18 Months

September 3, Cyrus turned 1 1/2. YEAH!
 
Some tid bits I don't want to forget about him at this age are:
 
-Very busy (he NEVER sits still for more than 2 seconds).
-Follows his big brother around.
-Loves to climb (I found him in the sink one day and had no idea how he managed to get up there).
















-Everything and everyone is 'dadty'.
-Only has 4 teeth (2 on top and 2 on bottom).
-His hugs and kisses are few and far between but so sweet when you do get one.
-Enjoys riding on Daddy's shoulders while he is mowing the lawn.
 
 
-He'd run away from us if he got the chance and never look back (Where's the stranger danger people talk about at this age?).
-He's good at giving high five and knuckles/bones/pound it (whatever you want to call it).
-Loves other kids.
-Wants to play the trumpet like his Grandpa.
 
-Enjoys putting objects in the toilet (including his head).
-Has been caught eating crayons.
-Very good at making a big mess (Especially when he eats).
 
-Likes to stand at the dishwasher and try to shut it while mom/dad is trying to put dishes in it.
-Drinks ALOT of milk.
-Likes to put lids back on containers, close drawers, doors or anything that is open
-Can say mama, uh-oh, dadty, baah (which means ball).
-I think he'd like to be a chicken because he enjoys hanging out in the coop.
-With as little amount of words he can say he's very good at comunicating with sounds or pointing. If that doesn't do the trick he'll just grab your finger and drag you to where he wants to go.
-Can say 'more', 'please' and 'all done' in sign language.
 
Yesterday I took Cy to his 18 month wellness check up. While we were waiting for the doctor to come in Cy found a cupboard and climbed inside to sit. Then of course Ryker wanted to join in, so the two of them sat in the cupboard while we waited for the doctor to come in.
His stats are...

Weight: 24.4lbs (28%)
Head Circum: 48.5cm (69%)
Height: 33 1/2 inches (80%)

I was totally blown away by his height percentile because he's always been in the 20's and 30's for Weight and Height. I mentioned that to Dr. Reese and so he wondered if maybe he was measured wrong. So he measured Cy himself and sure enough it was accurate. That means that Cyrus grew TWO INCHES since JUNE! That is just crazy. No wonder his clothes have been looking rather small on him.
