This Saturday Jackson Floyd turned eighteen months, one and half year old! It's shocking to me that he has gone from my teeny tiny baby to a full blown toddler! I can't believe that a half a year has gone by since we celebrated his first birthday and how much he has changed since that day. Here is the little guy on his half birthday...
He went for his eighteen month check up on Monday and here are his stats, 24.8 pounds (56%) and 32 inches tall (35%). He only had to get one shot this check up and he took it like a champ barely even a tear, it was a good check up and our little bear is doing great! Here are some of the things Jackson is doing at 18 months...
- Talking, Talking Talking - I'd say he has around 30 words right now, sometimes we won't hear a word for days but he knows them. Let's see here are some of them, Mama, Dada, NaNaNan (Nanny), PawPaw, Oney (Honey), Hobby, WaWa (Water), Boat, No (one of his favorites unfortunately), ByeBye, Hi, Oh No, Alright, Milk, Nack ( Snack), Bacon, Abi, Trigger, Dog, Cat, Car, Truck, Cookie, Duck, Go, Chair, Choo Choo and I am sure there are many more I am forgetting right now. He can also make several animal sounds like, Cow, Duck, Sheep, Turkey, Dog, Horse, Lion, Elephant and many more. He really has become quite the talker.
This kid always has something to say
- Climbing - Oh this boy loves to climb, on the couch, ottoman, table, highchair, you name it he wants to climb it, it's really quite dangerous but he doesn't seem to care.
The boy loves to climb
- Running - Everywhere this boy goes he wants to run, it's led to a lot of cuts and bruises along the way but he is learning.
- Playing Outside - He favorite activity right now is playing at the playground, he could spend hours there if I let him. He gets very upset if we don't stop at the playground when he sees it.
- Eating - This kid has become like a bottomless pit lately, it seems like he just keeps shoveling the food into his mouth. He is a growing boy that's for sure!
- Being Silly - He is such a goof ball always cracking us up!
- Sleeping - He is a good sleeper, goes to bed at 7:30 and naps at 1:30 for 2-3 hours. Our only complaint in that department he gets up pretty early usually ready to go by 7:00 at the latest.
He often likes to sleep with his dog on his head
- Bath time - He still loves bath time and playing in the water. Whenever we ask if he is ready for a bath he goes running towards the bath room and starts taking off his clothes.
He loves being in the water and playing with his toys!
- Hugs and Kisses - He is still our sweet little boy and gives out lots of hugs and kisses. He still likes to do the head kiss but he has also added in Eskimo kisses, he usually gives Adam and I a couple before bed time.

- Trigger - He loves his dog Trigger, they are best friends and love playing together
Trigger isn't always so sure about their relationship, Jackson is always trying to capture him and give him hugs
- Reading - He loves to look a books and loves it when we read to him, we read at least one book a night before bed time.
