Jace is 18 Months

My baby is already 18 months old and acts like a little man:) He is growing up so fast. I looked for more pictures of just him to put on his post, but he doesn't sit still long enough for me to take any! He had his 18 month check up this morning and is healthy as an ox. He is growing great and is pretty advanced in his motor skills and vocabulary.
18 month stats:

weight: 27.7 pounds (75th %)
height: 34 inches ( 90th %)

You can see from his height the kid is huge!! He wears 2T clothes and I hope he stays there a while since that is all I have for him for summer so far:) He is slimming up a bit, but he still eats about everything in sight. He just started drinking chocolate milk this week too for the first time ever!! Yay! Neither of my kids have ever drank milk in any form once they quit nursing/formula, so this is quite the accomplishment at our house:) Tyson still doesn't even like chocolate milk, so who knows with him. They both eat lots of dairy though, and they both eat cereal regularly with milk in it, so I know they are getting some calcium at least.



Jace can walk up and down stairs holding onto your hand or the wall just fine. He turns around and scoots when he wants to go fast though. He runs all the time and loves jumping off the couch. He climbs everything in sight. He can open the fridge and get to almost anything he wants! He has shown some indications of trying to climb out of his crib in the mornings, so I am making a plan to get him moving into a twin bed soon. He loves trains, firetrucks, being outside, and taking his bath. Basically he loves anything his older brother likes or does:) They are starting to play together better, which I love!
Jace is talking up a storm! He has a vocabulary of at least 75-100 words at this point, and will repeat almost anything you say. He has started using some phrases too, such as "you hear it?" and "where it go??" He gets so frustrated when we don't understand him, and his litle face just lights up when he talks and we get what he says. It's cute. He loves the word "no" and doesnt know how to say "yes." If he wants something he will just smile and say "ok!" He loves mother's day out and his teachers there. He loves playing outside and would stay there all day. He can scribble on paper with a crayon, but doesn't seem to love it. He loves animals of all kinds. He still has his paci and has recently become very attached to his blankey too. He goes to bed super easy and sleeps from 7:30 pm til 7:30 am. He takes one afternoon nap from about 12 pm til 3pm most days. He is energetic and happy and full of life. He is so capable and independent just like his brother. He is also my rough and tumble kid for sure. Hopefully I will get some more pictures of just him soon!
