Max is 18 months!

Our sweet little Max turned 18 months the day after Christmas! Can you believe he is already 18 MONTHS! I can't! Time is truly FLYING!

It is always hard getting pictures of him in his chair so I just got these this past Monday! LOL!

The only way I got him to STAY in the chair was to get him reading!

Good thing he LOVES to read!

What a SWEET lil smile! Don't you just want to kiss him!

Okay so we went to doc last Wed for our 18 month check up! Max was weighing in at 25lbs 12oz which put him right under the 50 percentile. He is measuring 34inches! WHAT!!!! My sweet lil boy is almost 3ft tall! He is in the 90th percentile for height. I mean seriously my son is over half of my height already! LOL! Everything else looks great! He is hitting all his milestones for 18 months and more!

He is wearing 12-18 month in some things and now 18-24 month in some things. He is still in 6 1/2-7 size shoe. He is still in size 4 diapers.

He is really a smart little boy! He is trying to say anything you say! I can't even list all the words he is saying these days. My favorites are "ahh meee" for awww man, "nack" for snack, "wa wa" for water, "awpun" for open

He is in the typical toddler food stage....he may eat something one day that he will not eat the next. It is crazy trying to figure him out. Most of our bad temper tantrums are over what we are eating at lunch or dinner. He is a GREAT breakfast eater. Things he will eat no matter what: fruit especially grapes and blueberries, spaghetti, and chicken tenders (depends on brand). Of course he will also eat junk food too LOL!

He is still OBSESSED with ELMO!

He stills gets into EVERYTHING and VERY BUSY! But at least now he is understanding NO.

He will follow simple commands like go get your shoes, go get your cup, lets clean up....

His favorite toys: balls, phones, keys, puzzles, climber toy he got for Christmas, shape sorter, little people farm, and of course all his ELMO toys.

He is still OBSESSED with BOOKS! The boy LOVES to read and be read to! I just love that about him!

He likes to count things. The funny thing is he never starts with one....he starts everything with two...lol!

He can name pretty much all the main body parts.

He can name and say the sounds to most farm animals and a few other animals too!

He knows the letters A and I. Except the funny thing is he thinks the letter I is the same as your eye! Too funny!

Max is such a blessing and so much FUN to be around! His little personality is definitely shinning through these days. He is ALOT like his mama "drama king"! LOL! We have our ups and downs like any day with a toddler but in the end it is ALL worth it! I just never knew I could LOVE him as much as I do! God is so good!
