I am so happy that Frank is 18 Months... now I can say he is a year and a half and stop talking in months for a while!! He is such a big boy now {his well-baby check-up is Monday so we will know HOW big then} He looks like a real little man.
Here are some of his Favorite things at 18 Months:
Foods: Still loves blueberries {says and signs "blues"}, grapes, rice-cakes, peanut butter crackers, apples.
Toys: Playing on the slide, his new sand/water table, Little tikes car, and any/every car truck we have...
Movies: Aladdin...
Activities: Playing at the park, going for walks, the pool, climbing on everything{he loves to climb into his stroller and buckle himself in}, going up and sown the stairs.
Words/Signs: Frank loves to talk! His favorite words are "Moo Peese" (More Please), Juuce (Juice), Sliiide (slide), and No. He says a lot of new words now and is starting to ask for things {juice, crackers, blues, etc} by name and not just pointing and screaming. He also likes to mimic everything we say or he hears {better watch what we say now!!}

Pushing his bear around the house
Pulling up a chair for his bear to sit in

So nice... I may just rest here with you...
Frank and his Gund Bear 18 Months
One a side note: Frank has been telling us when he has "pooped" by saying and signing "dirty" for a few weeks now. Recently he will even say/sign "dirty" prior to "pooping" as well... he also has taken a serious interest in the toilet, flushing it and using it... I was not planning on even thinking about potty training till next spring/summer... but it has been suggested to me to start with him because he is showing the signs he is interested... I am open to ANY suggestions people have about starting potty training... maybe he is ready??

unmmm- not very experienced with having a child that young interested in the potty. drew is interested- but only because luke uses it, but i don't think at 18 months they are quite have the bladder control to hold it in etc when you are out and about.... but i would get a potty- put it in the bathroom- frank can sit on it, try it out- even maybe every night before he goes to bed make it a routine- if he loves it great, if not just leave it out until he becomes interested in it again (usually around 1). most boys i have known are not potty trained until 3...
hope this helps:) good luck!:)
