21 months old

Stephen is 21 months old. He has become quite the little chatterbox as you can see in this video. I love listening to his constant talking and singing.

Some other fun facts about Stephen...
   *He will usually give squeezes (hugs) and kisses when asked.
   *He has started grabbing our hands and taking us where he wants us to go.
   *He loves playing with his soccer ball, basketball, baseball, and football. He throws them and kicks them.
   *He has started calling me "mama." Every once in awhile he still says "mom."
   *His eating habits have become very confusing. The foods I can count on him to eat are any fruits - especially strawberries, grapes, and bananas, peanut butter sandwich, grilled cheese sandwich, ravioli, crackers, cheese, bread, and pasta. Sometimes he will eat chicken and hamburger but only when he feels like it. Vegetables have gone from being something he always eats to something he'll sometimes eat a couple bites of. He loves his milk and water (which he always calls "juice).
