Garrison is now 20 months old. I can't believe it really and I don't really like to think about it. Along with this toddler status has come many unwelcome behaviors. The main ones are bitting and hitting. But the thing is - he really only bites me and his Aunt Celeste. Why is that?!?!?! He gets so mad at the simplest things and takes it out on my shoulder every time.
Garrison also has a new nickname "swiper". Get it Swiper, just like swiper the fox from Dora, gosh is this what my life has come to?!?! Anyway, Garrison can grab anything before you know it- especially drinks with straws, he loves a straw. His favorite past time is to walk up to the kitchen table flail his arms around and see what treasures he can knock down and play with.
On with the positive- he is super cute and I find it very hard not to hug him all day long! I really would love for him to be a Momma's boy- but I really don't think he is interested.
He can say about 50 words now and can pretty much repeat anything- he sometimes calls me "eminey" meaning Emily, when he copies Ryan. Garrison is also quite the entertainer and LOOOOVVVEEESSS to be the center of attention. Some of his favorite tricks include- walking backwards, standing on one foot, putting on his Daddy's clothes, saying "HEY" as loud as he possbily can to Allie-Parker, and opening doors that have child proof locks on them.
He really is such a joy, it is so much fun to be his Mom and see him grow up into a boy, even though it hurts my heart a little bit.
