16 Months and 20 Pounds Later!

Laying in his playroom on his baseball pillow watching Scooby Do!

Take a look at the scale!!!

HE MADE IT!!! JAKOBE FINALLY REACHED 20 POUNDS!!! At 16 months he weighs 20 lbs 13 oz. He has 10 teeth. Some new things are: he likes to be chased, can run now, holds up 'number 1' with finger, can follow simple directions, brings you something you ask for (example: ball, sippy cup, or a specific toy), cheers for himself (claps and says yeah), does a thing we call his 'gangster walk', makes a high pitched noise that sounds like a pig squealing when he wants something, goes into his bedroom and waits by his crib when we tell him it's bedtime. New words: He finally says 'Mama' and 'Yeah'. Jakobe is just itching to get more and more words out. You can just see him study your mouth when you talk to him. He babbles constantly and he screams out of excitement. He is loud! Like his mom! He likes to put things in the cat door....that fall down the stairs. He also likes to put things in the VHS slot: like waffles, markers and spoons! His favorite songs are 'Bringing Home a Baby Bumble Bee' and 'Head, Shoulders, Knees, and Toes'. His favorite books are "Zoo Picnic" and "Numbers". He is such a smart little boy. He is so much fun to play with and to interact with. We are so lucky to have such a sweet and handsome little boy!!!
