19 Months Already!

Hey Everyone,
I hope this finds all of you well. As I type, Adam has finally passed out for his nap (or did about 30 minutes ago before I got distracted by the internet). He's getting to that age where he'll pitch an absolute fit when you try to get him to nap if you don't catch him at the exact perfect time. I know a lot of you don't believe he has it in him, but I assure you, he does.

The last week or two have been pretty nice, though Thomas has had a lot on his plate with school starting back up again and work. Adam always runs up to him and gives him a big hug when he gets home each night.

I finished the mural in Adam's room, which you can read about here if you haven't, and he loves it. He enjoys tottering over to it and pointing out the different characters and things he can reach. Sometimes I pick him up so he can get a better look at the rest of it.

He's definitely getting more independent these days. As of two days ago, he refuses to take your hand to enter or exit the front door, determined to do it on his own each time. He also likes to play chase in the front yard....or in other words, he likes to run around the yard and make me chase after him when he goes in the neighbors' yards or too close to the street. Luckily, he enjoys flopping down in the grass and playing with the leaves after a little bit, so that's nice.

Of course, he hasn't lost his giving nature. He spends as much time as you'll let it putting around the house with these little cars his Abuelita/Great-grandma gave him, complete with his little toddler version of "vroom vroom." To him though, this isn't completely a solitary thing. He insists that you take one of the cars and vroom it around some, no matter whether you're cooking dinner, showering, or on the commode.

Well, I know y'all are waiting for pictures, so here you go. Again, if you follow me on Instagram, there won't be a whole lot that are new.
