Ok, so I have fallen way behind in the posting of updates. Life with JP just doesn't leave much time anymore! Our newest addition will arrive thursday around 1 pm. We are scheduled for a csection so it should be pretty much on time.

JP is doing great. He never walks anywhere...he does a skipping motion when he walks, but most of the time he runs. He loves to be outside playing, and we still go to the park quite a bit. We also go to the Children's Discovery Museum where they have a traveling Clifford the Big Red Dog exhibit and a toddler/preschool playroojm called the Wonder Cabinet. It is quite a lot of fun, and there are usually several kids from our playgroup there that he knows.

He still doesn't talk much, but he really doesn't need to since we respond to his gestures, signs, and "uh-uh" sounds. He has quite a few baby signs---milk, raisin, cereal, banana, baby, boo-boo, more, all done, etc. Most of his signs relate to food! He is a pretty good eater, he loves fruits and veggies...he definately did not get his Mama's eating habits! He doesn't like fried mozzerella...where did I go wrong?

At his 18 month check up he was 31 1/2 inches tall and weighed 25 1/4 pounds. Pretty much average for his age, but his head circ. is still off the charts. Oh well, more room for his brains.

I am excited to see how he does with Trajan come thursday. It should be interesting. He really does quite well with his cousin Lincoln when we see him, so I think he willl be ok. I think he will just be a little too eager to share and that may cause some issues. So, think of JP on thursday when he becomes a big brother! (someone actually asked if he was going to be a big brother or big sister---I had a bard time keeping a straight face when I answered!)

Well, this post will have to satisfy everyone until after Trajan and I get home from the hospital and I can post new pictures of the 2 boys together!

Have a great week!

Jack, Elizabeth, JP and Trajan!
