He is talking up a storm these days! He says Mama, Dada, Bubba (with an emphasis on the second syllable...this is what he calls Garrison), Ball, Wow, Uh-Oh, More (well it kind of sounds like moy but we know what he means!), Boat, Milk, Quack Quack (more like what! what!) and Bye. He is definitely not as verbal as Garrison was but he is catching up fast!
He loves the water - being in the pool or the bath tub. He puts his face in, blows bubbles and is just super comfortable hanging out in the water.
He loves being in the dirt! He is such a boy when it comes to this. He just crawls around in it, sits in it and sometime even eats it! If we are outside for any length of time he is generally covered in the stuff :) And speaking of being outside, he loves that too. He cries SO hard when we take him in. It's quite dramatic and traumatizing!
Davis is an EATER. Seriously, the kid probably eats about twice as much food as Garrison on a daily basis. It's quite impressive! His favorite meal is probably my spaghetti but is loves pasta in general.
Davis is also Mr. Independent. Now that he's walking he wants to be on his own two feet, going in the direction of his choosing. And the kid also doesn't mind playing by himself. He can just go off and entertain himself where as Garrison wanted someone to entertain him at this age.
And I can't forget to mention the beloved pacifer. Oh how Davis loves it! I wouldn't necessarily say that he absolutely needs it most of the time, but he sure does like it. I'm sure I'll have to take it away at some point...but not yet!
And Davis LOVES his big brother. He says Bub-ba! more than he says any other word. He says it right when he wakes up...so sweet! And even through all the abuse that Garrison puts him through, Davis thinks he's pretty awesome. They really have a lot of fun together at this point. Garrison can make him laugh so hard! As a mother, it is seriously one of the most amazing things to watch their friendship and love for each other grow.
Here are some recent pics of Davis...
