Brecken {20 Months Old}

Brecken is 20 months old.  As in 4 months from his 2nd birthday.  This is crazy stuff!

We have been busy getting Chesney to and from school and catching as much time outside as we can before it cools down.  Here are a few other things you have done over the past month:

Played some golf.

 Pushed your dump truck around.

 Celebrated Allie and Ryan's birthdays where you got these sweet monster glasses.

Reading Dinosaur Dig with Chesney.

Eating your food without utensils. This too falls into the "Chesney never did that" category.

Brecken's 20 month stats:

• Weight: 19.8 lbs
• Length:  31.5 inches
• Clothes: You are wearing 6-12 month bottoms but will need to move up to the 12-18 size in pants for length very soon and 12-18 month shirts. You are wearing your 12 and 18 month sleepers (the arms are getting short on the 12 month sleepers). 
• Shoes: You wear a size 4 shoe.
• Diapers: Cloth diapers with Pampers (size 3) at night.  You go on the potty 2-3 times a day and are usually dry after naps.
• Food: You have gotten better about eating some food at all meals. You wake up hungry every morning.  You do not want to play when you wake up, you want to eat. You are drinking whole milk and love water.
• Development:  You love to read books; your favorite is Richard Scarry's Cars and Trucks and Things that Go (or Goldbug as we know it).  You can find Goldbug on every page. You are really starting to pick up more words but you understand an incredible amount. You like to get in the middle of whatever Chesney is playing which can get her worked up at times. You love diggers.  You have a favorite digger book that we read every night.
• Words: You finally say "momma".  I have wait nearly 20 glorious months for this and I love it! You are talking more and more but like to squeal too. 
• Teeth: No new teeth this month.
• Sleep:  You go to bed around 7:00 pm and wake up at 7 am. We have to get you up at 7 everyday now because we have to get Chesney to school.  No more sleeping in for you.  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: You love golf!  Daddy bought a set of kid's golf clubs and you love to swing them.  You have a left handed swing with quite a bit of power behind it.  You are the sweetest little and have become shy around people you don't know.  You will hide behind mommy or daddy or bury your head in my shoulder if some tries to talk to you.  I think you miss your sister while she is at school because you usually go give her a hug as soon as she comes out of her classroom.

Brecken you are a little ball of energy and love.  Happy 20 months little guy!  Love you!
