My baby is a toddler

Where has the time gone?!  Even though he'll always be my baby, Richie is now a toddler!  He is almost 14 months and he is a walking, talking, eating machine!  Richie started walking just after his 1st birthday....and he hasn't stopped since.  Once he learned how to walk, he immediately stopped crawling.  He walks all around the house and rarely sits still.  He completely exhausts his Mommy and Daddy!  He is also babbling a ton (while walking, haha) and I would just love to know what he is trying to tell us sometimes.  He is using some syllables with intent now ("ba" for "ball" and "pop" when he wants to use his popping walker toy).  His understanding of language is unbelieveable - he follows so many simple directions now and his vocabulary is growing and growing.  He continues to eat really well thank goodness.  He loves fruit and will eat that off of his plate before anything else.  Even though Richie tires me out, he makes our home so much fun and we wouldn't have it any other way!  Below are some recent pictures that I thought were too cute not to share.
