22 Months {WW #31}

Filed Under: Family, Photography Tagged With: Wordless Wednesday


I know I say this every month but I seriously can not believe how close he is getting to 2 years old. I guess maybe it is extra hard for me since he still acts and looks like a 6-9 month old? Not sure. I am excited to start planning his 2nd Birthday Party.


Stats:

*Weight | 24lbs

*Height | 30 inches

*Wearing some 18 month clothes

*Size 3 diapers almost ready to move to size 4

*One nap in the afternoon, about 3 hours.

What’s New:

*He is getting closer to army crawling. He still needs your hand to push off with his foot. But he is now bringing his legs up on his own and pulling his hands out after pushing forward.

*He LOVES using my iPhone.

*He loves being outside

*He has started just laughing at random people. It is pretty funny and cute.

*His favorite food right now is any kind of dessert. Pudding, cheesecake, cake, brownie, but NOT icecream.

*Is obsessed with the DVD player in the car. It is is off he will cry till we turn it on.

*He really is ready to move around. I hope when we see his rehab doctor the will get him set up for a gait trainer. Basically it is a walker for kids.

*His four front bottom tooth finally broke through. I thought he was always going to have three down there. He has already gotten his molars so it came at an odd time.

*I think he is working on his canine teeth now because he has not been too happy lately.

In general he is a happy boy. Unless he is tired or doesn’t get what he wants. That is pretty normal behavior for a 22 month old I would say. Which to me is a good thing.

    I know it seems like he's slow on the growth Sarah- but trust me- from this view point, I can certainly see a huge difference in this last year! Look at all his cute hair now!! He is getting so big!!! It's been really exciting to watch him grow & learn since I "met" you so long ago.

    Your little man is such a cutie pie!!! The Speech Language Pathologist in me wonders if he is getting speech therapy and how is he communicating? Sorry to be so nosy..I'm always curious. I've worked with some kiddos with HPE.

    March 14, 2012 at 8:53 am

    Aw, sweet, sweet pics Sarah! The months go by so quickly. He's a sweetie pie. How funny that he doesn't like ice cream. My kiddos all went through phases of being obsessed with electronics too....wait, if it's still on-going I guess it's not a phase ;P
  27. Lori says

I'm still in awe of how far my library and plant r I'm still in awe of how far my library and plant room have come. Every time I step inside, I feel so happy to see my shelves filling up and my collections growing. 🙌🏼

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
