A year and a half!!

18months - what? It is so hard for me to believe that my baby boy is closer to two than one now!! How in the world did that happen so quickly?
He has grown up so much these past couple months and is so much more a little boy than a baby. :(
He has developed quite a silly and entertaining personality. He loves to run and dance around like a goofball before bed entertaining us.
One of my favorite things he does is he will back up and start beeping like a truck! Beep....beep...beep - it is hilarious!
He has a major obsession with the movies Cars and Cars 2 - I swear we watch them every day and he acts like each time he watches is the first time he has seen it! Laughing out loud a parts even!
We have been trapped in the snow so much this past month and Dominic is so ready to be able to play outside.
 
We have been going to the Y on Saturdays and letting the kids swim. Holy moly! What a little fish Dom is! He has no fear of the water and will jump in to you and go under water over and over again. It is going to be a fun summer at the pool this year!!
He loves to give fist bumps and makes sure everyone at the table gets one - including himself!
He also loves to show us his muscles by raising up his arms and going - grrr!
Dominic is a big boy - 34'' tall and 29 lbs - which both just happen to put him in the 85% for both.
He is in a size 8 shoe -- if you don't have a toddler this might seem like a big deal but his feet are huge!! If they are any indication on the future he is going to be a big guy! (basketball player maybe?)
He is really getting longer and thinning out - he is starting to look so much like Elena did at this age.
He adores his sister still and she is getting so much better at including him and playing with him. It is so fun to see them interact and play together.
He loves to sit and relax and watch cartoons with Grandpa.
He also has a new favorite cartoon - Paw Patrol - he will even ask for it by name - "Paw, Paw, Paw - pwease!" So glad that is Elena's new favorite too! ;)
We've been having him paint and craft with Elena more and he loves it! He gets very serious and focused.
 
He is quite the little dare devil - he will climb up on pretty much anything! We have to keep an eye on him every second.
He has been sleeping a lot lately! I think he may be going through a growth spurt or something - he is sleeping 12 hrs at night and has been taking 3-4 hour naps in the afternoon! Crazy!
He pretty much always has a car or truck of some sort in his hand. He loves any vehicle and plays with them all day long.
He likes to relax - he lays on the floor to play with his cars all the time. I also find him randomly laying on the floor too. He loves the little kid sized couch and will sit and watch Paw Patrol (or Cars of course) as long as we will let him!
He loves to rough house and wrestle - his favorite thing is playing super baby though!
 
He loves the bath - and will ask repeatedly throughout the day if he can have one! He will come up and say Bath? Bath? and run to the bathroom. So funny!
He is very ornery and even though it is a little blurry, I think this last picture captures his personality to a T!
 
I just can't believe you are officially closer to 2 than 1 now!!  Happy 1/2 birthday little man!
