18 mo. Well Check


Liam had his 18 mo. well check yesterday. Dr. Evans said he is doing GREAT! She was impressed with his signing, and said he is developing right on track and doesn't show any delays from his prematurity. That was good to hear. He is still LARGE, 34 in. tall (87%), 34 lbs. (99%), and his head 20 in. (98%)!! BIG BOY! She wasn't concerned with his size, she said he has always been "big" and he is developing on track according to his previous check-ups, so good news there.
Although Liam will always be my "baby" he is now totally a toddler! I am so excited with everything he is learning and how fast he is able to pick things up these days. Because he is at an age where he is learning so quickly, I have decided to start taking a more structured approach to his learning. My friend recently introduced me to this blog. AMAZING!! If you have a toddler I highly recommend it!! I have been gathering supplies and getting ready to start our first "lesson" next week! I would LOVE for you to keep up with us on this journey, so I started a blog called La La Learning to highlight all the "learning" activities we will be doing! There are so many fun resources out there to help mom's teach their children not only about colors and numbers, but scriptures, virtues, and character lessons as well. I feel so blessed to be able to be here with Liam every day, these years are so precious and I know they will be gone in a blink. So, while I have him here, I hope to do my very best to raise him up to be a Godly man.

I have a link from a blog I read called Prayer of Hannah that you might want to take a look at. Some may be too old for Liam, but I know my niece loves one of the recommened sites on there Starfall (she's 4) and there are a lot of suggestions:
