Damien Is 15 Months Old!

Well, our little boys keeps on growing and growing. 15 months - that's just crazy. D turned 15 months of Friday the 13th - lucky Damien. He's a very active boy right now. He loves to walk, run, and get into everything. Some of his favorite things right now include balls, balloons, bubbles, watching Elmo (aka "El-Mono") on TV, reading his Elmo Christmas book, cats (aka "Meow's"), dogs, crackers, cars, slides, sand, singing and dancing (row row your boat the absolute favorite) and hide and seek. He's getting into art - trying some painting and markers and stampers for the first time. He likes it, but like most things, only for a few minutes until he's ready for the next thing. A SHORT attention span. Which makes entertaining him a challenge sometimes, especially when it is raining. D is an outdoor kid, he's so happy to be playing outside in the dirt, rocks, leaves, running up and down the street looking for the neighborhood dogs and cats, yelling at cars. So, our go to plan right now involves as much outdoor play as possible.

Damien is very verbal in both Spanish and English. His words include shoe and zapato, adios and bye bye, hello and hola, agua and water, bananna, apple, "ra ra" for raspberries, eggs, dog, cat, momma, dadda, no, yes, si, yeah, all right, uh oh, mess, avocado, crackers, cheese, night night (which means both his blankie and bedtime), bubbles, ball, car, music, mono (monkey), mucus, owie, book, baby, balloon, meow, up (which means both up and down), bath, outside, slide, choo choo, and bottle. He likes to repeat what we say - dangerous at times!

An expressive guy - here he is telling Momma that he needs help down the stairs.

Shocked and excited to see the Choo Choo (Aka BART)

Loving the BART commute to the City for daycare.

Damien's best friend Elmo.

Our handsome devil.
