16 months

Gavin weighs 26.2 lbs
He has all his teeth except his "canines"
A few of Gavin's favorites................
food---------pizza and strawberries and cheese puffs
toy-------------John Deere tractor and his puppy
thing to do-------------------go outside!!!!!!! This child would live outside if we let him! While outside he really loves to go down the slide and go on tractor and go-cart rides. When it's time to come in, he usually lays by the door and cries ;(
TV show------------Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
sign-------------"more"- he tries to use it to mean everything
favorite word---------baby
A few things that happened this month............
*Gavin got his first real ouie! He was going down the slide and his foot got caught behind him and he twisted/sprained his ankle. He wouldn't walk on it for 2 days :( Very sad
*He ate dog poop! I KNOW!!! The absolute worst experience thus far for both of us
*He understands sooooo much......almost everything we tell him- it seems as though he knows what to do
*The new signs he knows- help & outside
*he and I both think his little sisters name should be Mia. One night at home he walked around saying "Mia Mia Mia Mia".....I take that as a sign :)
*such a cuddle bug! And loves to give kisses and "squeezes"(hugs)
watching grandma's fish is sure fun!
