Chatty Chatty

18 Months

Jude is keeping up with the gang these days. I am keeping up with the challenges of an 18 month old now.  My biggest priority lately has been keeping Jude alive.  He is definitely true to the little boy ways.  Into everything, climbing on anything, attempting things that he is not capable of and making messes all along the way.  

Jude is starting to talk more and more. He has several distinct words that we can clearly understand.  He can mimic just about anything we ask him to.  His voice is just so cute.  

Favorite Words:

Happy, Outside, Shoe, Annie, Millie, Owen, Daddy, Mommy, Zoom, Bath, All done, Night-Night and Please

Jude loves to play hide and seek and chase.  I find him so frequently shut up in closets and cabinets unable to open the doors to let himself out.  He takes off running from us and laughs at himself.  Jude also likes to play on ride on toys.  He loves cars and trains, blocks and markers.  He also loves anything that he can dump out and leave for me to pick up. He enjoys being outside and playing in the basement.  He is fascinated with the vacuum for some reason.  

Jude sleeps 12 hours a night.  He goes to bed around 7:30 and is up around 7:30 the next morning.  He naps once a day around 1 and sleeps for about two hours.
