At 18 Months Noah is
-down to 1 nap a day, been hard for me to get used to but we are getting there
-is in a phase where he says "thanks" all the time. Everytime he gives me something it's usually thanks, and sometimes when you give him something he will say it too but it's usually more when he gives you something. It's backwards but it's a start.
-Loves Clifford, he loves his stuffed Clifford and also the TV show. Since he had loved his dog so much I wondered if he would like the show so I bought a DVD on ebay and when I first put it on, he couldn't believe Cliffy as we call him was on TV it was so cute. Now once it's on, since the episodes usually keep playing, it's a fight to turn it off.
-Still doesn't eat much, his diet consists of fruit, cheese, yogurt, peas, ravioli, pieroges, pasta, and chicken nuggets. Of course there is a lot of junk he likes, like fries, chips, fruit snacks, and popsicles but those don't count! I'm getting so tired of feeding him the same things, I can't imagine eating that stuff all the time but he just won't try hardly anything. I feel like he would like more if he would just try it. I have tried pb and jelly and grilled cheese many times to do something different but anything with bread or looks like bread he won't eat. Ever time we try something he doesn't want to eat, it's usually a screaming fit. Needless to say, I dislike mealtimes at this age, we struggle through them a lot of days.
-has been cutting a lot of teeth, he has had his front 4 and bottom 4 for awhile and just cut his 4 molars, and now is starting his insicors. Poor guy it always seems to hit him in waves like that. He has been doing pretty good with them though. On the extremely cranky days, I blame it on the teeth.
-still wears 18 month shirts and 12-18 month bottoms, little skinny butt has stayed put for awhile.
-has the cutest/funniest run, he flaps his hands in the air and he brings his feet way up. Now if he keeps doing it when he gets older, not so cute, he may get made fun of, but for now I love it
-walks on his tippy toes a lot all of a sudden
-loves, loves outside, he can open all the doors in our new house, so we have to keep a good eye on him, since he can open the garage and front door. Some days he tries to just go outside when he wants. It has been hard since it's been so hot, I haven't been able to stand playing out there with him. Looking forward to cooler weather and then I'm sure we will be outside all the time again.
-decided he just now likes Patty Cake, every time we get to the roll it part he just cracks up. Pretty much every day we sing, Elmo's song, Pat-a Cake and Itsy bitsy. He loves music!
-loves to play on mom, I'm ready to be able to do this more with him after baby, he loves to climb all over me and crawl around the floor together but it's just getting to hard for me right now.
-is obsessed with his toothbrush and toothpaste he goes in his bathroom many times throughout the door to get them out. He would suck on his toothbrush half the day if we let him.
-talks so much more but not necessarily words that exist or we understand.
Is still a character, it seems most days he is either happy and running around or throwing fits. He's lucky he's cute and that we love him so much because he can be so strong willed at times. We wouldn't trade him for the world though, no matter how ornery he can be! We will have the most frustrating 5 minutes with temper tantrums and then in the next 5 minutes he has us laughing at him. It is a rollercoaster every day!
