14 Months and obsessed ;)



Van is 14 months today! I have said this like a trillion times.. but WHERE DOES THE TIME GO??
Recently Vander has a new obsession. Actually I take that back- he has a whole list of obsessions... They are as follows....

-Chocolate Milk... a twist on his favorite (milk) has turned him into an obessed chocolate milkaholic
-Lucky Charms- He will have a full meltdown if he really wants some
-Fry Frys (as daddy calls them)- He LOVES french fries. I can't imagine where he gets that from.. He eats them by the handful... I also don't know where he gets THAT from ;)
-Sleeping in random places in his room- His new favorite place, behind his crib in the corner
-Playing in the toilet - Disgusting- but its true....
-Showers/Baths- this also goes along with running around the house naked before his baths. He giggles with joy as he runs freely all over the upstairs
-Books- this has been a favorite for many months- but the obsession continues
-Zebra Blankee- I cannot wash this blanket unless hes awake and when he sees me put it in the washer its devastating. He carries it with him all over the house- usually around his neck or over his head.
-Going outside- He walks to the front door and back door all the time going "eh eh eh" and pointing at the handle. All he wants is to run outside.

Beyond obsessions- This is what Van man is up to these days....
-He is VERY busy- LOVES making huge messes in a matter of minutes
-He loves his daddy and adores wrestling with him
-He loves the doggies- Mostly beating them with foreign objects- but its not rare to see him hugging Max or just laying on him
-Cartoons keep his attention for about 2 minutes- Hed rather watch animals or shows with real people
-He knows what he wants. He is strong headed and stubborn
-He is a jabber box. The kid NEVER stops jabbering. He will get close to your face and talk to you just so you know hes talking to you and that you're paying attention
-He loves to RUN and even more being chased
-He couldn't care less about play places. In fact, he usually runs OUT of the playplaces at the mall so we have to watch him carefully
-He is very independant and can keep himself busy during the day for hours
-He is terrified of toys that flash red or make loud crazy noises
-He is a cuddle bug and loves arm, back and leg scratches
-He makes us laugh over and over each day. Hes a silly boy!
-He is just TWO months away from being a big brother and has absolutely NO idea :) But he will be an amazing big brother!
-He is the BEST little buddy in the world and we adore him more than words can express!

Some of his most common and most recent nicknames...
-Boo
-Boozer
-Boozey
-Duder
-Van
