19 going on 20 months

Noah went to see the doc today. Got his first haircut. Peed on the potty again for the 5th time in the last two days!

He has really got more verbal, signing thank you, food, more, library, night night, playground...

He has lots of words too. Bubbles, OK, yeah, baba, mama, dada, go, more, please, Peter, eyes, doggie, kitty, that, Grandma, CJ, night night, ball, wow, see,oh, cheese, boo boo, hello, play, poo poo, star... He knows his body parts.

He has gone potty 5 times on the big potty the last 2 days!! It is very exciting! 

K-

bed time.

Almost 2 months.

What is new and exciting?

Not much. Noah is doing great, although he has thinned out quite a bit. Inspired by Lily Metcalf Noah has been on the binky wagon for the past several days. He is doing well. Each day gets easier but I can tell he has a shorter fuse. I almost feel abusive taking it away. It is like he can't find a way to soothe himself. Today he punched me in the eye and headbutted my ear. It was rough. I can't get him to stop hitting. So if you have any suggestions, feel free. I have tried it all (or so I think).

He is really coming into his own. We have been blessed with the terrible two's since 13 months and it is only getting worse! He throws fits all day long when he isn't being so cute it's painful! He has gotten into hugging my legs, I love it!

Well more later. Sorry no pictures. You can see them on Facebook.

mmmmm potty

Noah is just as cute as ever. He is busy all the time.
Sadly he has discovered hitting. We are working on that.
He continues to love kitties. We finally found a stuffed one for him in Jamestown, CA.
As I may have mentioned we introduced the potty a few months ago. He was interested in taking his potty chair apart, but not putting it to use. He is now getting interested in the potty for its intended use. He lets me know if he pooped and we empty his diaper in the toilet. He loves to flush it and says bye to the poop! Sometimes he will take off a freshly wet diaper and hand it to me. I will take whatever I can get. I don't want to push him that's for sure!
As he gets smarter it is increasingly difficult for him. He isn't always able to communicate and it really frustrates him.

I don't have new pictures. As you might have noticed I have been slacking. School has me pretty busy, especially as the semester is winding down!

I'll keep you all posted on his potty progress.
p.s. Daddy brought home pull ups today.
