Emerson is 18 months!
Emerson had his 18 month check up last week. He is still on the same growth curve and a very healthy boy. I am always worried that he's getting too skinny, maybe because I see so many images of chubby babies as the norm, but the Dr. said he's just right and doesn't need to be any chubbier. He has a vocabulary of over 60 words, not including animal sounds/impressions :) and the Dr. said he is definitely ahead of the game verbally. He made sure to point out that just because he is verbally advanced doesn't mean he will potty train any sooner or more easily hehe. We do have a potty for him and we try to have conversations about it every chance we get, but we probably won't really start trying until he's closer to two. Which means I'll have a newborn to feed and Scott will have to be the potty trainer hehe. These photos cover a several month span, but I made sure to keep them in chronological order. Gosh he changes so much in such a short period of time! :(
19 weeks 2 days- It's a boy!
We had our routine ultrasound today and everything looked great. He's a mover! I haven't felt him move as much as I did with Emerson and they said it is likely due to where he implanted- the placenta on the anterior portion of the uterus and the baby generally staying behind it. I feel really well. Aside from needing a little more sleep and being moody when I don't eat frequently enough I barely feel pregnant at all. I have gained 7lbs and a 5-10lb weight gain is ideal for this gestation so I am on track to gain the recommended amount of weight this time...so far :). We are still thinking about names...
