However, I remind myself parents do this all the time and everything is going to be okay! Just say a prayer for us when you think of it..thanks!

Here are some cute pictures of Ethan at 16 months old!!
