Wade is 18 Months Old!!

A year and a half and such a big boy!!

At 18 months some of Wade's favorites are outside, going for walks, running, baths, doing what the big kids are doing, and snacks.

Wade has not really started talking yet. He can say words but does not really use them to communicate which is really frustrating. I think he is really being stubborn. I know he understands us when we talk to him. He will say words a few times and then refuse to say them anymore. I know he will come around....just wish he would hurry.



Meal times can be a real challenge. He only eats a few things. He eats macaroni and cheese, peanut butter and honey sandwiches, grapes, mandarin oranges, strawberries, apples, cereal bars, waffles, goldfish, graham crackers, cookies, and about any other sugary treat....no veggies. That is it. I feel like he eats an awful diet but at least he does eat what he likes. I was sneaking peas in the macaroni but he caught on to that pretty quick.



The last few months have been pretty tough. Wade has had diarrhea for a couple of months now. He is still on medicine to get rid of his c diff. We are really hoping this new medicine will work. Wade hates to have his diaper changed. This makes for a difficult time changing multiple dirty diapers a day for sure. He does a lot of screaming partially because he is mad but I think sometimes his stomach is just hurting. His little temper has really come out this past few months too. Everything they say about redheads we have found to be true.




Getting pictures of Wade is pretty hard these days. He is constantly on the move and refuses to look at the camera. I did not really get a good picture of him smiling...maybe I will get lucky soon.

What a cute little boy and sure looks healthy. He will talk and then it will be a constant "why".

Baby Wade sure is growing! Always fun to read about where he is at in development. He will talk though in time and then you won't get him to stop. :) You might start trying some baby sign language. It has helped some of my friends with frustration. He is going to be 2 before we know it :)
