12-16 months

Happy Birthday Trent! We had a blast at his "Very Hungry Caterpillar" party. He got his first taste of pizza and cake- he liked the pizza and wasn't too sure about the cake (thanks to Joann who makes that best cakes on earth!)

Super Hero buddies!

Showing us that tantrums don't really start at 2 years old.... it's more like 13 months!

Helping Daddy mow the yard. He did most of the trimming afterwards.

KC Zoo- Trent likes to make all sorts of animal noises. He can do sea lion, elephant, cow, lion, sheep and dog.

See the markers in his hands as he plays on the piano with his cousins Jamila and Benjamin. This boy is obsessed with "colors" - crayons, markers or anything that makes a mark. He can correctly recognize several colors at 15 months. His favorites are yellow and purple.


Mackin Park is one of his favorites. I am going to be so sad when it gets too cold to go outside much. We go to the park 2-3 time a week and he loves the slide and swings.

Group of us went to the Omaha Zoo. We had a great time! Cannot wait to take him when he is a little older so he can really appreciate what he is seeing.

No nap at the zoo and he slept the whole way home. I just love this picture- my Trent is at the end of the rainbow!

First go at spaghetti!

Trent was recovering from a virus on Halloween, so we stayed in at the grandparent's houses. He was an adorable monkey (which is so fitting because of his love for bananas). He enjoyed running to the door when the bell rang and seeing the other children come up to the door for candy.


Trent is still growing like a weed - his 15 month appointment he was 30lbs and 34.5 inches long. These days he loves to read and color. He also loves his baseball tee and will even balance a full sized basketball to hit. Dora the Explorer is the only thing on TV he will watch, we keep it to an episode a day. He tries to lift my shirt in public to talk to the baby! Hopefully once his brother is born he will know there is no baby in there.

We recently moved him into his big boy room (aka the old office). It is a baseball themed room- guess who thought of that?! This week we are working on taking the binkie away for good- it has been rough, but we thought it was best to do it before #2 arrived. Only two more months.

Everyday is an adventure and we are so blessed to have such a sweet and loving little guy!
