Brecken's 19 month stats:

• Weight: 19 lbs 9 oz (2nd percentile) 
• Length:  31.5 inches (19th percentile)
• Clothes: You are wearing 6-12 month bottoms and 12-18 month shirts. You are wearing 12 month sleepers. 
• Shoes: You wear a size 4 shoe.
• Diapers: Mostly cloth diapers with Pampers (size 3) at night
• Food: You still eat the majority of your food at breakfast.  Lunch is usually a bite or two of whatever we are eating and then you eat pretty well at dinner.  You like waffles, pancakes, french toast, eggs, shredded wheat cereal, strawberries, quesadillas, grilled cheese, pizza, chicken, spaghetti, graham crackers, granola bars, watermelon. You are drinking whole milk and love water.
• Development:  You love to read books before bed.  You can run fast and rarely fall. You have a good throwing arm but tend to do things left handed. You have an insane love for the lawn mower.  You now pretend to start your mower before you push it anywhere.  And every time we go in the garage, you run to the lawn mower and look at us like we should mow the lawn.
• Words: You have started to talk a lot in the past month and repeat a number of things when we say them to you.  You like to say "I do" when we ask "Who wants to go to the park" or Who's hungry?"  You can meow, bark and tweet for the appropriate animals.  You say thank you and sign for please.
• Teeth: July 24 you got your 14th tooth, your left upper canine.
• Sleep:  You go to bed around 7:30 pm and wake up at 7-8 am.  You take a 1.5 hour morning and afternoon nap.  Your morning nap is around 9 and afternoon around 1.
• What I love about you: If you want to do something, you will figure out a way to do it. You love your sister and yell for her if you are going somewhere and want her to come along.  You give her a hug first thing in the morning.  You now say "awww" when you give hugs which is the sweetest sound. 

 Happy 19 months handsome little man.  We love you so much!
