Wow it has been sooo long. And how things have changed. We have a 1 1/2 yr old! Rylar has turned out to be a little "Baby Genius". You can never under estimate this little man and what he knows or is capable of. I usually don't tell people his milestones since it is bragging a bit but we are so proud!
At this point in time, he can read more words than we can keep count of (well over 100) which he of course also says. He is starting to read phrases or groups of words. Talks constantly and repeats everything you say and puts multiple words together. Of course he's a monkey and there isn't anything he can't climb. He can also count to about 12 now, the teens are confusing of course. And he knows almost his whole alphabet, there are about 3 that give him a hard time. He knows all of his shapes; square, triangle, oval, star, diamond, circle, sometimes rectangle. His favorite thing to do right now are I Spy books! It's amazing to watch. In just a couple of days he will memorize the whole book and can find anything you ask him too.
Though the one thing Rylar is having a hard time with are his colors. He can read all their names and knows them but cannot correctly label them. I'm not quite convinced he's not color blind.
He still has tons of spirit in everything he does. He still throws temper tantrums though they are getting less often and don't last quite as long. Since he understands so much we have already started time out which he fully grasps and works beautifully. Most of the time he will stop when given his warning!
We are starting pre-potty training! His pediatrician recommended we go ahead since he's so aware and advanced. He just told me he was wet and needed a dry diaper for the first time!! So it's a start.
It's also amazing to see how big he is after starting out so very small! He is almost 3 feet tall! He is in the 95% for height and 15% for weight, so it looks like he will be very tall and skinny! I call him my string bean. He's finally getting more hair, and his eyes are officially hazel!
And I definitely can't forget that he sleeps through the night now!!! This was a huge one of course!! It only took about 15 months!
He still is a sweet and affectionate boy which we all love! He loves people, though doesn't have too much interest in younger kids, except to point out that they are babies. He really is a little boy now and never ceases to amaze us!!!
