• Words: Dada, Ruru (Ruby), uh-oh, oust (outside), ocks (socks), "Baa" (when you see just about any animal), Mama (FINALLY!), up, please, and you sign "more"
• You fold your hands for prayers now
• One of your favorite things is to go out the doggie door and play in the backyard
• Your current favorite toys are cars. You love to make the sounds that Daddy makes when you play with them. You will play trains with him for a long time.
• You are getting really good at feeding yourself (cottage cheese at this very moment!) and you always want a utensil.
• You love to eat what Mommy and Daddy are eating
• You love to feed Ruby a treat.
• You love to do pretty much anything Ruby is doing, you will push her out of her bed so you can lay down in it
• You have a great love of books already. This makes Mommy very happy
• You love animals, especially dogs, and like to make noises at them
• You love to have talking/screaming matches with Daddy
• When one of us comes home at the end of the day you run to us for a hug
• After we change your dirty diaper I put it in a bag. Then you want to take it "oust" all by yourself. You carry the bag downstairs, to the door and then down the sidewalk to the garbage can. 
• We traded you to a convertible car seat (still rear-facing) for our trip to Yellowstone and you loved it. There was so little fussing the entire trip! You really liked being able to see so much
• Today you have been saying "Up, please" for the first time ever. You want to sit at the table with Mommy. It is so precious
• You sleep about 12 1/2 hours at night. We are currently transitioning from two naps to one. 
• You wear size three diapers still. We just put away your nine month clothes
• You love to sit behind the steering wheel and "drive" the jeeps
• You are very good at having alone playtime. You are starting to show some small interest in playing with others, except Daddy whom you LOVE to play with
