~Brayden 16 Month Highlights~
I always say that I am going to keep up with what has changed from month to month as I notice it but never do so let's see what my pregnant & exhausted butt can remember........
Brayden is so smart; he understand more than he says. If we ask him for OR to do something he completely gets it.
He is talking up a storm & his vocabulary & sign language are ever growing; we still have trouble understand all of what he says says he still speaks some "babble" but we understand a good bit.
He has found his temper & this I am not happy about. He mostly gets it when he is playing & has pooped & doesn't want me to change him so he throws a huge too do. He has just recently started to hit & pull my hair while he is on his changing table & I am trying to put a stop to that quickly (any suggestions would be greatly appreciated).
He is still in size 4 diapers & in 18 month clothes. I feel as though he has had a major growth spurt though & his 18 month pants are almost getting to short.......someone needs to make long & lean clothes for kids because if I have to put him in 24 month pants the waists are going to be WAY to big.
He has about 4-5 teeth coming in right now; I think that 2 have finally popped through on the bottom but he doesn't let me in there very often so I am not for sure.
He loves to wash his hands & brush his teeth & everytime we go upstairs to play he runs straight for his bathroom.
He is still an amazing little eater & has gone back to eating veggies but he has slowed down on how much he eats & now hates sweet potatoes which he used to love.......I think it might be his teeth bothering him though.
He still get his binky at nap & bed & I NEED to just stop it all together; I keep saying I am going to do it but I just haven't. Did you guys take your kids away cold turkey or is there a trick?
He is staying up until 7:30pm now so the next step is 8pm; he is still not sleeping in later on a regular basis but we are getting there!!
He is a precious angel & even on his "bad" days he is still an amazing happy & joyous little boy. He gives the best hugs & kisses that a parent could ever ask for though & melts my heart daily with just one look!! I just took random pictures yesterday since he was a bit grumpy so here are his 16 months pictures.............
(I think I have a shoe addiction)
He does go straight for the tree when we are upstairs but is pretty good about just touching it & not pulling ornaments off.
Absolutely precious! You look great. Oh yes, my 16 month old has also found his temper when he doesn't get what he wants...
ReplyDeleteGorgeous - you look absolutely amazing! I am SO jealous that Brayden doesn't attack the tree. Can he come over and give my boys a talking-to?! I had to gate off my tree :( I'm glad things are progressing nicely for you. 16 months...it sure has gone by fast!
ReplyDeleteyour bump is so super cute!! and of course brayden looks adorable, always :) i love that he has so many shoes, i've already gotten my little guy more shoes than my hubby has, haha ;)
