I am a bit late typing this up, but realized over the weekend that my baby was 14 months old on Feb. 13th and Keatin celebrated her "1/2" birthday at preschool on Feb. 7th...they are getting SO old! :)
Will, at 14 months you...
Wear size 3 diapers...but once they are out, I am moving up to size 4.
Wear 18 months clothes. Some of the shirts are "belly shirts" on you, but you are forever walking on the cuffs of your pants. :)
And speaking of walking...you have been doing this since right around 13 months. And really I shouldn't say walking...I should say RUNNING. You are fast and busy...all over the place, all the time! I still love watching you come around the corner of the living room, down the hallway into the kitchen...seems like just yesterday you were crawling around that same corner. :)
No bottles, all sippy cups for you. Not a tear was shed when I took the bottle away...I pretty sure you didn't even notice. You drink milk and still prefer to have it a bit warmed up vs. cold out of the fridge...but we are working on that. :) I gave you some watered-down apple juice over the weekend...you drank it down!
Have 6 teeth for sure...and probably more like 8...I think you have 2 molars in the back that you don't always let me get my fingers on. :)
Go to bed around 8 and get up between 6-7 am. Nap 2 times a day.
Signing "please" and saying MAMA, DADA, BA-BYE, and a whole slew of other jibberish. :)
You make the MOO sound for a cow and the BABA sound for a sheep.
You can point to various body parts when we ask you where they are...like your nose and head.
L-O-V-E to play chasing games with your daddy and sister.
Doing so many "boy" things that I don't think Keatin EVER did...examples: throwing EVERYTHING, diving off furniture, hitting mommy in the face, and destroying all toys/games Keatin tries to play on the floor. Keatin and I call you Will-a-saurus.
But when you are tired, you are SO cuddly...way more than Keatin was. Give you your blanket, pacifier, and someone's arms to lay in...and you are a happy man!
Obsessed with anything electronic - cell phones, remotes, computers, i-pods, wii remotes...just a few examples. :) Daddy says it means you will be an IT guy some day. :)
AAHH - we love you little man. :)
Keatin, at 3.5 years you...
Wear 4T clothes and size 8 shoes.
Go to bed a little after 8 and get up between 6-7 am. You still nap most days in the afternoons, but could go a day here or there without a nap...but definitely not 2 days in a row. :)
Attend preschool 2 days mornings a week...and LOVE it. :) You ask EVERY DAY (including weekends) if it is a preschool day. :)
Such a good big sister. :) As Will has gotten older, there have been more conflicts...but for the most part, you are so loving, thoughtful, caring, and just "mother-ing." You are so good about clapping when he accomplishes something and you change the pitch of your voice. I can just hear you right now saying "good job buddy!" :)
LOVE to help mommy and daddy cook/bake.
In the fall, you were OBSESSED with Tangled. You still like it, but have recently become more obsessed with Dora.
Say the sweetest things sometimes. :) Just the other day out of the blue, you said - Mom, I like you. You are a nice mommy.
Write your name unassisted. (NOTE: only when you are in the right mood.) :)
Really enjoy "table" activities like: coloring, writing, painting, stickers, play-doh, dry-erase boards, cutting, gluing, and stencils.
Can recite prayers by yourself.
Think you are hot stuff because you can buckle your carseat all by yourself.
If you wake up early in the morning when you hear me get in the shower, you quietly lay in the hallway on your blanket (in the dark) until I am done in the shower. Then I almost trip over you every time. :) You then like to sit on the toilet in my bathroom and watch cartoons on my computer while I get ready.
We love you big girl...you challenge us, but also make our hearts smile with pride. :)
