18 Months

Logan was 18 months last Thursday. Bob and Judy were in town and (surprise, surprise) Bob brought his camera!

Logan got lucky at his check-up because we were just a few days early for his second round of Hep A vaccine, so he didn't get any shots. Except for the flu shot, we're done until he gets Hep A at 2 years and then more vaccines at 4 years. Thank heavens that's mostly done!

Logan is 26 pounds (52%) and 32 inches (49%). He is so verbal that I can't keep up anymore. He can and will repeat anything you throw at him up to two words - like "applesauce" and "big truck". Some of his favorite words are bulldozer, Asher (a neighbor friend), and Abby (from Sesame Street). He is saying please now, though he still signs it at the same time. He is getting pretty skilled with the fork and spoon and finished an entire cup of applesauce tonight by himself with very little mess. He is also drinking from an open cup when we're home at night.

On Monday, Logan will move to the toddler room at school. He has outgrown the infant room for certain, but probably still enjoyed being the "leader of the pack" for the last few months. His transition has gone pretty well. He spends several hours a day in his new room and does okay until naptime when he needs a familiar face to come pat him to sleep. I get pretty emotional when I think about it too much. I know that this is just the first of many big transitions and that he will be just fine. He has been extra clingy to me the last few weeks, but I'm not complaining!



We love you little guy!
