18 Months
Wow. I'm really bad about writing in this blog. I think about doing it but I'm too lazy I guess. Anyway, there has been a lot of developments with my son. In my last post I was talking about how I loved the new room he was in at daycare. He really enjoyed that room and learned so much. He knows all of his body parts and says a lot of new words. He also follows directions so well now its amazing to me. I'm not even sure how many teeth he has, 16 I think. All of the other parents seem to think that is a lot. He eats pretty well (except veggies but we are working on it). My only real complaint right now is that he hates to have his diaper changed. I try distracting him but he just hates it. The only time he'll really be cooperative is if he pooped. I guess he wants to help the environment by not changing diapers that are just wet = )
Next week he moves to the next room at daycare for 18 month to 2 year. In that room they have a computer. He will love that since he is always trying to play with ours. They teach him how to use utensils in this room also. Right now he can pick up food with a fork but takes its off the fork with his other hand to put in his mouth. I hear this is a good room to so I hope he continues to learn at such a fast pace.
As far as the ear tubes, they were the best thing we could have done. He hasn't had ANY ear trouble since. We have a checkup next week to see if they are still in place. I'm so glad we had them done. At first I was scared but it really was for the best and not a big deal at all.
Today we had a Halloween party (my son was a polar bear) at our house with a total of 5 kids and their parents. In a two bedroom NYC apartment we may have been pushing it a little but everyone seemed to have fun. The kids weren't sharing very well though. Everyone kept fighting over the same toys. I imagine that for my son it was difficult to have so many people here playing with all his toys. Usually we just have one other kid over for a play date, not four others. It will be easier to have parties once everyone is a little older and can do structured activities. As it was it was slightly controlled chaos.
Well I need to go. As I type he is whining to play on the computer so I should just stop this entry. Until later....
