Landon is 16-months-old today. I can sing, "You are my sunshine..." to him, meaning it with all of my heart. Just when I'm in a pissy mood, he's in front of me making me smile a second afterward. It keeps me focused in the most important ways.

Landon's vocabulary is growing at a rapid speed. Tree, chair, stay, light, etc., etc. He amazes us all. He's growing just as fast, too. I find myself moving things farther and farther out of his reach. It seems like I'm doing this every day, as if he ate a growing pill or something. We have to be careful of what we say or do because he is a sponge.

My only complaint with Landon right now is that he's making me sleep deprived. He's been waking up constantly throughout the night, and this morning I had to throw the towel in. Darren ended up walking out of the room with him some time before 7 in the morning and let me sleep. I was just about to jump into a heated pool when Darren came up to wake me. ;) And naps. Oh boy. My mother-in-law had him sleep on her for about twenty minutes, and then much later on in the day he slept on me for 30. He's all out of sorts. I need to straighten this out somehow.

My mother-in-law said I could do whatever I wanted to this house when they were gone. I kind of had this mischievous laugh come on when I said, "That's not a good idea, you telling me that." All of the sudden I am swamped with ideas. They better be ready for a different furniture arrangement. I also plan on moving all of her exercise equipment into the computer room. Where it stands right now is not fitting at all. I COULD DO SO MUCH IT'S CRAZY! SO MUCH!
