Marketing Major, perhaps??

Landon just can't get enough of commercial jingles. His 2 favored musical commercials are "FreeCreditReport.com" and the "Cox" commercials with the little blue and white astronaut-looking guys. When the music starts he will run to wherever he hears it in the house, dancing, smiling, and signing for more. We relented yesterday and downloaded them on You Tube.....watched them until we had the songs memorized and now I hear it in my sleep. He absolutely can't get enough of them and we love watching his crazed excitement over it!!

Stop Right There!

Landon turning 18 months last week was a real "wow" factor for me. Can't we just stay right there? He is just becoming such a big boy and seems to be growing out of the baby phase, I'm thrilled he still loves to give cuddles when he wakes up. He is at a constant steady jog, so capturing him in a great photo has become increasingly more difficult. Here's a little update on our little man.

Landon has started this "dress up" stage, absolutely hilarious. Yesterday he refused to wear any other shoes than his cowboy boots. He insisted on wearing them to his gym class. Luckily, there was enough distraction for me to get them off before his class began....but his gave everyone a good "oohh and ahh" at how adorable he is, arriving in his baggy shorts and boots.

Headband vs. sweatband vs. toddler Village People?

Yes, that would be my elastic headband that added the perfect top off accessory to his "I'd Rather be Naked" t-shirt.

He is totally into drawing, more specifically he loves to use coloring pencils or pens. He gets very serious when his paper and pencils come out. He gets into the artist position, talking to the paper, and very carefully makes his masterpiece.

Landon has made friends with a few specific stuffed animals, he has become increasingly attached to them and wants to take them on all his travels around the house, in the car, in his highchair, and tries to out them in the bathtub. If he is not carrying one or all of them, he's dragging it behind him by the arm or Mom carries them for him. Oh, don't forget his tiny blue lovey -blanket that he has been carrying with him too.

Just waking up this morning and his 3 stuffed friends are by his side.

He has 3 good friends from The Little Gym, well 4, if you count his teacher, Miss Rachel, that he absolutely adores. His interactions with other toddlers has expanded immensely. He is understanding how to pretend with toys, developing the concept of sharing, and really knows who he likes to hang with. His new class has several other kids, but Landon and his 3 friends stick to their group. Can cliques start this early? Scot and I invited his friends and their parents over for a BBQ and Landon was thrilled to have his friends at his house, showing off all his toys.

Lan is teaching Cash and Brody how to drive.

The park is always a big hit. Gets a little stressful for Mom and Dad, because Big L thinks he is a big kid and insists on going down the 12 foot slide at max velocity. We hold our breath and he giggles!!

Sliding with Dad and swinging with Grandpa...the father-son trio (Scot and his Dad are 2 big kids at heart).

Landon is growing, learning, and moving at super charged speed! His mischievous smile makes our heart melt and his big, belly giggles fill the room with excitement. We just can't enough of him!!!
