18 months


Colt just recently turned 18 months old. How the time passes...crazy. He has been so much fun lately, I realize I say this at every little milestone, but it's so true now:) Communication has been a struggle during his first year and a half of life, but it's really starting to come together now! Everytime he says something that makes sense, I get so excited and say "yes!, that is a ___!!" It's amazing what he learns at daycare, probably mostly from other children his age...because I don't think I'm teaching him anything.

He did great at his 18 month check-up. He actually let the doctor do his thing without any crying/whining/hesitations. He weighed 27 lbs 10 oz and was 32 1/2 inches long, which is somewhere between the 50th and 75th percentile. He has consistently stayed there.

His favorite words these days are "ride," "truck," "no," and "mommay." Everytime he sees any type of vehicle he says "truck" and never fails he says "ride." He LOVES to get in any car/truck/tractor/riding toy and play in it forever and will say "ride" over and over, which actually sounds like "wide." Also LOVES the word "no," says it to me, Josh, my sister, the dogs. He also says it to himself in the mirror while he's making faces (sticking out his lips) at himself. And of course loves to call me...it's music to my ears. It sounds a little french when he says it..."mommay." It melts me and hasn't gotten old (yet).

He still is the sweetest thing ever, loves to love on me and sometime Josh:) We couldn't have asked for anything better than him!
