18 Months

I can't believe my little boy is 18 months old. He has an amazing vocabulary and can recognise and name circles, hearts and stars. He also gets some more abstract ideas like 'funny', 'naughty' and 'all gone'. We went to the zoo last week and he keeps on about the meerkat and top. The meerkat was on top of a pole and Lil Taf thought it was very funny. All his peers are still at the 'mummy' and 'daddy' stage. Every day is such an adventure.
Talking of which, we had to have a quick redesign of the house. I caught the little monster in the window sill with the blind cord around his neck. The cords are now out of reach and the table he used to climb into the sill has been relocated. He also grabbed a carving knife from the kitchen bench. To top it all off, Daddy caught him about to take a swig from the fabric conditioner. So we have child-proofed again. We should be fine until he can reach the door handles...
