Jacob is 16 Months Old!

16 months old! Really? I can't believe how fast it goes.
Jacob is quite the handful! Of course I would not change a second of it.

Jacob is running and climbing on everything. Unfortunately he has not learned the concept of heights and has no fear of the edge. This has led to a few bumps on the noggin.
Says Mama, Dada, Pup Pup (for puppy), Wa wa (for waffle), NO!, ish (for fish - specifically the Legoland Aquarium pictured above), Bob, up, and bye bye, do (for juice) and ja (for his best friend Jack). The other day I said "I don't know" and he repeated it as clear as day. Really! He did it one more time, but has not done it since - of course.
30 1/2 inches and 23 lbs
He loves to help around the house by throwing his own diaper away, putting his bottles in the sink, wiping his highchair tray and bringing you just about whatever you ask for.
If he finds an article of clothing in his room that he likes, he will bring it to you and lay down so that you will change him. Great - picky about what he wears already.
He is getting picky about what he eats - if any moms have any suggestions, I would love to hear them!

No suggestions about the food just that my dr told me that at around 18 months they slow down eating and to just offer them fruits and veggies all day. Addie ate a ton and I mean a ton and at 18 months it was like she flipped a switch and stopped eating.
