18-Month Stats

We had Charlie's official 18-month check up this week and he is still consistently tall (x inches, 90th percentile) and skinny (x lb, 25th percentile).  We are lucky too that he is progressing very well in every way.  His speech was a little slow at first but he now is saying probably 20 things consistently and it seems like everyday he adds a word or two. Things starting with B's and D's are his favorites but there are a few others in the mix including hello, football, truck, kitty, and mama from time to time (not nearly as consistently as doggie, football or basketball).

Here some other pictures of what he is up to these days...

Loves trying on "big" shoes

Eats really well with a spoon...

And loves it! (seriously, he insists on eating this way sometimes)

That hair is still growing... and I still refuse to cut it :)

Loves pulling out and putting his books back on the shelf

Loves to clean the floor with a paper towel whether it needs it or not (this is not hereditary)

Goes "vroom" on his little car

Puts anything up to his ear and says "hello"

Loves Dad playing the trumpet

Loves his bedtime friends... he picked these out of the laundry and insisted on carrying all four around

BASKETBALL!!!!!

Favorite thing on earth

Wearing bigger boy clothes... moved up to 18-24 month duds and a new shoe size too (5)

Loves his "oot-ball" (actual a rugby ball) and "bask-ball" (every round ball is a basketball in Charlie's world)
