Gavin is now 2 1/2 - in 6 months he will be 3! That just seems so crazy to think my little baby boy will be 3 on his next birthday. He is growing up WAY TOO FAST! I haven't done a milestones update in awhile so here it goes...
At 2 1/2 - Gavin Eugene is...
*Around 30-32lbs, not sure since he hasn't been officially weighed since his 2 year check up.
*Over 3 feet tall
*I can't even list the words he is saying - he is so advanced in his speech! You can pretty much carry on a conversation with him about anything. He forms sentences all the time...sometimes I forget that he is still only 2 1/2! He can repeat almost anything (which is good and bad...I really need to watch my mouth sometimes!)
*Loves to eat - I can already tell we are going to go broke when he gets close to his teenage years. He eats 3 big meals a day and is constantly snacking in between each meal.
*Still takes one nap a day, sometimes we have a day where he won't nap at all but he will usually take at least an hour nap, if not two hours.
*Goes to bed between 7:30-8:30, depending on if he napped earlier in the day or not. Sleeps through the night but still is my early riser, gets up between 5:30-6:30 most days. Every once in awhile we get lucky and he'll sleep in until 7, but not very often.
*He still has never tried to climb out of his crib...so for now, he is still sleeping in it! Eventually we will convert it to a toddler bed but I figure it's not worth the fight until the crib isn't working.
*Loves to sing - his favorite right now is Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, along with theme songs from some of his favorite shows, he is always humming along or talking. Never a silent moment from him!
*Can count 1-5 consistently and sometimes can go higher but usually skips a few in between. "one...two...three...four...five....eight...nine....seven!" - and we are slowly working on the alphabet. Every once in awhile he will say A-E but usually gets confused and starts saying numbers after that.
*Haven't officially started potty training. He is getting so close to being "ready", but just isn't quite there yet. Or maybe I'm not ready for my "baby" to be out of diapers. Not sure which one it is... :)
*Says "I love you" to me and Daddy all the time
*Very very strong willed little boy. When he wants something he sure tries everything in his power to get it. Doesn't give up easily or without a good fight! Definitely stubborn, no clue where he gets that from! Ha!
