Happy 18 months!

18 months...already?

My baby boy is 18 months. When did this happen? Six more months and he will be TWO!! I keep thinking "that can't be right," but it is.

Miles is a big bundle of joy these days. Of course, he has always brought me joy, but lately it is very overwhelming. He gives kisses on demand and points to his eye when I tell him " I love you." I assume it means he loves me too since I have been teaching him to point to his eye, his heart, and me when I say it.

He is also really expanding his vocabulary. I have no idea how many words he says, but his newest words are: lawnmower, robot, monster truck (daddy taught him), pool, go!go!, and daddy (not dada anymore).

He can point to almost all the animals in his book when asked where it is and loves to show off his animal sounds.

He knows where his head, ears, eyes, nose, ears, and peeps (penis) is. He also loves to clap his hands and stomp his feet when I sing "if you're happy and you know it."

He is still a picky eater, so the majority of the time he is eating either PBJ, corn dogs, chicken nuggets, or vienna sausages. I know...it's bad, but it is what it is. He also LOVES fruit and cookies...but will NOT eat a bite of veggies...that is what multi-vitamins are for. : )

At his 18 month check up he was in the 50% for weight (26lbs) and height (33inches), but of course his head is still the 95%. Lots and lots of brains.

He will probably be starting daycare with in the next few weeks and while I am sad to not be spending as much time with him, I am really looking forward watching his little mind get to work on learning lots of new stuff.
