The Pearce Family: 19 Months/HUGE MILESTONE!

This sweet face turned 19 months this past Wednesday. I have been pretty busy with school starting back and getting my room ready and all the new changes to planning that I havent had time to sit at the computer and post about this little ~~baby~~ boy. It's hard for me to say he really isnt a baby anymore. He is a toddler. In my eyes he still is! :)

A friend of mine gave Chance this train set for his 1st birthday and we havent opened it up til now. He really liked it!

Chance you are talking more and more. Putting statements/sentences together. One of the funniest things you do is when we ask you what a baby says you say "Momma" in this really funny voice. I have no idea where you got this but we tend to ask you it often just cause its so darn cute! We sing "The Wheels on the Bus" and I have never said that is what babies say. haha. You pretty much can tell us what all the animals say. You can make their sounds and I think you are so smart! You open and close your mouth for an alligator and put your lips together for a fish. SOOOO cute!

and for the BIGGEST MILESTONE EVER!!!! (I am totally knocking on wood to so I dont jinx this) But after what we called The Pearce Sleep Bootcamp this summer you are sleeping through the night!!! YIPPEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! Mommy and Daddy are sooooo proud of you Chance!!! But you know we are because we tell you every night and every morning how proud we are of you!!! *Now with school starting and his schedule changing we have had a couple of here and there nights where I have had to come reassure you we are just in the next room and you are a big boy. Mommy sometimes has to stay in there for about 20-30 min. sitting by your bed but I can take that!!! :) Mommy still rocks you every night and its her favorite part of the day. We read, rock and watch a lil TV and sing of course. LOVE IT!
You now when you want a nap or are ready for bed bring me your little catepillar (stuffed animal) and blanket and say "nite nite". You do this at Nana's house too. She thinks it is the sweetest thing.

"What do you want Mom" look

You love to drive. I blame your PoppA for this...you say all day every day "I drive, I drive" Poppa let you sit in his truck and pretend drive and now for the last 2 months that's all you want to do. So you have many toys that you can drive. Motorcycle, buggy car, crazy coupe car that you put real keys in to drive, tricycle with a little trailor - you name it you have it! :)

But now you want to drive your itty bitty firetruck. You try so hard to squeeze in the driver's seat.

Trying to get his foot inside. It was so sad but kinda funny. I had to grab my camera. He wasnt happy though and didnt understand that he was too big to drive this toy.
