17 Months

Posted on November 19, 2010 Written by Tonya

We are just weeks away from the year and a half mark and Lucas is growing and changing and learning everyday. Here’s what he has been up to this month:
  • Asks for help when he needs it most of the time.
  • Says “thank you” most of the time. We are working on “please”.
  • Grabs our hands and says “hand” when he wants to take us somewhere, but isn’t always quite sure where.
  • Climbs on everything.
  • Loves to practice using keys, utensils and hair brushes.
  • Has officially given up his morning nap and fairly consistently sleeps from 1:00 – 3:00.
  • Has major separation anxiety upon one or both of us leaving, but it soon subsides, or so we’ve been told.
  • Has become leery of the dark.
  • Still prefers the bottle over a sippy cup, but will drink juice and water from time to time.
  • Has started drinking cow’s milk!! Yay, no more stinky formula.
  • Enjoys throwing toys when he’s grown tired of them and dumping his food on the floor when he’s done eating. Good times.
  • Loves being a passenger on Daddy’s bike ride.
  • Is learning family members names.
  • Has learned how to pull his pull toys.


    We are so lucky to have this little boy in our lives.

    That food on the floor thing I wish would end. At least at our house. Not my fave, you know?

    It all starts to move so fast. The learning. The personality blooming.
    I'm trying to watch my grandson (22months) in slo-mo.

    Oh man, he just gets more adorable as he gets older! Such a fun stage, and things change every day I'll bet.

    Such a cute video! It's so good to see Lucas in motion! He's such a sweet heart!
    They to eventually get over the "throwing the food" part! Not quite sure about the toys though ; )
