Cason, you are 16 months old! What have you been up to this month?
*You wear 18 month - 2T clothes but most of your 18 months clothes are starting to fit a little too snug.
*Your wear size 5 diapers and size 6 extra wide shoes.
*You weigh a little over 30 pounds.
*You take 2 naps and day and sleep 12 hours at night.
*You are still eating A LOT. However, you are going through a picky stage at the moment--hopefully it will pass soon. One day you will love mac and cheese and the next you won't touch it. The things that you will always eat (no matter what mood you are in) are ANY type of cracker, cheese, any fruit, waffles, deli meat, peas, eggs, yogurt, and applesauce.
*You cut your 2 upper molars the week of August 23rd and your 4th bottom tooth on August 31st.
*Your words of the month are dada (this is your favorite word right now), mama, bye-bye, night-night, ball, door, go, nana (for banana), and uh oh. You can almost say thank you, water, and cat (your word for cat is dat).
*You use sign language a lot of the time. You consistently use sign language for more, all done, eat, and please. To you, please means "I want" because you sign this and point at whatever it is that you want and get very upset if we don't give it to you. You will sign the word milk occasionally but not consistently---even though this was the very first word I tried to teach you. You are pretty good at signing thank you---it still looks very similar to blowing a kiss though.
*You can point to your head, hair, nose, eyes, mouth, tongue, teeth, ears, knees, belly button, and toes :)
*You finally learned how to shake your head yes instead of always shaking your head no.
*You started Mother's Day Out on August 26th. You go every Thursday. You get very upset when I drop you off but your teacher says that you do great throughout the day. You will not take a nap on your nap mat at MDO, so you and 2 friends ride around in buggies during nap time.
*Your hitting tantrums have decreased greatly--thank goodness. You still have tantrums, just without the hitting, or at least not very often.
*You love giving hugs and kisses to us, your friends, to strangers at My Gym, and to your stuffed animals.
*You are always on the go and you can run very quickly now.
*You can open several of the doors around the house now all on your own.
*You LOVE to jump right now. You will use the trampoline at My Gym and your little horse, Rody, at home. Sometimes you get so excited while jumping, you fall right off!
*You also like to play hide and seek. When we go into your room, you immediately run and hide behind the glider. You peer out from the side and laugh while you wait for me to find you.
Mad Cason
