Here is proof that Noah tries to climb out of the tub~
He never really got into pointing, he is doing it now but I have no idea what he is pointing for half the time. The one thing he does well is read! He loves books. He turns them rightside up and looks through the pages so intently pointing at the words.
I guess I am in a rush for him to walk because I want to start potty training him asap. I can start after he has been walking a couple months. I don't expect him to be going potty by himself at 18 months but I am sure we can at least get him going #2 on a seat with help. Noah is so funny, speaking of potty training, he will grab his pants and socks and put them over the right body parts, trying to put them on!
The guys at Stanford loved him, let us know that he is totally healthy and normal. While they can't say he does or doesn't have asthma they said to continue with the inhaler prn. Them seemed to be concerned about cats and dogs, but again are only saying he gas Reactive Airway Disease. His nighttime episodes where Lingo Malacia, basiclly his cartilidge hasn't hardened so it vibrates/rattles/ etc when he breathes, most pronounced when sleeping on his back. It is nothing and will go away soon. While there he weighed in at 25.6 lbs and measured 31". He is 80th percentile for height and 90th (I think they said) for weight.
What else did I learn? Noah's pedi is "very conservative" in the words of Dr. Cornfield and to expect "a lot of unnecessary test" in the words of Dr. Preston. This is the second time Noah's pedi was "laughed" at for her referrals. I am starting to get very concerned about the quality of care in the Modesto area. (look what happened when I was pregnant!) I guess it is better that we are safe than sorry.
Before Noah started to walk he was trying all sorts of words and now that he is trying to walk more everyday he seems to have abandoned his progress in the vocab department. While we were in CT he started to say things like ga goo, for thank you and nana for banana. I guess it is hard when you are learning a million new things at once! He says mommy now which is cute and baby, but it doesn't seem to mean anything. He's got Dada down. Dada this and Dada that. He is obsessed with Jay.

I need to get going, he is sleeping like a rock and it is almost 5pm! I don't want to be up all night.
