14 months

Joe turned 14 months on Saturday. He's growing sooo fast! He is still not walking by himself, but will gladly walk holding our hands. I'm kind of glad he's not walking on his own, because he won't be a baby anymore. I feel like once they start walking, they look so grown up...and Im not wanting to rush that.
During his 13th month of life, he finally started clapping and waving. He still doesn't wave a whole lot, but at least we know he's capable of doing it. He is clapping all of the time now. Here are a list of other things he's doing...

*eating most foods..they do have do to be finger foods as he won't let us feed him anymore. It's very interesting to watch him eat applesauce or yogurt on his own. He's interested in silverware, but not for eating purposes

*his vocabulary is still "mama", "dadda", "hi" & it sounded like "georgie" this morning

*he has started liking to "read" books on his own...at his own pace

*he loves the water

*his naptime is trickier these days...he really still needs 2 naps/day. He takes a really good morning nap, but he's not tired in the afternoon until its too late to put him down...otherwise he's up all night...so we are having more grouchy times

the above video is something I promised his grammy I would post...his 2 newest tricks...clapping and playing with his lip, while making noises (not sure what its called). yes, he is sitting on his pool upside down...that's how he was rolling this morning.
