So for stats, he is 31+inches (70th percentile), 23 lbs (30th percentile). I figured he would be a pound or two light because he barely ate anything the previous 4 days, plus he doesn't sit still for much, he likes to go..go..go..go...until Mommy is exhausted!
The doctor really didn't believe me when I told her that Josh had a 70 word vocabulary. She said she is happy with 1 - 5 words at this age. I told her that when he wakes up in the morning, he starts naming things he can see in his room: bed, cycle, diaper, books. He picks up new words very quickly. Thank heavens he walked over to the cabinet and pulled on the handle and said "drawer"! He didn't talk much, but hopefully that one word convinced her that I wasn't one of those crazy moms who thinks their kid can do anything. Trust me, I know that he can't, I just know that he likes to talk! :)
Oh, here are a few new words:
stairs
bed
cycle
remote
glove
table
leg
elbow
ear
eye
elephant
diapers
drawer
The doctor suggested I get him talking on videotape (I just know she doesn't believe me!) so we'll do that soon along with taping his very cute version of Itsy Bitsy Spider.
I just loaded a TON of pictures onto the computer, so be prepared, new pics coming soon!
