Zach at 19 months

Zachary is 19 months old already!  I can't believe how fast time is flying by - so fast, in fact, that I haven't even had time to update this blog as regularly as I want to.

Zach is quickly becoming one of those crazy toddler boys who runs, climbs, jumps, and thinks it's funny to fall on top of everything!  He's made up his own language and uses very few real words, but we've figured it out and he's able to communicate what he wants.  He loves his blankies - both of them - and has to have them near him, or know where they are, at all times.  He understands, and is listening, to everything we say ... if we say that we're going to take the trash out, he runs to the trash can, points to the trash bags and leads the way outside to the trash bin!  If we say that we're going to take Amae for a walk he's the first one at the front door and always knows where Amae's leash is (good thing, since I usually don't).  He likes to try to do everything big sister does and thinks that all of her toys are the coolest ever.  He refuses to sit in his booster seat, has figured out how to scale up the side of his changing table, and likes to pick out his own clothes.  He's a smart little cookie and we can't wait to hear what comes out of his mouth as soon as he starts talking!
 
No more booster seat for this guy!  Even though he can barely see the top of the table
