YOGURT!

Gavin, my independent toddler. He is getting really interested in feeding himself these days. Needless to say, we're doing a lot of laundry. His favorite things these days are finger foods (pretzel sticks, crackers, cereals) but this kid would eat yogurt every meal if we'd let him!

He's so independent and SO opinionated/willful. It's like looking in a behavior mirror. For Dan, that is. His life is his way or the highway. I'm so glad. I like who he is and who he is becoming. He has a very joyful life and he is learning so much every day. Week to week, we can really see him growing up and changing. The thing that remains so constant is yogurt! He's changed beds (toddler bed now!); he turned 18 months old; he's a word explosion, every week with new words; and he gets crazy in new, funny ways, like when he crawled up on the coffee table at the baby shower - PARTY! But the kids eats darned yogurt morning, noon, and night. And now all by himself!!

Normally, kids with food on their face is the #1 way to gross me out. But with Gavin, he looks so cute! That kids is just adorable, and I am SO FREAKING EXCITED for my day to babysit. I'm seriously counting down the days! He looks like such a big boy now, I can't wait to hear what he's saying.

You cut his hair! I knew the day was coming....he is SO FREAKING CUTE! If you spilled yogurt all over your face when you ate, and were a toddler boy, and had a new hair cut, I would think that was you in the chair. I love that bebe.

Oh man! I love his haircut!!!! Why is it, when parents do the "first" haircut, kids stop looking like babies and more like grown toddlers? Talk about instant change :). I didn't realize you had already switched to a toddler bed- go Gavin!! How was that process? Can you give me any hints?
