18 Month Stats

We visited Dr. Denison the night before we took off for Iowa for JD's 18 month checkup. Overall he's doing fine - we're going to continue the breathing treatments once a day -and he is having surgery to fix his umbilical hernia in September.

Weight: 27lbs 6 oz
Length: 33 inches
Head: Still Huge (20 inches)

Justin is still being pretty stingy with his words. He'll say one here and there and then not say it again for weeks. He has uttered Truck , Tractor, Grandma, Grampa, Jeff (yes all you aunts and uncles- be jealous- he uttered Jeff first), Duck and he regularly says "uh-oh." I've noticed just this week he has started saying more - so I'm sure he'll be babbling non-stop soon.

He transferred to a new room at daycare this week too - so drop off has been not-so-fun. His teacher says he's fine 5 minutes after I leave though. She has commented to me each day that he has a good appetite. For those of you who have seen the kid eat- I swear he is currently eating twice what he normally does - and you know that is a LOT.

Rocks are fun...
