Sweet Gates, you are a year and a half old!
You are very independent and love to do things on your own. You have been walking for awhile now, but you are so strong and stable. You can run and go up and down stairs very well.
You can point to your nose, eyes, ears, teeth, hair, feet, belly button, hands and toes.
You are a little monkey and love to climb on anything!
You sleep from 7:30 or 8pm until 6:30 or 7am. Sometimes you sleep later, but lately you've been waking up early.
You wear 18 month, 24 month or 2T clothes (mostly hand-me-downs!) and a size 5 diaper. Size 5 or 6 shoe.
You are a slightly picky eater, but you are way more adventurous than Hawkins ever was. You will usually put something in your mouth to "try it" but won't always chew and swallow something new. I tend to give you the same stuff as Hawkins (grilled cheese, chicken fingers, etc) so I have to remind myself to give you different foods. Lately, you LOVE pineapple and orange juice.
Your typical day:
Breakfast: juice, waffle (If I am having a smoothie I make some for you - you love smoothies!)
Lunch: grilled cheese or peanut butter sandwich, raisins, apple, chips or crackers
Dinner: chicken tenders, raisins, apple
Words you are saying:
Mama
Dada
Bubba = Hawkins
Nu nu = Honey
Be Da = Big Daddy
Ninu = Aunt Nina
Beau
Yay yay = Lady
Belle = my parents dog
bye bye
me = please
dant tu = thank you
rock
Beebee = paci and/or blankie
I will ask "Who is ready for lunch?" or "Who wants to go outside and play" and you raise both hands and say "Meeeeee". It's the cutest thing EVER!
You love your brother so much. He is your "bubba". He will hit you and you still go and hug him.
You are obsessed with your blankie and paci. We try to keep them in the crib most of the time, but I just can't always deny you something you love so so much. It instantly calms you down when you are upset and you get so excited when you see it. Sweet boy.
Gates, we love seeing you learn new things and say new words everyday. You are so precious to us!
