Nasher

In honor of Nash turning 16 months old today, I thought I'd jot down some thoughts. I usually don't make a fuss about turning the big "1-6" months, but since he's changing and doing something new everyday, I though I'd better write it down for journaling purposes.

Nash is starting to become quite verbal especially within the last few weeks. Things he says:

momma
dada
bye bye
nite nite,
more
hi
thank you (he tried so hard to say it today)
boo!
huh (means yes if it's in a happy tone, no if it's grunted)
ball
bubble

New words:
Elmo
Ice cream
stinky (he's even told me a few times when he was "stinky" even if he just tooted!)
Shhhh
Share
cookie
yeah
uh oh

What Nash can say now: Nash is speaking in full-on sentences now. Here are a few things he says often

Want some more please, mommy.
More treat please mommy.
I no want it.
Thank you.

Those are the main phrases he says, but he still loves singing songs. He can sing really well! One night a few weeks ago Tyler and I were out and we had a babysitter. When we got home, the sitter said, Nash was asleep, but he's been awake for a little while and has been singing. We walked near his room and he was singing "I Am A Child of God" He just kept repeating, "Lead me guide me walk beside me, help me find the way..." It was so cute.

Nash is a great communicator, but sometimes it can get slightly annoying...because he literally bosses me around all day! "I want milk. Where's my pink bunny? I need my backpack!" Are just a few examples.

Nash is all boy with a few exceptions:

• His favorite books are Pinkalicious and Purplicious

• His favorite show right now is Zoey's Dance Moves.
• His favorite color--you guessed it, Pink.
• He occasionally likes to put on Sydney's dress up skirts.
• He sleeps with a little baby doll. It's actually quite cute!
  

Some of his other favorite songs include, but are not limited to:
Follow the Prophet
Baptism
Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
You Are My Sunshine
Once there was a Snowman





Things he likes:
Mom holding him
Balls
Water
Following Trace and Sydney around the house
Drinks (non alcoholic, as far as you know)
Corn-on-the cob
Swimming
Chicken nuggets
Playing at the beach
Sweeping
His blanket
His binky
Reading books
Baby MacDonald DVD (he's constantly saying E-I-E-I-O, which is my hint to get it in the DVD player before E-I-E-I-O turns into loud shrills)
