19 Months Old

19 Month Old Facts:

• You climb on everything that you can get to, your slide, the couches, the window, our bed, chairs, literally everything.
• You are quite the little chatter box; from the time you wake up until the time you go to bed you're like your Momma, non-stop talk. I love it, you are picking up new words daily and I can't even count how many you have in your vocabulary now, we are quite impressed with you.
• I can finally feel confident in saying that you are 100% potty trained, way to go buddy, Momma and Daddy are SOOO proud of you, you've done great! Youe wake up from most of your naps dry and still sleep in a diaper, but all day you do great. You will either run straight to the bathroom if you have to go or you will tell us "potty" or "pee/poo" usually you use your verbal cues when we are somewhere you don't know as well as home.
• You have become even more affectionate than normal, you love giving us kisses and loves!
• You are completely obsessed with Disney Pixar's Cars; you have probably watched it almost a hundred times.
• You have been testing out volume and pitch with your voice, its SO funny, you do this lots when we lay you down for naps. You yell or squeal different words, sometimes I just sit and listen and laugh.
• You are more and more independent each day, holding our hand is a thing of the past, and if we need you to hold our hand (ie when walking in the road or parking lot) it's a small battle.
• You have started to say "set go" when you want us to say "ready set go" so you can push your cars and dumptruck from the living room to your room. You are super fast, you definitely got you Daddy's running speed, that did not come from me.
• You have started to "feed" or pretend feed things in books and your toys, it's so cute, you'll say "share" while you do it, so sweet.
• You are starting to learn your colors, you can point when asked what each color is, but when we ask you what color something is you say "greeee" (green) everything is green.
• You have had four ear infections since Thanksgiving, hopefully you are done with them.
• You are starting to be opinionated about your clothes and have started to take clothes out of your drawers that you want to wear, so i've started just giving you a choice between two outfits so you aren't wearing a pajama top with jeans and snowboots.
• You have discovered the fun of walking backward, and when you do it you say "baaaa" and grin, you think you're pretty funny.
• You become more of a joy every single day, you've got quite a personality and we LOVE you SO much Cooper!
