19 Months

Colton is becoming such a big boy.  He moved to the "2's & Waiting" room on Monday, February 28th and had a really great week in the new room.  His reports came back well and he did a great job minding Miss Missie and Miss Megan.  He's back with some of his old friends and is learning new things everyday!

We've had a few weeks of sickness in our house but we are all healthy now (so far!)  Colton's been a little fussy lately and we are wondering if he isn't already working on his 2 year molars!  We can't feel anything but we have the drooling, runny nose, grumpiness that normally goes along with teething.

What Colton is up to now:
  • He's discovered "poot" and "burp"  He uses the term "poot" for poop or passing gas and he'll say "I burp" whenever he burps. 
  • He's permanently in his big boy bed now and he was rewarded with a nice little 22" flatscreen TV for his bedroom to watch Mickey before he goes to bed.
  • If you ask him to say the magic word (which is please) he says "Meeska" as in Meeska Mooska Mickey Mouse.  The magic word to make the clubhouse appear!
  • He's learned that an octagon means stop
  • He is now using the word "woah" and in the right context
  • He's learned what a "boo boo" is
  • He's learned how to properly use the word "yucky" ... sometimes he even says "icky yucky"
  • He prefers showers over baths
  • He's really good at pointing out animals and telling you what sound they make
It's been an exciting month though.  We had a princess themed birthday party for Miss LeiLa at our house.  We booked our first family vacation to Gulf Shores for the end of July.  We attended a Super Bowl party with our neighbors.  We took Colton skating for the first time.  We've successully moved Colton to a big boy bed and he's now in a big boy class at daycare ... I'm curious to see what this month brings!
