17 months

We had a great weekend!!!  Graham's parents came into town, since the weather was so beautiful on Friday we decided to go to the zoo.  Barrett was fascinated by some of the animals and then other times he loved the stones on the ground, buttons on the activity walls, and sticks on the ground.  One animal he loved is the penguin.  He kept calling them ducks, and would even try to kiss them when they would swim up to the glass.  That was the highlight of the trip!!  It was so cute. 

Barrett spends his time dancing, playing blocks, reading books, and just running around.  He is saying quit a few words.  He says duck, Mommy, Daddy, pup-pup (his puppy), nite nite, he's said please once.  We're working on more, but he's progressing nicely. 
He loves being outside!  Even if he's just running around, he's happy.  He already knows where his boundries are, and every once in a while he'll try to test us to see if he can get away with going over them.  He loves being with his Daddy too, everytime Graham goes into the garage to work on something, Barrett wants to be out there with him to help.  When it's time for Mommy to cook, he wants to be up there watching me.  So lately I've let him help mix things up, and that just makes his day.  Hopefully I have a little chef on my hands! He is just a happy and sweet little boy!!!
