16 Months

Our little Lucan bear is 16 months old.

He has 8 teeth and just cut three molars so 11 in all. 

He has a new love of books especially this one called Boats Go.

He has another fever after having an ear infection two weeks ago followed by a skin rash that was a reaction from the Amoxicillin for the ear infection. 

So needless to say, he's been craaaannnnkkkyyy. 

But tonight after the Motrin kicked in, he was so happy. He's started trying to babble and has just started pointing at things. No walking yet. He's following in his siblings' footsteps (no pun intended) he's taking his time learning how to walk. Currently he's enjoying cruising around furniture and has recently started letting go and standing for a hot second before sitting down.

Walking!!!! (A Belated Update)

I know I haven't blogged in a while. Sorry. But just in case anyone was worried...our little man is walking! The catalyst was a trip to NJ the first weekend of Feb. for E's grandmom's 90th birthday party. While we were there, FJ took advantage of all the space and just took off with his walking. He had shown more interest in it in the days leading up to the trip so I guess the extra space was just what he needed. Since we have returned he has been walking about 90% of the time. He only crawls when he is super tired or when he wants to get somewhere super fast. But he's really fast with walking so he chooses that mode of transportation instead. Phew! We are thrilled and very happy for our little guy. Thanking God for this wonderful milestone.
