14 months

 sam at 14 months:
-loves anything with wheels, books, riding on his mickey mouse truck, playing peek-a-boo, and playing catch with dad (also officially learned how to catcha ball by himself). 
-has mastered his fake laugh.
-is a lefty! will only hold his sippy with his left hand and will only throw with his left hand. 
- loved bananas, crackers, avocados, anything chocolate, cheese, and carrots. 
- says mama, dad, hi, bye, hello, "uh-oh", catch, ball, shoes, socks, "1..2..3", car, truck, bath, toys, more, bottle, and tickle. 
- can make animal noises for puppy and cow. 
-has absolutely no sense of "stranger danger". this both makes me laugh and terrifies me. he is the most friendly little baby. he loves to go up to anyone and everyone to share his snacks, play peek a boo, or just to say hi. he is constantly making new friends!
-takes a 2-3 hour nap mid-afternoon and sleeps from 7:30 pm to 7:30 am. 
-loves to watch daniel tiger and mickey mouse clubhouse! he will crawl up on the couch with his bottle and watch a 20-30 minute episode. i truly can't believe that he is old enough to sit that long and be entertained. 
-loves bath time but HATES getting his hair washed. 
-hates wearing clothes. sam would be naked 24/7 if i let him. 
-is so SO cuddly when he wakes up in the morning and from naps. 
-loves reading time. he will go back into his room, find a book that he wants to read, and bring it to me and then plop down in my lap until i start to read to him. current favorites: "brown bear, brown bear", "i love you stinky face", and "i love you through and through". 
-loves to give kisses! he just learned how to blow a kiss as well. i seriously cannot get enough of his kisses! he also now loves to give his stuffed animals kisses. 
-dressed up as the cutest little hobo for halloween!
- wears 12-18 and 18-24 month clothing. 
-LOVES to push the cart at the grocery store himself! he also knows exactly where the toy aisle is at target. 
- loves to "sing" and we loooove to listen to him. his little voice going "lalalalalaaaaaa" is my absolute favorite. 
-is actually really good at cleaning up. he can make an absolute mess is 6 seconds flat but when it's time to clean up he loves putting his toys back where they belong. 
-weighs about 19 lbs. 

we love you, sammy!
