Reggie is 1.75

Reggie is 21 months old! He is a 33lb. ball of energy. Everything he does is with gusto!

In the past few months, he has definitely moved from being "the baby" to being one of the trio. His expressive and receptive language has been explosive. He often speaks in 3-4 word sentences. He does not let his gross motor skills slow him down in the slightest, and while he is constantly on high-speed tumbling and crashing into things, he is so tough it barely phases him. His fine motor skills are emerging - he feeds himself with a fork or spoon and has started to show interest in coloring and play dough. In the above picture, he is eating a very sticky rice crispie bar.

One of Reggie's favorite things to do is go to the "a-nound" [playground] and go on the "wing" [swing] and "side" [slide].

Last week, he figured out how to undress himself. He found it so amusing, he would take his pants off wherever we happened to be when the urge struck him! (And then laugh hysterically at my embarrassment!) One of the cutest things he says right now is "more lunch please" whenever he wants more of any kind of food, at any meal, and then he hands me his plate. Reggie loves to eat his way right through our grocery budget.
Reggie often sings to himself throughout the day. He catches onto songs very quickly. He also likes to watch Yo Gabba Gabba! and The Wiggles. Everything that is green or resembles a football is "packers" and Reggie is also fascinated with animals, in particular, the cow.


What a fun age - what a fun little boy!
