Crawford-- you are such a joy! Every day I wake up and just can't wait to see your happy face! You love playing and you are on the go at all times. When you snuggle with us at night before bedtime it just melts my heart and we just can't get enough of you! Below are some highlights from this past month:
You always walk me to my car when I am going back to work and you wave and blow kisses!
You love the gas pump that goes with your cozy coupe and when we ask you to go pump some gas you know exactly what to do!
turned a boring oil change to a fun adventure in the parking lot!
Playing with daddy!
Aunt Alexis and Aunt Jenny came to visit and we went downtown to the farmers market.
You caught a foul ball and the Drive baseball game and you tried to throw it back and got a good laugh out of the crowd when you launched in on the top of the dugout
You love love downtown. We take you on walks and you love playing in all the fountains. This was your first time at the "splash pad" type falls and you had a ball putting your foot over the spickets and we would laugh when it would get you in the face. You kept running back for more.
We went to visit Aunt Brittany and Hailey in Chalotte. We spent the day at Birkdale and played in the splash pad, took a walk, and got yogurt. I can't wait for you to chase your little girlfriend around!
You are trying to give her a kiss in this picture!

You are at the age where you love love putting on our shoes. You will try for 10 minutes to get them on and then you start cruising all over the house in them.
We often take you to the different parks around Greenville and you run around like a wild animal. You will fly down the slides and chase the big kids and you always have a ball!
We took you for your first dental visit and it went much better than we expected! You sat in my lap and laid your little head back while she polished up your teeth. You got a toy at the end and you had so much fun playing in the waiting room that you didn't want to leave!
20 Month Stats:
Weight- 25.5 pounds
Height - 33 inches
Diapers- Size 4
Clothing -- size 24 months and 18-24 months (though these are getting too short!)
Shoes- size 6
- Sleep- You had an interesting month of sleep. You went through a 2 week phase of waking up at 4 am almost every other night and then would come in our bed and sleep till 8 am. If you didn't wake up in the middle of the night it seems like you were up by 7 am which is early for you. We usually have you to sleep by 9 pm and you don't protest bedtime just waking up for some odd reason. We think it has passed! You don't like naps much and we can usually only get you to sleep for about an hour so definitely some sleep habit changes for our normally great sleeper!
- Eating-- well you are a very inconsistent eater. Some days you will eat anything we put in front of you (even salad!) other days you will eat some fruit and a piece of bread. You like all fruit and your slice of bread, pizza, and chicken and other than that you are very hit and miss.
- You love outside and will run to the door multiple times a day trying to get out (when we were visiting Brittany you opened her garage door, got down the stairs, and ran to the backyard and she lives on a lake so we went sprinting when we figured out that you got out!)
- You say a few new words- juice, ice, duck, yes (essss) and your very favorite word a tie between nooo and nana
- You are obsessed with nana (could it be that she gives you cookies, ice cream, and milkshakes on a daily basis?!) You wake up asking for her and anytime I ask you who we are going to see you say "nanaaaa" Of course nana goes with "bom-paw" and you absoultely love him and how much times he spends loving on you!
- You discovered how to you the sprayer on the hose and love going outside to play with the hose.
- You have gotten to play in several bounce houses of all different sizes and you are obsessed you can climb to the top of the big ones and fly down the slides
- You still grab our finger and want to take us everywhere to show us what you want
- You know the difference between all sorts of animals--sea animals and the normal farm animals and most animal sounds.
- You had your second hair cut this past month
- You are obseeeeessed with Mickey and literally zone everything else out when it is on. We can't wait to take you back to Disney!
