14 months!

Weight: 

Size Clothing: Hes starting to get too big for 12-18 month clothing so onto 18 and 18-24 mo clothing! :-/

Milestones: I feel like he is so much more verbal and communicative than evie was at his age! i checked back at evies old blog posts and right now micah's talking the same at 14 mo that evie was saying at 15.5 mo! so definitely a bit faster on the verbal skills. His list of words are : book, bye, mama, more, hi, back,cheese, this, thank, please, kiss, dada and he signs more, all done, kiss, thank you, please and eat. He is also shaking his head yes when we ask him questions and do things on command like stand, kiss, hi bye cheese etc.

his CHEESE face

we are still not walking yet! altho he is standing from a sit position and will take 1 step at a time. i think he gets excited when we get excited so he just sits back down after a step. hopefully by the end of the month he'll be walking! so much easier once he can walk on his own! hes not eating as well this month but it might be teething? hes still stuck at 6 teeth but drooling on and off so maybe more are on the way? 

His sleep and schedule is the same as the last couple months. He is starting to drop to 1 nap most days of the week. I do try to get 2 naps out of him on the days i'm working from home which seems to be working out! 

In big sis' car! This guy is very curious about how things work so he kept trying to open the door himself and finally got it and sat inside. I'm thinking future engineer!

Big world out there...

13 months!

Weight: 

Size Clothing: Hes in 12-18 month clothes and size 4 shoes still! 

Milestones: He says book, bye, mama, more, hi, and back. Back is definitely a random word, but he knows it because his favorite song right now is walk the moon and every time we sing "don't you dare look back" he always says back on cue! he waves hi and bye when he says the words. he isn't walking yet. he stands for brief periods of time and will walk really well with a walker, but won't let go! hehe he seems to be on the same pace as evelyn. we also paci weaned last month! evelyn didn't have a paci so we never went through that with her but micahs pediatrician could tell he sucked on something snice his teeth were starting to push out so she told us to start weaning. it was actually quite painless and he barely noticed it was gone thankfully! Hes on whole cows milk now. he had no problems transitioning the second time (the first time he had an allergic reaction that seemed to coincide with our first attempt at wcm but apparently wasn't related). no diarrhea, no constipation, etc. so different from when evelyn transitioned! and shes still having milk issues at almost 3yo! :-/

Schedule: 7am- wakeup,  8am- breakfast (milk)  nap 9-11am, 11-snack (water), 1230-lunch (milk) nap 2-4pm, 4pm-snack(water), 530pm-dinner (milk), 730pm-some milk! 

Sleep:  He sleeps about 730pm-7am. his naps are about 9-11am and 2-4 ish at home. at daycare he naps from around 12-2! 

Loves music and dance (thanks KT!!)

I didn't realize i haven't updated this blog in 3 months!! My poor 2nd child. I love him so much but life is just so busy. Here's our one year update!

Weight: 21lb 11oz (55%)

Height: 2ft 5in (16%)

Head Circumference: 46.25cm (53%)

Size Clothing: Hes in 12-18 month clothes and size 4 shoes! 

Milestones: He started regular crawling around 11 months old! He has been cruising for a couple months now and finally a week ago he started letting go and standing on his own! I predict he won't be walking for another month or so, earlier than Evie tho (15months for her!). He is signing "More" and "All done". He might be saying more and mama too but i'm not 100% sure. He loves to point at his favorite characters (elmo!) and claps at himself after he points. He loves when people are singing and will dance right away. He's eating like a champ. I'm pretty sure he eats more than Evelyn at this point. Hes catching up to her in weight!

Weight: 

Size Clothing: Hes in mostly 9 month and 12 month clothing although he is still wearing some 6 month pants! He's a big boy!

Milestones: He's getting good at sitting by himself. He could sit by himself for a long time but usually he'll get bored and want to get down after a couple minutes. Hes not crawling yet but he was scooting backwards for a little bit. He is super active though for a boy who can't crawl! He won't stay still! He's eating solids pretty well. He loves purees and puffs. I tried chunkier foods this week but he gagged alot. Still not ready for that. He also loves mum mum's! He also got his two bottom teeth this month! Wasn't too cranky which is diff from when evie first got teeth!

His favorite things: Sitting up and grabbing toys, or anything in front of him (including evie's hair/feet/clothes/etc!), He loves watching daddy play guitar and watches his big sister play. He also loves her princess castle that plays music! hehe anything that moves or plays music he loves!

6 months!!!

Weight: 17lb 15oz (58 percentile)

Height: 25.5in (10 percentile)

Size Clothing: Anywhere between 6-12 month clothing! He's outgrown Carters 9m sleepers (no more sleep n plays! :-( He still fits in onesies and shirts that are anywhere between 6m and 12m. His pants size are also between 6m and 9m. Sad the sleeper days are over because he was living in them during our winter! 

Milestones: Rolling all over the place!! Can't keep this one still. He loves rolling around and especially loves rolling under beds! He is trying to crawl and can lift his stomach alittle bit but otherwise he's just flailing his arms and legs trying to crawl. He can sit up for a couple min on his own and can rebalance himself better. He's doing alot of shrieking and squealing these days. 

Schedule: He wakes up 7am and takes a 7oz bottle, naps around 9-11am, takes a 6oz bottle, naps around 1-3pm, takes a 6oz bottle, and then may or may not nap again after that. He has his night bottle around 730 pm and then goes to sleep after. We've been trying to eat solids at 8am, 12pm, and 5pm. but it depends on how crazy the day is. He is an eating machine tho! Evie wouldn't eat purees very well but this guy can eat 2.5oz container of food in a couple min! 

Sleep:  He still sleeps about 8pm-7am. his naps have gotten better. usually 1-2 good naps (1.5-2hrs) and 1-2 cat naps (30min-1hr). he usualy only naps 2-3 times a day though. the naps are looking alot better tho! 

His favorite things: He loves being on his tummy while sleeping and playing. He loves looking around at other kids and at his sister! He loves his jumperoo and his paci still. He doesn't necessarily suck on his paci but he likes to chew on the little animal. He loves being held esp when hes fussy. He loves food! 

Playing with sis!
