18 months

A year and half!  Do I have to say that my baby is already halfway to being 2?

We had a whirlwind November and December has been crazy as well.  In November we were lucky enough to have my family come and celebrate Thanksgiving here in Birmingham.  Mimi, Doc, and Aunt Clare all made the trip, and I know Andrew was especially happy to get to spend time with the Dempsey side of the family.  Lots of hugs, laughs, and cuddles were had by all.

Doc might be his favorite person!

We also enjoyed our first tripe to the McWane Center.  Andrew had a good time, but we had a problem with not wanting to leave certain areas with fun toys/games to move on to others.  He especially had a great time playing in the Clifford the Big Red Dog exhibit.

One of the other fun things we did was meet Santa for the first time.  This Santa was at a small store which is why I think Andrew did so well.  The next time we met Santa, however, was a much different story.

Andrew is finally starting to talk much more.  He can say Mimi, Doc, Papa, but still can't say Gram.  I am sure it will come soon.  He also learned to say his own name which comes out something like "Andew."  He continues to be a pretty good eater, and now that his molars have finally come in, he is enjoying chips and black bean dip when we go eat Mexican food!

More to come in the 19 month post!
