18 months is a whole new ball game…crazy fun…nonstop:Aston had his Well Checkup today and the following are his stats...
Weight: 24lbs 4oz (25-50th percentile)
Height: 33.5Inches (75-90th percentile)
Head size: not sure but in 75th percentile (I would have thought much larger!)
Vaccines: Only MMR (Held off on all others)
New Words:
Too many but here are some:
No more, upstairs, downstairs, down, up, boo boo, tattoo, elbow, please (pees), snow (know), Kate (Kot...Willette), Mia (Me), down dog, this
New Signs:
wheels, cry, ouch/hurt
Also has been very good at signing “please” or “thank you” and saying the name of the person he is asking something of or thanking in the process…which gets us every time.
New Sounds:
“The Kate Laugh” has become a big one over the last week. He has been watching Kate’s videos over and over on her blog and there is this one where she is playing on her new slide she got for Christmas and laughing like crazy…Aston now copies that laugh many times a day…it’s a very fake high pitched laugh…we love it!
New Favorite Foods:
FRENCH TOAST!, Hawaiian Rolls, clementines, ham slices (usually rolled or strips depending on his mood:)), steamed cake from Dim Sum, granola bars, cooked carrots from stews and soups, dips…loves to dip everything in something (usually Ketchup)
Rascal Traits:
-He has meltdowns in the most inopportune places… like the grocery store lines or restaurants…not so much at home.
-He is still a fairly finicky eater with a sweet tooth that has become quite the parenting conflict
-He still throws his cars when he is mad or frustrated
-Pulls off all the bumper stops on the cabinets and eats them
-Can open every drawer and cabinet in the house and seems to be more curious than ever…”Operation Complete Lockdown” needs to happen but we are so fighting the need
-Screams and tenses body when we tell him “no”
-Throws stuff in bath tub and turns the water on...usually daddy's clothes!
Other Notables this Month:
-Says “no, no, no” while wiggling his index finger when he knows he’s not supposed to do something…like throw golf balls in the pond or eat the red holly berries off the trees
-Somersaults from down dog…sometimes…usually is a sideways-salt
-Sings
-Wants to give kisses and hugs to everyone in the room
