19 Months Old


Boy ~ time flies! Our little guy is getting so big. His height is clearly in the 18 month range, but he is still thin. His ribs don’t stick out so much though, so we can see where the 3+lbs went!

His personality is really showing through. He is usually such a happy, smiley baby, but when he wants something, he lets you know! His language is coming along also. I still think that his comprehension is wonderful and he is beginning to say more and more. He is very influenced by his surroundings. While visiting my parents this summer, he said “doggy”, “puppy”, and “buddy” while with their dog. Seeing them in books didn’t get the same reaction though. We were talking to our neighbor this weekend and he became SO excited to see and pet her dog. He was saying “puppy” all day!

He is still pretty shy around strangers though. He can warm up to some, but it takes time. The bribe of a lollipop didn’t get the giver a smile yesterday. We were in the mall on Friday and he stayed by me, but 2 older women said how cute he was and he was smiling and flirting with them! Yesterday the appliance repairman was playing catch with him and he really was having fun! He even let his godmother pick him up.
