Mars is 1 year, 5 months, 3 weeks, and 2 days old!

Please excuse the cracker crumbs on his face...

Lately, Mars has been adding more words to his vocabulary. Here is a running list of what he can say so far:

mama

dada

daddy

wowo (dog)

uh-uhn (no)

no-no
book
ee-oh (the end)
ub (up)

ball

buh-bo (bubble)

bah (bath)

pah-ta (pasta)

I haven't been teaching him any new signs, but since I'm making lists, here's what he can sign so far:

milk

drink

all done

more

eat

baby

cereal

cracker

bird

airplane (sort of...he just flies his hand around in the air)

ouchie/boo boo

wash hands/wash hair

and he can point to his nose, eyes, mouth, and ears

His current favorite food is rice. He can eat a whole plate of plain rice non-stop. To take advantage of this, we made little salmon and veggie rice balls (with cute seaweed cut-out faces and everything), and it was the first time in a long time that he finished his entire meal. He was so proud when we congratulated him on being "all done, all done". :)
