Max 27 Month Update

Max is such a gentle little soul who loves to give kisses and hugs and is very sweet. He is still not talking and only has approximately 14 words he can say. They are:

Mamma
Dadda
Nanny
Baby
Boy
Bottle
Please
Car
Bath
Aqua
Bubbles
Yes
No
Kakka


There might be a few more but these are the ones I hear most often. We got him evaluated and put him in speech therapy which turned out to be too expensive so now we are waiting on Birth to Three to come back and evaluate him again. He had his hearing checked out and everything was fine. He starts school in September so we would like him to be able to talk by then.

Max was potty trained before he got this awful stomach flu that made him vomit for two weeks straight to the point where he had to go to the hospital. We all got it but Jake who escaped unscathed. Ever since then Max wants nothing to do with his potty and so we have regressed back to using diapers. I will give it one more month before we give it a go again.

Max just loves to play and explore. He loves to draw and work on puzzles or play wiht play dough. He still weighs around 26.5 pounds, which we are happy about since he lost quite a bit of weight when he was sick. He still likes Thomas but has moved on to Toy Story and other DVDs. His bedtime is still 7pm but we have just reduced his nap times by an hour so he goes down at night instead of rolling around for hours. He is having Soy milk since Steve and i don't like our kids having Dairy. We will be doing the same with Jake. He loves these Soy ice cream sandwiches we give him for dessert and is still a very good eater. The older Jake gets the more they play together which is such a wonderful thing to watch!
