Emmitt is at the year and a half mark and it. is. awesome. He is repeating EVERYTHING we say and communicating with us so much more. He is starting to work on putting short sentences together like "my turn now" (a favorite when talking to Aiden..). He sings "ABCDEFG" for his abc's and loves to sing himself to sleep in his crib and hum after he wakes up and is just chillin in his crib. Its the cutest! Music in general is definitely a "passion" of his, just like his big brother. We have many a dance parties throughout our weeks :)
He loves other kids, babies and older kids! And he loves animals.. especially kitties :) He is happy, smiling, giggling almost all the time. Seriously. Unless we have been outside and have to come back in.. then he is mad. ;) He could just explore outside all day long. He loves to read books and play with Aidens toys, especially his cars and trucks. He also has really taken a liking to jumping on the trampoline!
He plays with Aiden a lot more and tries to do everything he does.. couple examples:
1. When is has to poop he says, "Poopy, potty!" and wants to sit on the toilet. We let him but I have already decided I am NOT potty training him. Ive hear the second one kind of just does it on their own sometimes.. thats what Im hoping for E.
2. He climbs things. High things. Dangerous things.
He is just over 24 pounds. 50th percentile in weight and height. Ever since he got his tubes he has stayed a bit more healthy. One ear infection a month after they went in at the end of December, but none since then. He has the flu right now. Its awful. He just throws up everywhere, refuses to use the bucket. Aiden had it 12 hours ago and threw up 8 times in about 3 hours.. we are on number 7 and hour three with E so hopefully he is about done!! It just breaks your heart as a parent to see your little babies sick :(
Don't leave this age baby boy..
