why yes, that is the best laying down picture i got.talan turned 20 months old today. and i wondered, how much longer am i going to do this every month post?! probably until he's two and then maybe every 6 months...or something like that. or maybe i'll continue....123 months...that could be fun.
talan is continuing to improve upon the art of the tornado. he loves to make a mess. leave him in a room for about 2 minutes and every toy, and non toy, will be spread across the entire floor. i have cleaned out the basement at least two times now getting rid of things that don't seem to get played with but still make a huge mess. there is still plenty for him to find to tear apart though.
i was scared to death to put up the christmas tree this year. but surprisingly he hasn't really bothered with it....too much. mom gave him a drum set ornament this year and he always looks up at it and says "bang bang" because once we let him drum on it with a pen. i came home the other nite to find that he did break one ornament and was playing with several others. but it's nothing like i thought it would be. thankfully!
i started wrapping presents the other evening and last nite wrapped some toys for my bff's children. since we will be celebrating christmas with them next friday, i decided to leave those presents under the tree. while putting them under there i thought about talan. then decided he really hasn't opened too many presents in his lifetime and at thanksgiving he couldn't have cared less to open up his ornament so i figured i'd be safe. well....about 15 minutes ago i went upstairs to find he had completely unwrapped one of the gifts. i mean completely. all of the paper was off. i thought he tried opening the others, but he didn't. just the one.
talan had a fever a couple of weeks ago but no other real symptoms with it. after a couple of days the fever was gone but he remained incredibly whiny and clingy. i decided to bring him in to the dr. to make sure it wasn't an ear infection since thanksgiving was just 2 days away. they looked in his ears and said they were all clear (to the shock of me and the dr.) and then they started to look in his mouth. right then i remembered that three weeks earlier i had strep so i mentioned it to the dr. at that point she just decided to take a strep culture just to be safe but she really didn't think he had it. 5 minutes later the test came back positive. the dr. said he shouldn't have gotten it so long after i had it...it should have been about 3 days later. but the test showed a weak positive meaning he was JUST getting it. leave it to talan. but thankfully i did bring him in so he wasn't contagious on thanksgiving! and nobody else in the family has gotten it.
talan has seemed to lose his appetite lately and isn't eating very well at all. he rarely eats a real breakfast. he usually just chooses to drink his milk and walk around eating fruit loop cereal straws. although i have gotten him to sit and eat some oatmeal a few times. for a couple of days he was on a grilled cheese kick for lunch. but just a couple of days. most of the time he'll eat some cheese, maybe some crackers and some turkey. occasionally he'll eat some apple, but many times he chews it and then spits it out. that's fun. he used to have no problem eating chicken with us at dinner but he doesn't seem to eat very much of that anymore either. he will usually eat chicken nuggets though. and he LOVES tomatoes. loves them.
he still wakes up around 7am, although the past week or so he's been getting up later. one morning i walked hayden to the bus stop at 8:45 and he still wasn't up. or if he was, he wasn't yelling to get out yet. he still takes a good nap from about 1-3 or 3:30 and then goes to bed between 7 and 8. some nites you think he should be tired and we'll put him in his crib and he'll just cry. and he won't stop crying. many of those evenings i'll take him out, let him play for awhile and then put him back in and he goes right down. so he's pretty good about letting us know when he really does want to sleep.
talan is quite the independent toddler, most of the time. he knows what he wants and he does it, no matter what. if he doesn't get to do it, he screams. and screams loud. he has perfected the tantrum. this calm, happy baby has turned into a raging tantrum toddler. he fits in perfectly in this house now.
dave told me a story the other week about talan harassing hayden. apparently they were all in the basement and talan had a ball in his hand (which he can hold with one hand because his hands are so freakin' big) which he would act like he was going to throw but just hold it right in hayden's face. hayden would yell "don't throw that at me!!!" and talan would do it again. and again. and again. dave finally let hayden in on the fact that talan was not going to throw the ball, he was just messing with him. and the thing is, i don't even know that talan learned that from hayden.
talan loves to go bye bye. at least for a little while. many times while we're out he lets it be known that he is ready to go...but the act of getting ready to go bye bye is usually a breeze with him cuz he's excited to go somewhere. so he'll happily sit and let us put on his socks and shoes and coat and hat. the other evening we were getting ready to go to dinner for dave's birthday. i went and picked out a pair of shoes for talan (the wide sized ones as they are the easiest to get on those logs of his) but he picked up a different brown shoe and handed it to me. i thanked him and told him i already had shoes so i put the brown one away. he then threw one of his fits, pulled the basket back out, found both brown shoes and handed them to me still yelling. i decided not to fight it so i put the shoes i already had away and said ok, let's go put them on. he then looked in the basket and at the shoes in my hand to make sure i didn't pull the 'ol switch-a-roo on him and that he would, in fact, be going to dinner in the brown corduroy shoes he had picked out. 20 months old and he's telling me what he wants to wear. hayden still doesn't do that...usually.
he continues to try talking more and more. most of which most outsiders wouldn't understand...most of which we can understand most of the time. he says "star" and was so funny after the tree was up and he came into the living room the first time and saw it. he just kept looking up saying "ooooo..dahhhr!" over and over. he now also LOVES elmo and says elmo perfectly. he also says dante, although he could be saying kitty, but i think it's dante. and he says something for shoe, but it pretty much sounds like what he says for train...it's not really even a word, he just makes this sound from his throat. he finally has started saying mama again. when he sees a picture of dave he'll say "there's dada" but it doesn't come out quite as clearly as that. and of course he always says "bang" as his favorite toy is still drumsticks. he says "all done" pretty clearly now as well and still makes tons of "oooo" "ahhhh" noises at all of the appropriate times which is hilarious. he says "pip" for chip which is probably my favorite. he also says "bibee" for binky. and he will say "cheese" when you take his picture or at lunchtime when he actually wants cheese.
his newest thing is skateboarding. last year hayden got one for his birthday. they typically used to just roll around on it, but recently hayden has been trying to stand on it. not sure if talan saw that or if he just decided to try it on his own, but he now will stand on the skateboard and walk off of it as it's moving under him. and he almost never falls. he has perfect balance. it's ridiculous how good he actually is on that skateboard.
he continues to love to dance. he loves watching thomas, yo gabba gabba and the imagination movers. he still loves his baths but hates having his hair washed. he loves playing in the basement. he loves playing on his pretend computer, especially when someone else is playing on theirs...but he'd rather the real deal. he loves music. he loves messes. he loves going outside and wants to get "down" no matter what the weather is. he loves going to target and seeing the "balls" outside and saying "ball" over and over again. he loves his binky and blanket although i know it's about time we start only allowing the binky in the crib only....but it's just so convenient to shut him up! he loves taking all of the movies out upstairs which i believe i hear him doing right this second. he loves taking the cushions off of the couch. he loves picking up the phone and pretending his talking and laughing with someone...but he won't say a word if someone is actually on the other end. he loves jumping on our bed. he loves playing on hayden's leapster video game. he loves trying to walk up the stairs instead of crawl up them. he loves brushing his teeth. he LOVES to give five's and to dap up. he loves to give kisses with a real kissing sound effect. he loves justin. he loves to jump into people's arms. he loves my dad. he loves to take the batteries out of the dvd controller. he loves cell phones and recently called dennis varty where apparently hayden took the phone and started talking to him.
he hates sitting for anything, even a meal. he hates being told no. he still isn't a fan of cold wipes. he hates being put in his carseat when he's not ready...and he'll stiffen up so that you can't buckle him in. he refuses to talk on demand. or do any of his trick on demand for that matter. he hates root beer. on the few occasions that jessica has given him some he makes a horrible face and sticks out his tongue. he acts shy around people when he first sees them by turning his head away and rolling his eyes so he can't see them. there just aren't a ton of things that he hates. although there are plenty of times during the day that he throws a fit because he hates something...but that's mostly the hates being told no thing.
even with all of the screaming and tantrums, talan is still a very good and happy baby with a hilarious personality. he says things, walks a certain way, or makes certain faces at the exact moment he should in a situation. he really is a funny kid. he keeps us moving all day long and he makes our house nosier than it was before....and it was plenty noisy before.
i'm so excited for this christmas and to watch him take it all in. i have a feeling we won't get a very good santa picture this year, but it will be a memorable one! speaking of pictures...i'll have to take on talan and the bear pictures after nap.
happy 20 months, baby talan! we love you!
baby talan turned 19 months old today. i really feel like i just wrote his 18 month blog and i don't have much to say this time around, even though he's ever changing.
talan has pretty much lost his appetite. he usually does not like to eat at all first thing in the morning. just likes to have his milk and roam around for awhile. then when he does want something to eat for breakfast, he doesn't want to sit and eat it. he'll just grab a bowl and box of cereal and hand them to me. i'll pour it and he'll walk me (with the bowl) out to the living room where he will then eat, and spill, until i put it all away not able to take one more crumby mess. the other morning i made myself some oatmeal and figured i'd see if he wanted some too. turns out he did. and he wanted more this morning. he was actually quite pleasant sitting in his chair with hayden while eating his cold cereal (the crunch berries only from the generic captain crunch cereal) and oatmeal.
lunchtime usually doesn't go much better. there are some days he'll eat an entire jr. lunchable which consists of mini ritz crackers, little chunks of turkey and small strips of cheese. but he much prefers throwing it across the kitchen and crumbling the crackers into his lap. of course the second he gets down from the table he wants to eat something in the living room. doesn't ever like to sit, this one.
dinner time is the same. he'll eat a very tiny bit and then shake his hands, kind of the way you should to say "all done" in sign language and also say "aaa duuuuuu" so well that i think even an outsider would understand him.
he loves to use a fork. if you can't get him to eat something, but then stab it with a fork, he'll typically start eating again. i've slowly tried letting him use a spoon, but he's not so good at it and he would rather a fork anyway. so he might be 15 before he is able to use a spoon. oh well, he leaves way too many other messes for me to clean up, i don't need another one.
another thing about mealtime is that we moved his highchair back down to the basement and he is now sitting strictly in his booster seat. mostly because our kitchen is WAY too small and the highchair was just always in the way. but he seems to enjoy being at the actual table with the rest of us instead of sitting behind us all the time. we usually like it too. usually.
i am convinced that talan permanently lost the word "mama" when he learned the word "dada". he does, however, know exactly who "mama" is now. when asked to point people out he knows who mama, dada, hayden, tina, justin, jessica, papa, grandma, jenn and rainah are (don...i don't think we even have a picture of you! new family pictures need to happen soon!). he says "dada" often and perfectly clearly. in fact, anytime his binky is in his mouth he removes it in order to say it that much better. and lately, anytime hayden enters a room talan will run over to him, pointing, saying "hhhhaaaa ennnnn" in case we forgot.
he knows a lot of animal noises now and i can't ever talk about having chicken for dinner without hearing a "bach bach" behind me. he moos, meows, woofs, growls, peeps, tweets, scratches his arms and makes some kind of high pitched monkey sound, lifts his arm above his head and somewhat trumpets like an elephant, claps his hands and barks like a seal, chomps and makes a biting sound for a shark, and opens and closes his mouth to be a fish.
i have noticed that when we start to sing the abc's he sounds as if he is singing along. and he has become quite animated when he picks up an old cell phone and runs around the house jabbering away to whoever is on it...usually dada, but many times papa. i usually don't dare say it's justin as he will then run to the window looking for him and calling his name.
his separation anxiety has gotten a little worse, but he always seems to calm down once we leave. we haven't been called out of church yet, but they have had to take him out of the nursery and walk him around at times. he now goes not only on sunday's but 2 thursdays a month as well when i got to mops...so i'm hoping that will help him out a little. he has even cried when i've left him with mom before, which never used to happen. the other day mom came over to watch him while i went to the dr. and when she came in the house he just sat in my lap and wouldn't even look at her. he does that with most people that come to the house and i think it's because he thinks i'm going to leave him. once he realizes i'm staying and so are they, he opens right up.
talan is LOUD. he makes himself known all day long. his temper has gotten worse and i'm hoping it's strictly a "terrible two's" kind of thing and not something that continues the rest of his life. he does still tend to get over things quicker than what hayden did/does, but not as quickly as what he used to. he throws himself anytime he hears "no" or you don't do something quick enough. i honestly can't believe he hasn't started bleeding from his head yet as he's banged it MANY times by throwing himself down.
dave recently started putting him in his crib if he starts screaming about something. today it happened two or three times. shortly after getting out of his crib he started to throw another fit. he threw himself down and started to scream. i asked if he wanted to go back to his crib and suddenly he stopped screaming. he continued laying there all dramatic like but never did scream again. ahhh, maybe this will work!
he continues to LOVE music and dancing and drumming. today while listening to a song he purposely drummed along directly on the beat 4 times in a row. dave and i just looked at each other and said....that really is totally impressive. this kid is gonna make us rich someday. he's USUALLY pretty good about not beating on things he shouldn't with his drumsticks so i let him run around the house with them. most think it's not the best idea in the world but then they don't have to live with his screaming when i take them away, do they?!
he loves the show yo gabba gabba and dances along with all of the kids. there is one song where they sing "wiggle wiggle wiggle go! wiggle wiggle wiggle go!" and then they sing "hold still" he wiggles all around and then will freeze when they sing hold still. it's hilarious. one day i'll be smart enough to get it on tape.
he continues to go to bed around 7 at nite, wakes up at 7am...usually a little earlier and takes a nap at 1, waking up around 3:30 or so. there have been many mornings where it looks like he really misses his morning nap....and so do i!
he likes to be read to. for a bit at least. but will turn the page whenever he is ready, not necessarily when it's time, and that's annoying. his favorite book is a little tool book and a my friends tigger and pooh book about the seasons. he also still loves to get out the wheels on the bus book and this book with a bee in it. the book that because we taught him a bee goes "bzzzz sting!" now that we try to get him to repeat letters, he says "a" and then gets stuck on "b" because instead of saying it he stings himself.
hayden can really bug the crap out of talan, but talan certainly knows how to push hayden's buttons as well. apparently the other day while in the basement talan was palming a ball with one hand (he has giant hands, remember) he would fake throw it right at hayden's face. and he kept doing this. acting like he was going to throw it. apparently this really got to hayden. i wish i could have seen it!
they actually can play together really well and it's so much fun to watch them together. first thing in the morning hayden always goes over to him and says "awwww, baby talan. hi baby!" while he rubs his head gently. they love to play chase together and hide and seek. they also love dancing and throwing themselves onto the couches together. and hayden can make talan laugh like nobody's business. everyday when hayden is coming home from school, talan runs to the door or window yelling hayden's name all excited.
talan loves to play with his shape sorter but doesn't have a lot of patience with it after the first round. he loves holding onto the football while in daddy's car and now the soccer ball while in mommy's car. he loves to "brush" his teeth. he loves coming downstairs to "play" but really it's just making a bigger mess. he loves to give people high fives and daps. in fact, while at old navy, he insisted that i take the cart close enough to every half bodied mannequin so that he could give their hands five. he says "cheese" when you take his picture. he loves to pretend talk on the phone, but if someone really is on the other end he won't say a word. he loves suckers....i hate them. he loves to jump. he loves getting up on our bed and trying to do all of the same jumps and flips that hayden does. he loves to take all of the pieces of a puzzle out but doesn't want anything to do with putting them away. he will now help put most of his other toys away when you tell him to. he loves trains. he loves balls. he loves working out with me and my workout tape by punching and kicking in the air. he loves to make a mess. he loves to throw things. he loves to play with my hairbrush while he's on my bed. he loves to turn hayden's leapster video game on and off and trys to act like he knows how to play it. he loves to type on computers. he loves putting his socks and shoes on but hates leaving his socks on once the shoes are off. he has recently really started loving tv...tivo in particular. and he loves standing and sticking his belly out.
talan continues to hate sitting still. he hates cold baby wipes. he hates having water dumped over his head in the bath tub. he hates sharing. he hates being told no.....especially by hayden. he hates waiting. he hates leaving somewhere when he's not ready to go and will stiffen up so you can't get him in his carseat. i've had to wait it out before in a target parking lot. he usually hates cooperating. he hates having to eat a normal meal while sitting.
while talan has become a much more difficult toddler than we ever would have thought he would, he is still a very sweet and happy baby. he has a great sense of humor and he seriously makes us laugh ever other minute. we had a rough day with him, but unfortunately he's getting a cold...hopefully that's all it is seeing as though i just got over strep throat. it's that time of year....outside right now our cars have a layer of snow on them....no joke.
talan continues to grow and change every day. which makes me both happy and sad. he constantly has us on our toes and there is usually never a dull or quiet moment in this house when he is awake. we can't wait to see what this next month brings us.
we love you so much, talan cash. happy 19 months!
i figure an explanation for the pictures just isn't even necessary anymore. you all know he hates to sit still...enough said.
yesterday i took talan to the dr. for his 18 month check-up. as soon as dr. newcombe walked in, she commented on how he had lost his baby look and looked all toddler now. i think i've had about 3 people say that to me in the last 2 weeks.
talan remembered the last time he was at the dr. with hayden and they were dancing around the room, so as soon as his clothes came off talan started spinning in circles and breakdancing on the floor. he must not have remembered too much else about the last visit because when dr. newcombe came in he didn't cry or get all clingy like he did the last time.
everything looks great with talan. which is possibly a first for him. i was SURE he was going to have another ear infection, but both ears looked great. she only heard a little bit of yuckiness in his chest which is simply due to the cough that returned because of a cold he recently had.
he only had to have 1 shot, which was his flu shot and he only cried for a few seconds. nothing too traumatic.
here are his stats:
he measured in at 33 inches which places him in the 70%. he weighed in at 24 pounds 13.2 oz which puts him in the 35%. and his head measured in at 19 inches which puts him in the 60%. big noggin.
had they measured his hands and feet i believe he would have been in the 160%.
at this point we don't need to go back in until talan is 2 years old. we are hoping to have the tubes put in his ears at the beginning of the year though, so we'll see how that goes.
on a totally different note, after trying to keep all things peanuts away from him until at least age two (i'm so paranoid about peanut allergies. it would be close to the end of the world if one of my children ever has one) i came upstairs yesterday to find him sitting on the couch eating one of hayden's peanut butter crackers. he also had a peanut shell in his mouth the other week. i'm sure we're safe....but i'm still holding out to make sure we keep it that way!
p.s. this picture was taken by justin cox. do you want good pictures? call him. he's good.
first i must state for the record that both of these pictures were, in fact, taken today, this talan's 18 month birthday. we had a wardrobe change, but fear not, i am as anal as ever.
so this morning i tell talan we need to take his picture with his bear. so he goes running into his room to get his bear, runs back out to the living room, climbs up on the couch, lays himself down and starts wiggling all around with a silly smile on his face. easiest laying down picture i've taken since before he was mobile. sitting up? that was a different story. hence the wardrobe change.
every time i sat him up, he's just scoot back down to a laying position and start wiggling around again. i'd sit him up, he'd growl at me and then lay back down. after awhile i just gave up and decided we'd have to try again later. i only got 2 shots sitting up but that would have to do. heaven forbid i try another day when it wasn't actually his 18 month birthday!
talan has started trying to talk quite a bit more within the past few weeks...mostly the past few days actually. dave pointed out a few weeks ago that he talks with his mouth closed. he just makes noises that come from his throat to form his words. so they all end up sounding the same. shoe, sock, flag, tweet tweet, it's all the same noise that doesn't come across well when typing.
he continues to say "baaa" for ball and balloon, however just yesterday i realized he could say "bubble" perfectly clear. hayden and i even heard him say "purple" but that only happened once.
he now says "dada" all the time and quite excitedly whenever dave walks in the door. and he always calls for hayden (haaaennnn) whenever hayden goes off to school.
yesterday he started trying to say "heehaw" but it is just "hee hee" with the first hee being higher and the second hee being lower...just like if you said hee haw. but if you ask him what a donkey says, he first starts to bark. doggie and donkey sound a lot alike.
several weeks ago i commented out loud that i hadn't heard talan's horrible cough in so long i couldn't even remember the last time i did hear it. maybe a week and a half later he came down with a cold and the cough is now back. just in time for his 18 month check-up on monday. well, at least it was gone for a couple of months. i figure it's back to stay for the winter.
talan went through a big eating spell for awhile where he would eat 4 chicken nugget dinosaurs at a sitting. now he barely eats 1. things he used to eat he will now put in his mouth, make an awful face and spit it back out. oh how i hope it's a phase and that i don't have another hayden on my hands!
one thing he does still seem to eat a lot of are hot dogs. he ate 2 of them yesterday for dinner before hayden even ate his one. he also really likes the little carrot shreds that you find in bags of salad. thank goodness they actually sell bags of "matchstick carrots" cuz it was getting hard picking out enough of them from the salad to keep him satisfied.
he still really likes capt'n crunch crunch berries, but will only eat the berries. and he loves lucky charms but really only eats the marshmallows.
talan used to be the world's easiest kid to put to bed. all i would say is, "ready to go nite-nite?" and he would grab his blanket and binky and run himself into his room. i'd lay him in his crib and we wouldn't hear a sound from him until the morning. he did this both at nap and nite time. then he came down with that stupid cold and ever since, he lays in bed crying for awhile before finally falling asleep. it's probably more annoying now because he is 18 months and not a newborn. and because he used to go down so easily. now just listening to him scream in there is like nails no a chalkboard. several times i have been taken back to when hayden had colic. then i remind myself talan's will only last 1/2 hour TOPS not 4-6 hours straight. only then am i able to stop shaking him and gently lay him back down.
he continues to be the world's messiest baby. he can tear your entire house apart in 12 minutes flat. his favorite place in the house is the basement of course because that's where the most stuff is. he has zero attention span which leads to his mess making. hayden at least played with things for more than 2 minutes. not talan. the only thing he plays with for long extended periods of time are his drum sticks.
talan continues to LOVE to dance. anytime any music comes on he starts dancing away, sitting or standing, it doesn't matter. most nites we have a dance session where we turn on some cd's and let the boys dance around the living room while we stayed entertained. and talan doesn't just dance fast all the time. if it's a slow song, he'll gently sway to the music. i've been trying to get good footage of him dancing to the ellen show to send in, but of course he never does it when the camera is rolling. she'd love it though. i say she'd even hire him to just be at every show and dance.
i have come to realize after all of these months, that talan hates wipes. and i think he hates them because they are cold. he doesn't care if it's winter or summer, he just doesn't like having his butt wiped with a cold wipe. hayden could have cared less which is why it never it me talan had a problem with it. i just figured he didn't like being changed...which many times he doesn't, but i think the majority of the time he just doesn't want a cold pack wiped across his naked butt.
talan continues to love his big brother hayden. they play hide and seek and chase. they spin around the room together. they dance together. throw balls to each other. push each other. and drive each other crazy.
just this morning, talan was sitting on my lap after he had gotten up. he climbed down, walked over to hayden and leaned on him....which meant he was hugging him. he climbed back up into my lap and then did the same thing 2 more times.
talan also has recently taken up an interest in exercise. i have started doing my workout tapes in the living room right after the bus picks hayden up in the morning. talan now waits for it to come on and then starts saying "kick kick" (it doesn't come out quite so clear but there was no other way to type it) as he starts lifting one of his legs. he also loves to "punch" and jump up and down when they are doing jumping jacks. the rest of the tape is lost on him, but he gets plenty of exercise doing other things....like running in circles around me, hitting my butt when i'm doing my lunges and running back and forth trying to have me miss him while doing kicks.
talan continues to be a very active little boy. he loves to run and jump and never sit still. he loves to play up on our bed. he can't talk a lot but he knows what he wants. he shakes his head "yes" and now also "no" to help us figure it out. he loves pushing cars around and saying "beep beep." he loves opening the cd player and taking all of the cd's out and then putting them all back in to one slot. he loves to turn the music all the way up when i'm outside at the bus stop. he has recently really started getting into watching tv and movies and his favorite show is yo gabba gabba. he loves running and pretending to fall...but usually does it rather hard...he still thinks it's funny. just today when i said "you be careful, you almost bumped your head" he then went back to the headboard and purposely banged his head into it. he loves climbing down the basement stairs by himself now and will often sneak down when i don't even know it. the other day he slowly brought up cans of food one by one. he loves trains. he loves the beginning of thomas. he loves having his shoes put on. he loves baths. he loves playing with my hairbrushes.
he hates wipes. he hates to sit still. he hates being told no. he hates sitting for meals. he recently started hating going to bed. he hates keeping his socks on when his shoes are off. he hates having his hair washed.
we are headed to the dr. for his 18 month check-up on monday so we'll report back later with his stats. he is now mostly wearing size 18-24 month clothes. he has ginormous feet and wears a size 6.5 wide or extra wide. we are using up the last of his size 3 diapers as he is ready to be in size 4. he goes to bed anywhere from 7-8pm and wakes up around 7am. he still takes his afternoon nap from 1-3 or 4.
i honestly can't believe talan has been around for a year and a half. time has flown by, but we are now at my favorite age. he seems to learn and try new things every day. i can't wait to see what each new day brings but i'll miss each yesterday as i know how fast the time goes.
happy year and a half birthday, baby talan! we love you so much!
