Can you believe that I am 16 months old?

Brooks was 16 months old yesterday. I know that I say this all the time, but he truly is more and more fun everyday. He is picking up so many words. People are amazed at all the things that he can say. His latest words are, "Airpoo (airplane), pacicle (popscicle), ice, tall, Elmo, ish (fish), Dissie (Dixie - our next door neighbor's dog) and Howie (Hallie - our 7 year old next door neighbor.) He is still sleeping great at night. Brooks goes to bed usually around 8:30 and sleeps to about 7:00. He is not a late sleeper, I think he gets that from me! He still takes a great morning nap (lately around 2 to 2.5 hours), but the afternoon nap is not as good. I usually lay him down about 3:30 or 4:00 and he will usually talk and sing until I go in and get him. Sometimes he will fall asleep, but lately I have left him for about an hour and he talks the entire time! He doesn't play with many toys. He just wants a ball or water (solid or liquid form). He still loves to help us - especially clean. He will grab a rag and dust, he loves to vaccum, and cleaning the windows............these last 16 months have flown by and have been so much fun!
