Miller's 18-Month Check-Up

Miller had his 18-month doctor's visit today. He weighs 25 pounds, 12 ounces, and is 33 inches tall...nearly as big as his sister! He'll have to wait until next week for his immunizations because he had a fever today (He was really disappointed). ;-) At 18 months, Miller...

*loves to be silly. He tickles Maggie and says "Ticka, ticka, ticka." He loves to hide and say "Boo!" when we find him. He's a silly boy!

*loves to play outside. When I get him dressed and put his shoes on in the morning, he runs to the front door and says, "Go, go!"

*will open the fridge and bring me the whole bottle of juice when his sippy cup is empty. He'll also go and stand in the pantry when he's hungry.

*will repeat almost any word he hears. Be careful what you say around him! :-)

*is a cuddler. When we pick him up, he puts his head on our shoulder and wraps his arms tight around us. I love it!

*doesn't like milk and won't touch meat. It's okay. He's still a healthy boy.

*has had four haircuts. Crazy! Maggie didn't get her first haircut until she was two.

*loves his paci. He never wants to part with it. He can find it anywhere. I put it on top of the fridge one day, and he went and stood by the fridge and pointed to it. It's like he has a built-in radar.

*wants to carry his blanket and lovey everywhere--in the house, outside, in Target--everywhere. And gets very upset if I won't let him. It's pretty cute, but we have to wash his blanket and lovey a lot.

*still melts his mama's heart each and every day.

We're so blessed to have our happy, healthy little boy, and it's amazing to watch him grow and learn new things. Here's a picture of our sweet baby boy at 18 months.

He loves to help out with the laundry! :-)
