James is now officially 18 months! He continues to be a relatively happy and very fun kid. He is walking well, trying hard to jump (which already surpasses his brother:)), and can now climb onto the couch and chairs (as demonstrated in the picture above). He loves to play silly games, laugh and play with anything Noah is playing with, especially cars. His language has changed in the last few months. He now has conversations with you, and himself, which are mostly jibberish, but he has such a cute little voice and he is very animated when he talks. He still mainly uses signs to communicate, which has, once again, saved us from many frustrating moments. He finally started to say "mama", he also says "dada, uh-oh, hi/bye". He is a very good little brother and is learning to share, and to do so willingly, with Noah as well as showing some self restraint when he knows he shouldn't be doing something;) As you can see, he too has become a finger sucker... One day, just after Thanksgiving, he started and has been continuous with it since. He likes his right first finger only, then he rubs/pulls on his left ear...who knows why, but I do know that he is getting an impressive sucking blister on that finger... we are keeping our fingers crossed that it gets calloused up soon!
