Zeke lately

Zeke is 16 months now. It is hard to believe I know! This isn't a doctor's visit month, so I have no new stats, but I wanted to share some of the fun things he is doing:
*loves to smile with his eyes closed
*eats amazing some days, and not so well on others
*still loves Ben and likes to point to his nose
*is working on moving to a quiet crib time and 1 nap instead of 2 naps... (not sure how I feel about this one)
*stacks blocks
*continues to LOVE airplanes and balls
*likes to drive trucks and cars and make a vroom sound
*looks for dogs everywhere
*reads books all the time
*signs help when he needs it but also when he just doesn't want to do something for himself (like when a ball is sitting a little ways away from him but he doesn't want to get up and get it...)
*points to pictures and names people in them
*gives kisses and hugs
*loves to be outside and runs to the door
*greets Spence after work by sitting in his chair by the window and watching him come home
*leans in to bump heads for "noggin"
*walked into his class at church on Saturday with no prompting or tears :-)
*could care less about watching tv (I love this about him!!)
*loves visiting daddy's office- especially when the cornhole is set up
*repeats words after us
*knows where his eyes, nose, belly, belly button, hair, head, fingers, and toes are
*definitely showing signs of being a strong willed child
*will give "knuckles"- fist pound
*throws everything out of his crib after he wakes up in the morning or from his nap, and then begins to cry because he wants it all back
*goes to the pantry when he is hungry
*tries to pull the juice out of the fridge- he seriously only gets a splash of juice from me, someone else must be sneaking him more or something because he is seriously addicted!
*says: mama, dada, Ben, Ze (Zeke), yaya, nana, bampa (grandpa), pawpaw, bubba, belle, Maaa (Matt), Towey (Tori), fan, light, IA (Isaac), tree, Jesus (and tries to sing Jesus Loves Me at bedtime with us), baby, ball, airplane, apple, boon (balloon), shoes, knee, nose, sahh (sock), bath, basketball, down, boo, all done, UhBer (Amber), sophie, car, truck, berry, chicken, frenfry (french fry), tantoo (thank you), ketup (ketchup), jui (juice), wawa (water), go, mil (milk), moo, quack, baa, meow, no, yeah, roar (anytime he sees a lion), bir (bird), boom, cacker (cracker), cookie, blo (block), tick (stick), cheese, nack (snack), pees (please), mo (more), yuv you (I love you), ho ho ho, mey chismas (Merry Christmas), hot, pho (phone), gobagobagoba (gobble, gobble, gobble,) bee (blanket), buh (book), beh (for anything he doesn't know)- and I am sure more, but I can't think of anymore right now...
Here are some fun pictures



Check out this block tower! He was so proud he built it all by himself

Daddy stick and Zeke stick

Not sure what was in this cup that made him lay back and lose a shoe...

Cheese!

Hmmm... Ben didn't like it but maybe I will

Testing out everthing that belongs to Ben

I like all of those pictures, especially the one where he is his getting tipsy off of his juice. :) And I can't believe he can say all of those things! He's so cute.
