Easton is now 22 months.  Soon this will read he is two.  However for now he is my baby and I write in months.  Or I say, he is only one.
That being said... He is growing in so many ways.  He can say and recognize most of the alphabet.  I can't seem to test him on all the letters to be sure but I think there are only about 5 that he has trouble with.
While I do read to him, and so does Brian and Hadley, I am sure this has a lot to do with starfall.com.
He definitely recognizes the  colour red as Hadley is going through a red cup phase and he knows that it is for her.
Easton loves to sing itsy bitsy spider and asks for you to sing along by putting his little fingers together.  He also loves rollie pollie and sticky sticky bubble gum.
He is not loving blueberries like he did before.  He still likes them but not as much as before.  This is funny since they are actually in season right now.
Hadley and Easton play together quite a bit now which is awesome.
Easton is now approximately as tall as Hadley's shoulders.
He loves baby Emily as much as Hadley does.  This is a doll that Hadley s gifted when she was one... I think.
He is a comedian.  He LOVES to make people laugh.  Yesterday he waddled around like a duck just because he found out that it made us laugh so much.
He loves to shout our names.  Mommy, daddy, aga, and dee dee.
We celebrated him turning 22 months kind of by accident (because it was the long weekend), by going to center island in Toronto.  Both kids loved it.  Centreville is designed almost perfectly for kids 1-6 years old.  We enjoyed the rides, candy, park and beach time.

Easton loves to give zerbers (raspberries), whatever you call them.  If he is tired he looks for skin and attacks.  He laughs, we laugh.  He puts his little lips down and blows letting saliva go all over making loud funny sounds.
Also, Easton is now in size 6 diapers.
Just two notes I forgot about.

Square, triangle, rhombus (diamond), cone, cylinder and circle are easy for him to match up with similar shapes.
