16 months!!!
The other day I said, "What if he just stayed this age forever? He learns a new word every day, but some day he's going to know all the words. And it won't be cute anymore. Let's just keep him like this."
"Like the ghost baby in American Horror Story?" said Chris.
Sigh. No, dear. Not like the dead baby.
Anyway ...
Words:
Momma
Dadda
Daugh (dog)
Buh (bus)
Bubbah (bubbles)
Anana (banana ... sometimes boobies)
Moe (more)
Ah dah (all done)
Nuh nuh (n'night)
No (that one's a little obvious)
Jss (juice)
Shzz (shoes)
Huh (hug)
Bah (ball)
Ma (mine? me?)
I've heard rumors that he's said "milk" and "Mariana" (the teacher), but I'll believe it when I hear it.
Signs:
More
All done
Milk
Juice
Food
Cracker
Boobie (looks a lot like juice)
Dadda
... so it's a lot of food ... and Dadda. awesome.
New skills:
He can push the rocking chair up to the side of couch and use it to climb up.
He can put the shoes away in the shoe bin.
He can take off momma and dadda's shoes and socks.
He can turn on and off the TV with the remote, change the settings on the AC with its remote, and pause Blue's Clues, forcing me out the shower so I can fix it.
He "walks the dog" by grabbing onto the leash and walking around.
Sits down and reads books. Sometimes books that are way too old for him.
He still likes to clean. But he gets in way more now.
He still loves his girlfriends. He kisses Isabella when we arrive at school (and Jarod too, now that you mention it).
He LOVES being upside down. I regularly walk around the house with him flung around my shoulders like a mink.
He's still a fantastic eater. He eats everything that we eat. Sometimes not a gracefully as we eat, but he seems to love it.

Other fun things ...
He met his great-grandparents for the first time!
Four generations of Chamberland men!
He rode Grampy's tractor
We've been watching A LOT of Olympics!
That's also meant a lot of snuggle time on the couch for both baby and puppy!
We made a kiddy pool in the front courtyard.
And I still haven't cut his hair. We will soon, I promise. It's getting a little out of hand.
Oh, and we bought a lock for the toilet. We realized that saying "Don't put TOYS in the TOIlet was sort of confusing. Also I don't want to have to shell out for another iPhone.
