My Smart One Year Old!

I haven't posted in a while but...decided I was going to make a conscious effort to start blogging more frequently! So, I had to take some time to brag a little on my precious 15 month old (he will be 15 months old Jan. 30th-- so hard to believe!).

The past few days he has just amazed me with different things. For the longest time (probably a few months), I have tried teaching him where his nose, mouth, eyes, tongue, ears and hair is! I would show him where each body part was by pointing to it. Well, he has just started pointing to EVERYTHING, which is kind of nice as he has begun to point to things he wants! It certainly helps mommy know his needs! So, I decided I would ask him to show me where HIS nose is.... he just sat there and smiled but didn't show me! I then decided I would change it up and so I asked him instead to POINT to Mommy's nose and I guided his hand close to my face without showing him where my nose was and the sweet little guy found his little finger right to my nose. I then asked him to point to Mommy's eyes and he pointed right to my eyes, as well as my ears and hair and his favorite thing to find on Mommy is my tongue! He just giggles when I open my mouth and stick out my tongue and he will literally pry my mouth open with his fingers to find my tongue! It's the funniest thing!

Sometimes Jeff and myself will let Beckett play with our old phones that we no longer use anymore (and sometimes we even give in with our new ones.... Beckett's no fool and certainly knows the difference). He just started putting the phone up to his ear! If I tell Beckett to go get Mommy a diaper, he walks right over to where the diapers are and hands me one. If I tell him to throw something in the trash, he will walk to the trash can, open it and throw away whatever it is I asked him to. He will find the remote for me. If I say lets go take a bath, he will go to the stairs, climb them and walk straight into the bathroom!

I could seriously keep going on and on and on....

However, after typing all of that and bragging on my smart one year old, I just realized that nobody will probably care to even read this except for a select few of you, such as.... family! lol.

Oh well, I'm super proud to be the mommy of my sweet, smart, funny one year old! Being his mom brings me so much joy in life! I feel beyond blessed! :) Can't wait to see what God has in store for him in the future!
