1. His two new favorite words are "car" and "ball." He loves both of these objects as well and will play with them forever.
2. He ate two new things today: Tombstone pizza with peperoni and sausage (two meats) AND bourbon chicken that Shawn cooked for dinner (yummy-I love New Year's Resolutions)!
3. He now wears a size 4 diaper. When the red marks appear on the legs, it is time to go up a size
4. He loves to weigh himself on the digital scale. It's kind of unpredictable when you are as unbalanced as a 19 month old, but the low weight yesterday was 27 1/2 lbs and the high was 29. Even at the low this is an increase of a pound since his 18 month checkup.
5. Splashing is a new fun thing to do in the tub. He used to splash when he was smaller. Now that he's rediscovered the joys as a larger being, the splashing causes a much bigger mess.
6. He knows the bath time routine. First he demands that I put the "duck" on the spout. (The duck is the spout cover to protect his head.) While we are filling the tub, I undress him. He then pulls his diaper off HIMSELF. (God forbid I help.) Once in the tub and after his hair has been scrubbed, he dutifully stands up so I can scrub his legs, behind and boy parts. When he sits back down, he immediately lifts his feet (one at a time) so I can wash those. This kid cracks me up!
7. Among his many household tasks (washing dishes, doing laundry, cleaning bathrooms), he decided tonight to add baking to the list.
Please ignore the fact that we really need new oven mitts (or "pot gloves" as some people might say)...I am aware of this.
