I still can't believe Jaydon is one and a half already. Time just keeps flying by. He is a healthy 18 month old weighing in at 26.75lbs and he is 33.25in tall. All his measurements put him in the 55th-70th percentile. He is very active and his coordination and strength are sometimes pretty amazing to watch. He is signing a lot but still not talking much, the words he does use are "mama", "da" and "duck." He loves animals and many of his signs are for animals he also likes to make animal noises (panting for a dog, snort for a pig, lip flop for a horse). We aren't worried about the talking since he is clearly communicating with us very well and signing with sentences so we figure it won't be long before he bursts forth with speaking too. (For now I might just try enjoying some of the quiet and baby babble in preparation for the never ending questioning that I know is coming my way).
Blurry photo but there are times I look at him and just think what a little man he is already versus my little baby.
Not so easy to share a bed when he decides to sleep this way! Every once in awhile we will bring him in to our bed in the morning to snuggle and he has successfully kicked us both out at one time or another.
He rides on his fire truck and pushes himself around, looking both ways before pulling out onto the main road??
Sometimes I wish our closets were not easily opened by Jaydon but most of the time it isn't too bad. Here he decided the shoes didn't need to be on the shelf - he did.
He is a loving little boy who gives good snuggles and at this point in time shares very well, we hope that continues. Here he is wanting to read stories and wrestle and snuggle with daddy all at the same time.
People tell me that it seems like a blink of an eye and their kids are driving. Here Jaydon got to try out the driver seat. He enjoyed the hand break the most.
But the steering wheel and gear shifter provided some entertainment as well.
Happy 18 months big guy! We love you!
