I know, I know, we are WAY closer to 19 months than 18 months, sorry we've been so bad about posting. But, we're super busy these days,so the update is going to be unorganized and bullet points this month:
- Big event is that Luca gave up his binky at the beginning of the 18 month. yay big boy!
- He also started referring to himself as "Kuka" My mom (Popo) taught him to answer two questions--What's your name? ("Kuka!") and How old are you ("One!").
- He has also embraced colors, letters, and numbers. Pretty good at reliably naming colors, and can identify most of the numbers (0-9) and some letters (mostly vowels).
-Has gotten very good at putting together 2-3 words. Some of my favorite examples are: "Daddy's baby" "Mommy's baby" and "Luca baby". "Mama's good" "Daddy's good" and "Aiyi's good". He likes to label small things ("Tiny ball" "Tiny bubbles" "Tiny baby"). He is also obsessed with cars (Mama's car, Daddy's car, Aiyi's car).
- he seems to get the concept of "two"--he will tell us when he has two balls, or two pens, or the other day at the park he said to us "Two girls".
- He also seems to remember family really well. He now likes to look at pictures of Thamma and Popo, and Papu Kaku. He still remembers which of his books are from Thamma and will bring them to us and say "Thamma's book."
- yesterday, he picked my underwear up out of the laundry basket and told Agnish "Mama's diaper."
- made a pee pee on the potty this week!
I can't think of anything else for now, so maybe the 19 month update will be more successful! :)
