Jude at 16 Months

I've been slack about posting Jude's growing accomplishments. December was so busy so January was supposed to be a little slower. It flew by! We went crazy and renewed our Disney passes, had family visit and got back into the swing of school and the externship that David started.

Jude does something new every single day. He says a new word, climbs on the table, bonks his head...it's pretty consistent. He now says mama, mommy, dada, daddy, woof, meow, baba,  and hi pretty consistently. He signs please and thank you and I love you. He loves giving kisses and cuddling. He can hear a plane in the sky at any time and start looking for it, then waves bye-bye to it. He understands everything we say to him and sometimes can even bargain with him (when it comes to taking medicine or convincing him to do something else important).  He really likes Cars and Mickey and throwing balls. Oh, and he loves the show Phineas and Ferb.
The kid is addicted to his pacifier. It's going to be a sad day when we take it away. But it is nice how it can comfort him.
He recently got sick and has been for a few weeks. He had an ear infection that was draining out of his eye, so we thought it was pink eye, but I guess it wasn't. Then he got a cold with a super bad cough and his body broke out in hives or something. We took him to the doctor and she said his has some kind of virus that his body is either reacting to or he could be allergic to the amoxicillin he was taking for his ear infection. Poor kid. He has not been himself for over a week now.
Luckily he is still fun and happy and sweet.
As for food, he is definitely getting more and more picky. Some days he loves sweet potatoes and the next day he won't try them. He still loves dipping in ketchup or mustard. He had his first hot dog and fell in love. The kid loves meat. Meat and sugar.
