October 20th: Hartz and I headed up to Pensacola for our planned weekend with Nana and Hogpaw. We drove starting in the evening and it ended up being a really great drive (6+ hours) due to the Hartz- man snoozing most of the way. Chris was in Kansas for work, so he ended up flying in Saturday morning and meeting us there. We had a super great time attending gallery night, a fall festival, and having dinner with Uncle Keith and cousin Sarah to end the weekend.

While we were in Pensacola, Hartz turned the big 16 months. 16 Month Update:
New Words/Sounds/Signs:
MAMA has made an appearance!
Trash- sounds more like "trah"
Vroom with hand motion up for plane.. we hear planes ALL the time, so he gets lots of practice
The sign please has happened a couple times
Other Highlights:
FRONT MOLARS are in the house. He has 3 all the way through and the 4th is trying hard to break out. We have been doing motrin some and it really hasn't been too painful (for us or him). His 3rd front tooth is in as well. The total count is 10 teeth at 16 months!
He has attained elite status on Southwest Airlines... he is allowed in the cockpit. jk.
The last couple times at church, there has been no crying when daddy drops him off.
He is able to follow some commands (putting things in trash, items back where they belong.. working on mowing the yard next :) )
He can spin.. he falls down quite often trying, but he tries hard. Guess hokie pokie should be taught soon.
That is all Chris and I can think of that is new.. we love our boy!
