Everett 2, Reeve 4 months

Everett's 2 year stats:

Weight: 30 pounds - 75th percentile
Height 37-1/2 inches - 100+ percentile. He is taller than the charts

In comparison, Trinity stats at 2 years:
Weight: 30lbs, Height 36inches


Reeve 4 month stats:
Weight: 17lbs, 3 oz. - 80th percentile
Height: 27.2 inches - 97th percentile

Kids in Comparison:
Trinity stats at 4 months: 16lb. 7 oz. Height 25-3/4 inches
Everett at 4 months: 16lb., 13 oz., 26-1/2 inches.


Looks like Reeve is the tallest and heaviest.

What the boys are up to:

Reeve has grown up a lot in the last 2 months.

He smiles and laughs all the time.
He crosses his ankles when he is happy, just like Everett does.
He loves to sleep on his left side, just like Trinity did.
He is getting better at sleeping but still wakes up twice a night on average to eat. Sleep training appears to be in our near future.
His hair is looking more blond than the original dark brown.
He is wearing 6-9 month clothes.
He still is unable to be calm without being held. I am hoping he gets out of that soon.
He is a great eater and has recently enjoyed the taste of rice cereal.
He is thinking about rolling over soon.
He gnaws on his hands looking for food.
He has found his feet and thinks his hands are the coolest things to look at.


Everett at 2 years:

I last made a list of Everett's interests at 18 months. I do not think anything on that list is the same except that he still refuses to eat meat.
He started talking about 4-5 weeks ago and hasn't stopped. I joke that his brain finally kicked in. He has more words then I can count and has several 2-3 word-ers that he puts together. Here are some of his favorites:

AIRPLANE!!!!! Sounds like Aaaaaaa-Da!
Geese
I'm Gonna Get You!
Where is Daddy? Where Daddy Go? Daddy? Daddy Work? Daddy Bye-bye?
Coat
Outside
Yummies
Why? why? why?
Elephant, giraffe, lion, roar.
Horsies. Horsie bye-bye! (we have horses where we live)
Truck (although it sounds like the F word)
BUS!!!!!
Reeve
Paci (sounds like Faci)
why? why? why? why? why mama? why?
HOT!
Sharp!
Noooooo.
Ya.
O-kayyyy
Did I mention why?

B? Which menas "what is this?" "how do you say this?"
Doogie Show: which is America's Funniest Home Videos. It has become a family nighttime tradition around here.

He has become very attached to his blue blankie.

When he is making a decision he says "uummmmmmm?"
He can unzip his coat and take it off in a second especially in the cold weather. grrrr!
He is busy all day long and never stops moving.
He jumps in a full belly flop on top of you if you are laying on your back. floor, couch, bed, it doesn't matter. And, it hurts.
He fears very little.
He listens very little. ;)
He doesn't play with toys much. He still loves sharp objects, rocks, mud..you know, boy stuff.
He will still do anything to make you laugh. I anticipate a phone call from his principal the first day of school because he mooned the class.
He is difficult to keep up yet such a joy to have around.
