Charlie - 19 months

Today our little man is 19 months old!  Oh how time flies!  Charlie is so energetic and full of life that we can hardly keep up with him.  His new favorite thing to do is playing with his tractors in the dirt outside.  He will spend hours outside until we make him come in.  His vocabulary has increased a whole lot and he can now say three or four word phrases.  Last night I gave him a snack and he replied "But I don't wanna eat it!"  I couldn't believe it when I heard it!  So much in fact, I made him repeat it 3 different times just to make sure I heard him right.  He loves tractors, school buses, "big" trucks, police cars, and fire trucks!  Pretty much anything that's big or has flashing lights, he's amazed by it.  He greets everyone by giving them "five" or "knuckles".  He loves helping me clean house - laundry, sweeping, picking up things off the floor and putting them where they belong - it's awesome!  So glad he's gonna be a neat freak like me. He's growing up so fast - I really wish he'd slow down so we can enjoy this time with him more!
