My Little Toddler

Well, at 15 months old, this dude is a sponge. Each day he is surprising me with the new actions, gestures, noises, word attempts, and some of the more "grown up" things he is doing.



Here's the rundown of the good stuff:

Night-weaned-Finally!! About 5 weeks ago. Sleep had been a major issue in our household...frequent night wakings, long night wakings, difficulty going to sleep, not being able to go to sleep or settle himself, etc. We tried a few different methods and went with what worked for us...and yes, it did work, obviously. Most nights we get a full nights sleep and Andy & I are able to have some down time-just the two of us. It's nice.



Augie Stats:
Height-8th percentile
Weight-20lbs 12 oz-6th percentile
Head circumference -still large-60th percentile

Augie's Dr. is happy with his growth, as it has been consistent and steady. He's still just a small guy. Nothing wrong with that.



Likes
  • Fave foods: tomatoes, avocado, cucumbers, fruit/veggie/grain pouches, applesauce, yogurt, potatoes, Applegate Farms breakfast sausage (seriously), and a new found enjoyment for green olives
  • Fave toys: dinosaur, animal toys, cars,balls, Doug, anything that's not a toy-specifically Dad's old cell phone
  • Eating with a fork!
  • Pacifier:YES-3 at bedtime

  • Books: Too many to name!! Loves 'em.
  • Making animal noises: roar (dino, hippo, and several other animals) meow, wuff, neigh, ooh ooh (monkey), elephant noises (with trunk movements), owl (ask him what an owl says-"owwwwwl")
  • Running and trying to jump
  • Stretching and doing yoga 
  • Drawing, painting and stickers!
  • Throwing balls
  • Tubbies and bedtime routine
  • Being outside and playing




Dislikes

  • Foods: depends on the day
  • Diaper changes-it's a battle sometimes
  • Coming in from outside
  • Lengthy car rides



Augie is starting to "talk" more. He tries to repeat a lot of words that we say and he constantly wants to know "What's that?" He's done this for months and it's starting to pay off. He's very intelligent...I might be biased~slightly. Love him.

38 Weeks (and counting) Belly pic

Now we're getting antsy. I hit uncomfortable a few weeks ago...I can deal with that. Now we are just antsy to meet the little guy and introduce him to his family and friends. I think Andy & I are in fast forward mode all of a sudden, just wanting the time to fly by... Looking at pictures from last week it appears I may have dropped slightly...maybe?...maybe not? I guess I can sort of breath a little easier. I'm not waddling like many people say you do when this happens...I'm just slow...haha. I'm not nesting either. I've posted to Facebook to tell friends what I've been up to and they say I am, but really that's just me. I'm totally anal retentive and a perfectionist and have to have things in their place. This is my norm. Not anything new.  38 weeks 37 weeks As the time draws near my patients at work continue to say things like, "You're still here?" and "Had that baby yet?" (most annoying question ever). Ye...

4/17/11: Carlyle Pizza Scramble

A & I went to Carlyle Brewery last night for dinner before hitting Spring ArtScene 2011 . Dinner was great, as was ArtScene, where we ran into some old friends. We had some leftovers of our pepperoni, green & black olive and mushroom pizza and instead of hitting our usual Sunday morning breakfast spot, Mary's Market , we decided to re-create our amazing pizza scramble. Just added red peppers, green onion, a dash of zesty pepper jack cheese and eggs to the mix w/a side of avocado and toast w/honey.....mmmmm. Oh yeah and a bit of Carlyle Stout to round out the meal. What a great way to start a stay at home Sunday!
