His measurements are identical to mine when i was 19 months! 34in tall and 29lbs. He's in the 90% for height and 75% for weight. The doctor was impressed with pretty much everything, especially his vocabulary and temperment (toot toot) and said that he was developmentally at a 2 year old level.
Jack is putting 2 and 3 words together to make mini sentences (yesterday was "Binkie's being silly"). He can count to 10ish, say some of the alphabet and can identify some colors and shapes.
Jack has a new pet, Melgar the turtle. He LOVES him! (no he doesn't touch him and Josh and I wash our hands when we do).
His new favorite song is Be Bop a Lula by Gene Vincent. He sings along and will sing the 'baby' part when i point to him.
He goes to bed or for a nap without any residence at all. We can put him right down in his bed without any problems... if we (I) wanted to, but i really enjoy the bedtime cuddles.
He LOVES LOVES LOVES garlic humus and likes raw onions.
He hasn't had a hair cut yet and i don't know when he will. I'm loving his lovely locks. His eyes are hazel. In the sun he has a mustache. He still has his ear tab.
He loves being naked. Whenever he has clothes on he tugs at them and says 'off' until i take them off. When he just has a diaper off he tugs at that too saying 'diaper off'. I can usually get away with him running around naked for about 1/2 hour without any accidents.
He recognizes happy and sad faces. He can make many animal sounds, including owl, eagle and grackle (he loves birds).
I've started seriously toddler proofing the house because he's getting into everything!! He's also starting to get an attitude when he's not impressed with something. I'm not looking to the terrible twos.
The doctor said that he's such a loving, smart and happy boy because his parents and other care takers are so patient and loving with him. "He's a very lucky little boy and I give you all an A++!"
