Our 18 month old boy...

Zachary turned 18 months old on the 13th. I can't even believe that he is a year and a half. In six short months he will be TWO! It all goes by way too fast.

We had Zachary's 18 month appointment on Friday. He weighs a whopping 20 pounds 10 ounces. He's been moving along nicely on the 2% growth curve for weight :) He is 31 inches tall which puts him on the 15% growth curve for height. His head is always his biggest measurement. He's on the 50% growth curve for head circumference--a lot of brain up there. Our pediatrician is always impressed with Zachary's development. She says he's always been a little ahead. We, of course, think he's perfect in every way!

Zachary has been talking a lot lately, with new words emerging often. It's so fun to hear what comes out of his mouth. I'm not looking forward to the day when we hear a bad word in his sweet little voice. He hears them often enough with us as his parents :) It's bound to happen sooner or later.

Zachary is becoming more of a climber these days. We've always been able to leave him in the family room for a short amount of time, knowing that he is safe. Not anymore. This is what I saw upon my return from a quick trip to the bathroom...

Of course, I had to get my camera before telling him that it's not OK to climb on the table. Perhaps I am sending him mixed messages?
