Julian is a ton of fun! He's always on the move, and we are having a ball!
Julian didn't want what we had for dinner, so he had a cup of peanut butter instead!

BEST.KID.EVER!
Early this morning (the morning after graduation when we are exhausted), we hear Julian saying, "Down. Down. Down." That's his sign that he's ready to get out of the bed or at least have someone in the room talking to him. So, Vince got up, opened the door, and said, "It's still sleepytime, buddy. Can you lay back down?"
And HE DID!!!
BEST.KID.EVER!

18 Months Ago
Can you believe that this little guy...
Is now THIS guy?!
I love toddlerhood. Julian has such a great personality and every day he becomes a little more "him." He totally gets attitude, but he is also sweet and cuddly. Everyone always gets a wave goodbye or even a blown kiss. Some, like Yoda, get kisses.
He's totally observant and wants to make sure we hear every "zoom" (car, airplane, truck, pretty much any form of transportation), see every bird (or squirrel, dog, cat, anything with legs really), and he picks up every stick (or rock, flower, ball, dog poop - sad but true).
We are so glad to have had these 18 months with Julian. We know it just gets more and more fun as we go forward!

Happy Mother's Day
The day I became a mother was a wonderful day...hard, but lovely!
And it honestly gets better and better. I love being a mother to this precious little child. I couldn't imagine it any other way.
Today was a great day. I got cards from my guys with a gift certificate for a massage! Wahoo! Then we headed to breakfast at M. Henrietta's. I had a fried egg sandwich, which was actually much fancier than it sounds: toasted sourdough bread with gorgonzola cheese, tomatoes, bacon, two eggs over medium, topped with micro greens. YUM! Then off to the farmer's market.
After that the day was pretty much as usual: grocery shopping, cleaning the kitchen, a hot bath (unusual), and a little vegging. I may get the hem into the skirt I made months ago, so that I can wear it this week.
I love my family, and I'm excited to have many more Mother's Days to celebrate with them.

Shoes
Julian loves shoes! I think it was his first word. Today, he decided to wear my shoes. The best part of this video is his facial expressions to himself in the mirror.

Not much is happening
Julian turns 18 months old on Monday, so we will have some updated Yoda pics to share. But otherwise, not much is going on here. Julian shocked us the other day with some of his new words. Zipper is a favorite these days. He also loves to make all the animal sounds. One day I will catch it on video.
I promised a picture of Jules with Yoda and Moses, so here you go. Our friend Jonathan was in town from Boston, and he was staying with us.
We also bought a used bike trailer for Julian to ride in, and we went and got him his first helmet. It still needs a bit of adjustment, but he MUST wear at hat or helmet whenever one his people are wearing one.
