23-24 Months

The last month of Dude's year as a one year old came to a close recently.

We had a mother/son date night at Mandola's when daddy was out of town

And went to the Children's Museum with Ella.

He loved this area.  We will need to check it out again!

I game him my oldie (but AWESOME) play food and he has enjoyed playing with it in his kitchen.

He started climbing everything in the last couple weeks.

And, the first tv programming to capture his attention was the movie '13 Going on 30'. Hum... I think I will tease him forever : ) He watched it for a good hour. 

We've ventured into the world of finger painting with great success!

But I think his favorite part is the spray down : )

And, finally-- our dapper little dude during a shopping trip for daddy.

I found the hat in the store and let him wear it during our shopping : )

How couldn't I?  It matched perfectly!
