18 months old


Jack is officially a year and a half!  Measuring off the chart in height at 35 inches.  We just came home from his 18 month check-up.  (Olivia went off the chart in height at 18 months too.)  Crazy, for their dad to be 5'11 and for mom to be 5'7 that they are off the chart in height.  Still a light eater weighing in at 25 lbs.  I have a feeling he will always be long and lean - just like his Grandpa Ernie.

Jack's main interests include playing outdoors, balls, books, blocks, our swing set, spotting airplanes in the sky, and bike rides.  He is a very docile child.   A very easy toddler.  And an excellent sharer.  I am lucky.  He does like to pull sisters hair a lot, but that's just a sibling thing, I guess.

He is still rather clingy to me, but I don't mind.  He has 6 more months before he has to share my attention with another baby in the house.  Until then, I will continue to hold him, rock him and cradle him as much as I possibly can.  He is so lovable and loves to be loved on.  But, I guess who doesn't, right?

I am enjoying watching him grow up into a little boy.  He is one of a kind.
