My nephew

My nephew is a heartbreaker (or, he will be!) and is about... .... (counting fingers...)... 16 months old.  He's a bright kid - always happy, loves the drums, learning sign language and is developing some speech - he can say "banananana" and "toast", and "aun suuuuuu"  and "unc t" (for uncle topher) and "i Luuu-ooo" and "touchdow" and "ayler" for kailer, my dog, uhm... oh he's good at "apple"  and I think his first word was "owl", he says it as two syllables "ah-wal"... as for signing, he can show us butterfly, an ineligible man down field (football), please, more, thank you, all done, holding (football), time out (football, again... looks a lot like sign for "Jesus" hahaha cuz he uses one finger into his palm)...  ok thats enough bragging about my nephew hahaha.  Oh one more.... "noodle-oodle-oodle".... hehehe.  I love his little person voice!  "What!?" was a funny one that he started, and he actually said "where ayler?" a few times to my mom.  A whole sentence!!!  OK, really thats enough.  OK, one more... whenever he sees a camera he says "cheese!" and scrunches his face up in a toothy but squinty grin.  He does it if you hold a cell phone up, too!  He doesn't get that not all cell phones are camera phones, though, which is the best part :)
