18 Month Check-Up

    Colt turned 18 months last week.  I must admit, I thought our life would be much different than this when he turned 18 months.  I also never thought this day would come.
Here are the stats:
Height: 34.5- 95%
Weight: 24.9 pounds- 32%
Head: 49 cm- 82%

 Here are some fun 18 month facts:

• Colt saw Justin spit the other day and now he LOVES trying to spit
• His hair is so curly, especially in the humidity
• He loves pretending to talk on the phone like daddy.  And he will use anything he can find and pretend it is a phone.  Yesterday I caught him with the calculator and he would talk and then turn it over to press the buttons
• He yells at Winston all the time (he calls him "dog")
• He loves to wash his hands
• Being outside is his favorite thing and he loves to say "outside"
• He really like bubbles!
• He is working on his jump shot
• He does hand motions for songs when we sing
• He is counting with us ( 3, 2, 1)
• He talks ALL the time.  You may not understand it, but he is always saying something
• His vocabulary has taken off since he quit sucking his thumb
• He is great at labeling things and generalizing.  He knows a fish is a fish whether it is a goldfish cracker, a fish in the water, or a drawing of a fish
• He gives GREAT hugs and kisses
• He likes to say "no"  ALOT while shaking his head
• He knows all of his body parts (he has for a while)
• He is working on animal sounds (he has moo, roar and oink)
• We are trying to enjoy these days.  He is very opinionated, and all boy, but he is so happy and loving.  We are just waiting for the rough teenage years to roll around.
