James William 21 months (stats at 18 months)

Oh, James! You are at such a fun age right now! Learning more and more things every day and starting to communicate more.

Size 2 ft 8.5 in, 44 percentile; 27 lb, 4 oz, 84 percentile

James CAN...
talk more and more: says "grandpa" (ba-pa) (his favorite), ball, doggy, kitty (ki-he)

throw (you have quite an arm!) You are particularly good at throwing things into the pool! :(

ride your little bike or scooter

Feeding:
Still loves to eat! Favorites are pasta of any kind, cheese (that's your MidWestern blood coming through), fruit, and sweets (love Sunday after church cookies). Still drinking the whole milk for a few more months.

Sleeping:
James sleeps from 7:15(ish)-7:30(ish) altho the morning wake up varies. One nap around 1:30-3:30.

Loves:
Still loving your hot wheels.

Playing pillow fight with our family.

Pushing the play grocery cart around (loaded up with cars, of course).

Being outside (you have a bad habit of heading to the doggie door if the sliding door is locked).

Not a Fan of:
Time outs. We've started short time outs for throwing things or going out the doggie door.

Mommy trying to cook. You usually get a snack because otherwise you just hang on my legs and whine.

Staying out of sister's stuff. And sharing with brother. These are the two times you usually will tantrum.

Wearing:
Clothes: just switched to 24 months for shirts, still in 18 months pants
Diapers: size 4 Luvs, size 5 at nights

Random Happenings:
We are enjoying Winter Break right now. Lots of family time! Gingerbread houses, Train Park, Zoolights, and heading up to the Snow Park this Friday.
