1.5 and 3.5!!!

Last week our sweet little kids hit some milestones. Jaxon is officially 18 months and Savannah is very happy to now say that she is three and a half (although lately she tells people she is 16). Here are some little stats on our kids.

Jaxon

• He is very happy during daylight hours.
• He laughs a lot and loves to wrestle, flip, be tickled and chased.
• Jaxon's two favorite things in the world are Toy Story and drawing. He is usually found with either Buzz and Woody in his hands or a small notebook and a crayon (which he had to sleep with last night).
• Jaxon still does not talk much and is a man of very few words. I was told by the ENT when he got his tubes that he probably had not heard much for the 6 months prior and to expect a delay in speech.
• Jaxon understands a lot and thinks the word "no" is so funny.
• He loves to test boundaries and climb everything he can.
• Jaxon still hates sleeping in his room and is a worse sleeper now then ever before.
• His favorite shows are Sesame Street, Blue's Clues and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.
• He is now 31 inches tall and 25.4 lbs.

I love my little boy so much! He gives the best hugs and loves to cuddle and sit in my lap. His is becoming a bit more independent, but still loves his time with me.

Savannah

• Savannah is such a personality (as always).
• She loves playing soccer, drawing with chalk and playing games.
• She can sing lots of songs and thinks its funny to change up the words sometimes to see if we notice.
• Savannah has recently counted to 35 for me and is almost to 45 (she forgets a couple in between).
• She is eating better and on rare occasion will try something new.
• Savannah loves to play dress up and get into my make up too.
• Savannah is still overjoyed to not wear diapers and often talks to her brother about it.
• She loves to play with Jaxon, unless he wants Buzz and Woody to go into the Playmobil house.
• Savannah asks me for a sister often and now tells me that she will take her for walks in her doll stroller as an incentive.
• Savannah recently brought me a card with the Disney logo on it and told me what it said. This made me very proud.
• Savannah still loves tv more than she should and has recently started watching (and loving) the Disney cartoon "Gummy Bears."
• She has told everyone since she turned 3 that she wants to be a Dr when she grows up. Every adult that asks "how are you," gets the response "I am going to be a Dr." Dr visits are especially long because Savannah gets into deep discussions with them about school and work.
• Savannah is now 39 inches and 36.5 lbs. She is getting so big!!
• I love shopping for her in the girls department instead of the toddler section.

Savannah is such a sweetheart and a great big sister. She is very good at sharing and loves to talk. She tells me all the time that she loves me and knows just how to brighten my day. She is such a blessing in my life and I am so happy we have her!
