The flip side to his cute little personality showing is that he is also at the age when he gets frustrated really easily and throws tantrums, bites, hits... That is not so much fun! The video footage below was the end result after I decided to show Evan what it looked like when he threw a tantrum (I got on the floor and kicked my legs). He thought it was hilarious and now I mimic him when he starts to throw a tantrum and it usually can get him to stop.

The Joys of Having a Toddler
Evan's personality is really starting to develop. It is so fun to watch. It seemed to coincide with him learning to walk, he has become much more verbal and assertive about what he wants and doesn't want. He says several new words everyday and does everything with gusto (he grunts as he tries to open things/push things/throw things). What has surprised me too is how boyish he is, he loves to get in the dirt, to throw balls and play with cars and trucks. His latest trick is pulling a hat down over his eyes and walking around the room until he bumps into things...you would not believe how much this entertains him!
