Explanations for pictures go left to right, top to bottom. Probably obvious, but I thought we'd clear up any confusion from the get go.
1. MAMA! Get me outta here!
2. Gotta grab a toy; cars are my fav right now.
3. Morning milk. mmmmm.
4. Poo Poo time. Sign potty so Mama knows.
5. Sign diaper change to let her know I'm done.
6. Grab a book and lay down so the deed can be done.
7. Right to work, checking my email.
8. Spy on that other boy in the mirror.
9. Back to business; phone calls.
1. Help Mama make breakfast.
2. Sign eat while munching on my favorite dish: cheesy hash browns.
3. Brush my teeth while balancing on a book. (I know, I'm so stinkin talented.)
4. Help clean up. (Sweet! Ma hasn't told me to get down yet!)
5. Work with my tools.
6. Drive around my cars.
7. Play with my containers and lids while Mama showers.
8. Take all the stuff from the counter and put it on the toilet (then back again) while Mama finishes getting ready.
9. Big hug for Clifford!
10. Wait, I don't want my other animals to be left out!
11. Read a book. (Sign help when I can't get it open.)
So there you have it. A typical Landon morning. This particular day we decided to go to the Provo Beach Resort and check out "Toddler Town." Good find for a place to go now that the weather is cooling down.
Later we went to Pumpkinland!! Last year Landon was too little to really enjoy it, but this time he had a blast! You can't really tell from these picts, but he is sooooo hard to photograph. Constantly moving, won't smile unless I'm making a complete idiot out of myself, etc... I'm just glad that out of the hundreds we took there were a few good ones!
He really enjoyed running around the cornmaze too. (And yes, I know I look retarded down there... I'm signing goat; which he signed back to me while saying ga ga.) I cannot tell you how much I love signing with him!!
Now, the bounce house at the end was another story. Thankfully there weren't any other kids in it, and I ending up going in with Landon. (One of the many perks to being the size of a 10 year old.) We jumped around. He laughed once. Then he wanted out. Fast.
Now, since I recorded what he could do at 15 months, I'm gonna jot down the new things he is able to do now...

Becca, you look great and have such a cute fam!
Little boys are so fun. Your post makes me mostalgic for my little ones now grown. Sigh.
Loved the pics at Pumpkinland. Darling photos, darling family and fun place!
Those pumpkin pictures are adorable! You do such a great job documenting Landon.
i love the color coordination going on up in herr! And I just love his flat messy hair. Not that his spikey hair isn't bomb too. He is just too skool for cool either way you slice it :)
