18 Months Old

I can't believe it has been a year and a half since we welcomed little Braylon into the world.  He has changed so much in the past six months!  He weighs 28 pounds (75th percentile) and is 35 and 3/4 inches long (95th percentile). 

He can say A LOT of new words: Mommy, Daddy, Nana, Papa, juice, cheese, milk, water, pretzel, fish, dog, bear, more, please, bird, outside, apple, star, ball, Elmo, Buzz, bee, all done, Suzy, tree, hi, bye, Amen, night-night, poo-poo, berries, baby, two, shoes, eyes, nose, toes, knee, puppy, silky, sun, sunshine, bubbles, shows, choo-choo, heart, boots, bo-bo, no, boat, Gage, Tate, Brady, me, mine, moon, turtle, hot, thank you, uh-oh, and part of "Have a good day." 

He can sign more, please, thank you, all done, milk, down, help, and water.  He can say the animal sounds for  horse, cow, dog, sheep, owl, chicken, duck, bird, monkey, and cat.  He can identify heart, star, circle, diamond, oval, triangle, and usually square and rectangle.

He loves books, music, Elmo, singing, dancing, balls, dogs, water, Toy Story 2, and RUNNING!  He runs everywhere it seems.  You definitely can't take your eye off him for too long.  Everyone says he is "all boy", and I totally agree.  He's aggressive, rambunctious, dirty(meaning he'll roll around in dirt and love it), energetic, and tough!  I can't wait to see how he changes in the next six months....but don't grow up too fast, Braylon. 

This was from last Wednesday night.  Braylon went to Suzy and Tommy's while Brad and I went to dinner and did a little browsing at Academy.

Braylon behaved so well at the doctor's office this morning.  He played with his little laptop and books until the doc came in.  Then was very cooperative and never fussed with the doctor.
