18 months old

Our boys are growing up so fast. They are already 18 months old. They had their 18 month check up on December 22. At 18 months ...............

Aiden - 24 lbs 3 oz and 2ft 9 inches tall

Landon- 24 lbs 9 oz and 2ft 9.25 inches tall

Cooper - 23 lbs 5 oz and 2ft 8.75 inches tall

The boys are learning so much everyday. They are saying more and more words and can even make two word sentences. They will repeat anything you say. Their new favorite words are Bob (Bob the Builder), Ivy (our dog), Frosty, Santa, hot and touch. Cooper loves to tell his daddy "stop it" while pointing his finger at him. Jason can just be sitting there minding his own business and Cooper will go over to him and say "stop it." It is so funny to see!!

In all Aiden, Landon and Cooper can say a little over 50 words. Based on the milestone sheet that we received from our pediatrician, at 18 months they are expected to say 7 - 12 words. Also, saying two word sentences is not expected until they are 24 months. We are so proud of our boys especially since they were born two months early and they are ahead of where they are supposed to be.
