20 Months

Aaron is 20 months old today! He is so fun! I love to play with him and he still loves to play with me. I get so much enjoyment out of my days with him.

Aaron is very sweet and very obedient. He loves to show you that he knows how to do what you asked him to do. He gives lots of hugs and kisses and loves to make you smile.

He loves books. He loves to 'read' by himself and he loves to be read to. He still loves rocks and leaves and general outside play the most.

He repeats everything we say. He is also adding more words that he says on his own. If he sees something he knows the word for (airplane, ball, dog) watch out! He will point to the item and say the word repeatedly. The words that he says on his own, in context, are: Mama, Daddy, Papa, Bye, Book, Bowl, Baby, Ball, Dog, No, Milk, Rock, Walk, Knife, Cat, Night, Blanket, Mower, Wet, Mess, Hot, Mimi, More, Medicine, Eat, Amen, Elmo, Berries, Bagel, Airplane

He is still very tall, but he's starting to average out now if his clothes size is any indication. He can still wear most of his 18 month shorts and pants. I am buying 24 month pants for the Winter and most of those work well. He is not in 2T pants yet. Even with his height, his waist is so small that the pants sag and he trips over them. He is wearing all of his 24 month shirts with no problem. I am buying 2T shirts for the Winter, though. They are a little big and I have to roll up the sleeves, but they give him room for growth. He's wearing anywhere from a 7 to an 8 in shoes depending on the type. He does have big feet. That has not changed. He is still in Size 4 diapers during the day and Size 5 in his overnight diapers.
