16 Months!

Wesley is 16 months old today!  Two of my close friends have had babies recently, and seeing them at the very beginning of the journey just makes me realize how much has happened in our lives in the past 16 months, and how grateful we are for every second!  Here is whats going on this month:

Wesley stats:

• Head Circumference - 19.5 in (90%)
• Weight -  26 lbs (60%)
• Length -  33 in (80%)
• Clothes - 18-24 months in all clothes and size 5 shoes.
• Food - He loves it all!  In the next couple of months I plan to start working with him on using a plate (one that suctions to his high chair tray) and fork/spoon - I may have to wrap my kitchen in plastic before I attempt this :)
• Sleep - Sleeps though the night!  Pretty much down to one nap a day - naps much better at home (up to 3 hours) than at school (1 1/2 to 2 hours max).
• Talents/interests - Loves being outside and doing whatever his daddy is doing.  Corey has been working on our backyard on the weekends and evenings lately, and Wesley wants to be out there with him so badly!  He will stand and stare out the back door and beg to go out there.  He's started to really mimic what we do and say - we can make a noise or sound or say a word and most of the time he can repeat it.  Corey has taught him to whistle (which he teases me about b/c I can't whistle).  Lately he's been picking up the remote control and saying 'hello?' like its a phone.  He can say cheese, cookie, milk, juice, bite-bite, ball, bath, mommy, daddy, shoe, bye, uh-oh, and lots of words that only he can recognize :)  He can wave bye-bye, blow kisses, give high fives, and give kisses goodnight when asked.

So thankful for you everyday Wesley man!
