Making the decision to have a child - it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking outside your body.

Life at almost Two (Development 2 years old)

Hello there!

It’s been a while…so sorry, it’s really hard to jungle things with two babies, hmm more like a toddler and a baby.

Noah has been doing well. He’s been growing up really fast… Leaning a lot of new things and he is as active as he ever was. He is starting to say a lot of words and he will try and repeat what we say. It’s really and I’m very happy about that.

I’ll be honest here. I’m much more into the toddler Noah than  I was into the newborn Noah. I mean, Noah was an adorable newborn but to be able to communicate verbally with him, to know he understands my words and that he can reply to me is amazing. 

So anyway, a little bit about Noah. At around 20 months he started to become very interested by cars. Whenever he saw a car, he’d point it out. Now, at 22 months, his most important words are; car, truck, bus, “vion” (avion-plane), train, cop (helicopter) and boat. Anything that involved transportation actually. So he’s really into that…

Teething wise, it seems like all of his teeth are coming out at once. Actually, most of them ARE out right now but it all started at 19 months, his top cuspid started coming out, then a week later, his bottom cuspids. His first molars (all of them) came out at about 20 months and his molars at about 21 months. At 22 months he is having his laterals coming in. So he’s been fussy for a while but he’s doing pretty well now (teeth wise anyway).

Now let’s talk language, he’s saying words and he’s also starting to make connections between words. So, he’ll say “story-book” That’s pretty recent though. He will also start to differentiate articles. He will say “ the cat” if he’s referring to Soleil (our cat) but “a cat” if he sees a random cat in the street or in a book. He is also starting to sing to “The wheels on the bus” and “Old McDonald had a farm.”  It’s really cute.

Growing wise Noah is still tall and skinny. He likes to eat pasta, some chicken, pork, beef… Veggies aren't his favorite but he’ll eat them if it’s mixed with apple sauce. His favorite veggies would have to be carrots and his least favorite will be peas. He really doesn't like seafood but he will have fish. He’s not a big fan of sweets but cookies are always a win…

That’s about it for now. Everything else is great! Keep on growing baby boy!


We love you!!!!

Mom
