Every milestone is important so I think I'll start sharing James' development with you! He's about 14.5 months, but to keep it simple next time and give monthly updates!
He is a very stable walker! Enjoys running around the condo, park, daycare, or anywhere. He can wave hi and bye. He says Mama, Baba, and Dada. However mostly Dada. He also says ball and door. We taught him ball and he learned door from daycare. James and his friends always hang out by the door which is not safe so the teachers are constantly telling them to move away from the door. Since he heard the word so often he started saying it too! Daycare has also taught him some baby sign language. He knows how to sign 'all done' when he's finished his meal. Its essentially putting both hands up and waving them.
James can climb up on the couch, if we use cushions as a step stool, and he knows how to safely get off the couch by himself. He can open every cabinet and tries to empty the contents! He plays peek-a-boo with us by hiding himself under a blanket, etc. He enjoys being chased or chasing us! If asked he will bring us an object that he knows. If he really wants to keep it he places it in our hands and quickly pulls it back. Lol! He gives kisses to me and rarely to Adit. Lol, DaDa doesn't like that too much, but I think it's funny! He can pick up objects with ease by squatting and getting them. He can scribble with a crayon, especially on the bathtub! He loves going up and down steps and today learned how to climb up steps on his own!
James also loves music. His favorite songs are the Beaver Song, Row Your Boat, Good Morning Train, Zoom Zoom, Party Rock Anthem, and Fireworks (Katy Perry). He shows his appreciation by dancing! His moves include shaking his bum and moving up and down. His new move is clapping and stomping his feet like the running man, haha! I'll try to post a video soon.
James likes to feed himself and has good hand eye coordination. Most of the food gets in. He also wants to use utensils so we assist him with that. He doesn't like brushing his teeth unless we stick out our tongues and make funny faces! He enjoys bath time and sits in the tub now, although it's not a milestone it's a big accomplishment providing relief for our backs!
James also knows how to throw balls or other objects. He's fascinated with watching them bounce or roll. This keeps him entertained for awhile. He also learned that he needs to bend his head when under tables or chairs so he no longer gets bumps. Lastly he loves books and enjoys turning pages.
I'm sure I missed some of his development but that's all I can remember today, more will come at 15 months!
So tell us what major accomplishments your little one has mastered! Don't forget to include their age when sharing!
Happy reading!
