Sebastian ~ 18 Month Update

DAILY ROUTINE:

Wake up, get our diaper changed, eat breakfast and get dressed.  Monday, Wed, Thurs & Friday we take Maggie to school then play outside/inside at the house or run errands...unless it is Thursday, on Thursday you have your gymnastics! (On Tuesday, Saturday and Sunday we don't have to take Maggie to school and just go straight to our activities)  Then it is lunch and nap time.  Then we usually watch a show in the afternoon so Mommy can get her chores finished, then dinner, play with Mutti time, bath time and then we start bedtime... which is pjs and brush teeth, nurse, read a couple books, say a prayer then lights out.  

FOOD:

You have rejected the baby food pouches and are now just eating what we eat!  You are still nursing, I am slowly weaning you...  for now you still nurse a couples times a day but no longer at night time.  This week we are going to eliminate your morning feeding then you will only be nursing before your nap from time to time and consistently during your bedtime routine.

SLEEP: 

Night: Bedtime for you starts around 8 you typically fall asleep by 830 pm and you wake up at about 7 am.  You have been sleeping through the night!!  Well up until last week when we took a trip but we will get back in our groove.

Day: We are starting the one nap transition... some days you take 2 naps one around 11ish and one around 3ish.  But there are more days that you don't take your first nap until around 1 and you typically sleep for an hour and half some days more some days less. 

MILESTONES:

Words and mumbo Jumbo!

You say:
Momma
Zee = Zia
Outshy = outside
Sues Aw = Shoes On
whus sat= What's That
Up
See = Sip
Sih = Sit

You Sign:

You are still in the "putting things into things" phase.  You now put the trash in the trash when asked (of course you have been known to put other things in the trash that are NOT trash)  you put your dirty dishes in the sink when you finish your meal.

You pull the clean dishes from the dishwasher and hand them to me or Mutti to put away.

You do the back porch stairs solo.

You run all over the place and you are starting to try to Jump so far you haven't gotten off the ground but you are working at it!

WHAT'S FUNNY:

Pain is funny to you... You currently like to pull hair and occasionally bite to get a laugh at the reaction it brings and not just us your torment includes all the dogs... we are hoping this phase ends soon.

Zerberts.. You love to give and get zerberts!

All things involved in tickling is hilarious. And rough housing... you love to be tossed about onto a bed or couch and jiggled.

You also love to play chase with Maggie.... you love when Maggie or anyone chases you and you also love to chase Maggie.
