14 Months

I am getting behind on my monthly posts! I forgot to take an elephant picture last month so I have to get one for this month! I tried last night and failed so i will try again! 14 months is here. I feel like this month just kinda went by and I am not really sure what went on! But let me see if I can try and remember what all happened this month. The beginning of the month was a little rough bc he had a chest cold. I have asthma so i am very aware of wheezing so when he started wheezing we headed to get a breathing machine. It helped so much and we have it if he ever gets sick again. He is starting to really know what he wants and doesn't want now. I am not sure if it is a good or a bad thing bc it makes for some battles. He has certainly developed some whiney tendencies when he does not get what he wants. He is a happy child most of the time so when he is whiney it has not been easy as this is not his normal personality.
Eating is still a major issue for us. He is just so picky and I am sick of baby food! I refuse to buy any more after we run out this time. But he really does not eat much at all. I try different things but I cannot get him to eat it or most of the time even put it in his mouth. He will still only eat applesauce, yogurt, mandrin oranges, pear and apple cubes, and spaghetti. At school they offer him the lunch and on his sheet sometimes it will say he ate chicken or mashed potatoes or peas but I cannot get him to eat anything. He loves the pizza at school but he will not eat it if I make it. Thankfully he still loves his milk and drinks a ton! Lately he has also been on a hummus kick which i am good with!
I shouldn't complain about our lack of eating bc he is still a big boy and I think weighs around 25 lbs. He still has a round belly and cheeks so he is not starving. He wears 18 month clothes but some are getting a little small so between 18-24 probably. He wears a size 5 shoe and loves his red keds the best!
He is very into books again and wants to sit in your lap so you can read but is done after one page. I still love it bc he is actually wanting to sit with you! He also loves pictures. He goes to the tables in our house and "talks" to the picture frames and carries them around. He talks a lot but I can rarely tell what he is talking about. I think the word he can say best is hello and he does that walking around with a phone to his ear. He also says Elmo when he sees the Elmo book. All other words no matter what they are start with the "g" sound.
We have had a lot of trouble with sleep this month too. This mommy is worn out. I have tried everything I know to do when he wakes up in the middle of the night but nothing is working. I am praying this stage is quickly exiting! 
Thats about all I can think of for now for this month!

We had to get Elmo pjs since its one word he can say. He just smiles when he sees them
