18 Months---WOOO WHOOOO!

What the little peanut does and says now:

*Following directions (except to "no" he use to listen, now he just says it back)
*Throwing trash (especially dirty diapers) away in the trash can
*Cleaning up....by throwing everything in the trash....lovely...
*Still dancing like a little maniac
*Takes only one nap a day
*Wants to play outside 24 hours a day....what the heck do I do without a backyard?! I can only go to the park so many times a week!
* LOVES to play Wii...and when he plays you would believe he was really playing...I think Tennis is his favorite...he makes sound effects with his mouth as he swings it as hard as he can...it is hilarious.
*Loves to swing at the park. This is a huge thing bc before he could walk he hated the swing and just wanted to crawl around everywhere...making it a hassle for me....but now that he can walk...he prefers the swings...he'll usually do it for the first 20 minutes, and gets real mad if you take him out...haha gotta love it, I sure do!

*He broke 3 molars in about 2 weeks! So that makes a total of 9 teeth! I am just wondering what happened to his bottom teeth? He only has TWO! (and one molar) I can't wait for him to get all his teeth, because I think it will help him eat better.

*Lastly he says "tank-too" (thank you) and when I say 1 he says "two...THREE!" he says two really good and three is more like tree but he says it really loud and then waits to be tickled, its cute! And he is picking up to0 many other words to list, but those are the cute ones! And he looks you straight in the eyes and says "mommy (clear as day) aby laksi dkwick alksdick alksdi" and then waits for an answer, it is so funny because it is like he knows what he is saying or asking something and he says it real serious but it is just jibberish, so I usually reply with "ok" or "yes" and then he runs off. Who knows what I have agreed to?

Stats:

Height: 31" 5%
Weight: 20lbs 10oz 2% (percentages are of a full term baby, not preemie, so he is right where he should be)
Head: ? 6%
Sweetness: 4% Just kidding! I'd say more like 99% (he has his days! haha)


Well, Zach's first nursery experience was great from what I heard. The first week he could go to nursery was the Sunday that President Uchdorf was here for our stake, so we sent Zach a packing to his Grandma's! (Otherwise Tyler would have been in the hall with him the whole time because I was in the choir) So Tyler's mom took him to their ward. She said she just dropped him off and he ran in and played happily for the next 2 hours...with ZERO problems! I'm not going to lie, I wasn't surprised. I had to sub once and he was in baby heaven, he didn't even realize I was there. And drum roll please.......I took him last week and he ran in and was a good little boy the whole time. Well, correction...the whole time until I got their for the last 15 minutes to do music time (it's my calling), at which point he was exhausted and then I had to hold him the whole time. But that's ok, the teachers said he did really good, and of coarse I peeked (a lot) and he was happy every time!

These 2 pictures are a little sneak preview to Zach's 18 months pictures his Aunt Ashna took for us! Soo cute! He was in a bad mood, breaking molars, and getting a cold his daddy gave to him...but she still managed to get some good ones! Thanks Ashna!
