16 months old

Davis is sleeping 13 1/2 to 15 1/2 hours in a 24 hour period. He successfully went down to one nap a day without any trouble! A typical day is waking up between 0730-0830. He plays in the crib for awhile before he wants to get out. We have breakfast by 0900 and then have the morning to play around the house, take a walk to the park, or run errands. I am loving one nap a day. It really frees us up to go places! Lunch is at 1200 and then I let him play until 1230. Nap usually lasts 2-3 hours. Daddy gets home by 1630 so I work on supper then. Dinner is at 1730 and then he plays until bath time. Bath time is by 1900 and he is usually asleep by 1930. Here are tidbits from this month:
  • At his 16 month appointment, he finally tripled his birth weight! He weighed 21 pounds, 13 ounces (11th percentile for kids his age) 32.5 inches long (80%) and head circumference is still 18.5 (39%). 
  • His new words this month are: Mommy (instead of Momma!) yes, shoes, Lella (Bella), night-night, socks, pie (I have no idea why he says this but he always says it after dinner and he has never eaten pie!) nola (granola), boo (peek a boo), dat (that). Words he already has been saying are: Daddy, baba (sippy cup), nana (banana), eat,  hi, no, uh oh, car, doggy, light, side (outside) yuck, ball and baby. He will repeat most every word!
  • Wears size 18 months clothes, size 5 shoe, and will be moving to a size 4 diaper when we are through the last box of 3s
  • Finally has a third tooth up top.
  • Likes to help around the house and very interested in what others are doing



  •  Will give kisses if you ask!
  • Hard to get pictures of him because as soon as he sees the camera he comes running: These pictures were taken 5 seconds apart!
