--Seth recently turned a year and a half!! I can't believe it. With that came a few days of crabiness which i thought for certain meant he was entering his terrible two's, which interestingly i have read and been told that the terrible two's usually start around 18 months. I started reading up on discipline, but since then he has been my sweet little boy again! I think i am still going to read up on it so next time i'll be more prepared!
--This Thanksgiving was the first year that we prepared our very own Thanksgiving Feast. It was just me, Jerry, Seth, Eric and Lauren (sis in law), but it was a very nice day! Jerry and Lauren did most of the cooking and it was delicious!!
--Yesterday morning we woke up to our very first snow of the year and it continued to snow all day and into this morning.
--Seth has begun to say his ABC's and has made it all the way to E!!!! He even does it to the ABC song.
--As Jerry and I were singing "Jingle Bells" to Seth, he started getting into it and blurted out "Jingle Bells".
--Seth's new thing is right after bath at night, he runs out to the living room and sets off all of his musical dancing Christmas animals and we all dance together in a circle holding hands. I am determined to get this on video very soon!
--No longer do I do the reading at bedtime anymore. Seth now likes to "read" to me. He babbles constantly and then points to pictures asking what "this?" is or "that?".
--I am by no means officially saying that Seth is "potty trained" or even close, but as i mentioned in a previous post, he really likes his potty and enjoys sitting on it frequently. He seems to understand that the potty is somehow related to pee pee and poo poo, but i definitely don't think he is ready yet. However, while sitting on it (while wearing a diaper), he did poop, and then one morning i noticed that there was a yellowish liquid in the potty that could only be one thing, but i never noticed him do it the night before.
--Seth has 2 new obsessions: Elmo and "goys"...translation would be toys. I think he would sit and watch Elmo DVDs all day IF we would let him, and now whenever we go to any store he always is on the look out for "goys".
--Seth's daycare has informed us that he climbed the ladder and slid down the slide all by himself. This may not sound like a huge feat, but apparently he was the only one in his class that hasn't done that yet. I think he is just too busy talking to worry about the climbing!! Seth just isn't a climber, which to us isn't such a bad thing!
--Seth continues to make all sorts of animals sounds and can point out all the different animals on his see and say. He is also beginning to point out other body parts besides the eyes, nose, mouth, etc. He now knows arm, leg, hair, toes, foot, etc.
--I'm sure i have left out a lot, but i did try to make this brief. Here are a few recent pics to conclude the post:

Hi Guys. What a great blog! I love the background and pictures. This will be a great way for us to keep up with Seth until we are able to hang out at night in the spring. The Lacks
