18 months?! Oops! I missed 17 months!

Well, my mom says sorry for not telling you about when I was 17 months old, but life has been a blur right now.  I am now 1 1/2 and that makes it half way to 2!  I had to go visit Dr. Spike yesterday for what they call a "well-check".  It was NOT well with me.  You know they treated me nice and all, but they used some weird tools to listen to my tummy and look into my eyes and ears.  Dr. Spike talked to my mommy too and told her not to listen to my tantrum nonsense (but she already knows that).  Okay, so you say that is not too bad...but wait until you hear this....the nice girl in white, they called her a nurse, came in at the very end and gave me these two things call shots...one in each leg.  It hurt so BAD!  I SCREAMED until my mommy picked me up and rub the owies!  Mommy seems to make things all better.  Well, so the nitty gritty of the Dr. appointment is that I'm right on track developmentally, I got 2 shots, and I'm a tall guy.  Here's my stats:
Weight:  26 lbs, 51st percentile
Height:  33 inches, 70th percentile

Here's also a list of new things about me, since my mom's too busy to post:

1.  I moved to my "big boy bed" when I was 17 1/2 months.
2.  I gave up my high chair at that time too.  My parents like it when I'm buckled in my booster, but I like to sit in a regular chair!
3.  I like to drink out of a "big boy" cup without a lid just like my sister too.  Mommy thinks it's messy, but I do okay.
4.  I don't eat ANY baby food anymore and haven't for a LONG time.
5.  I like to walk up and down stairs as long as I can use the railing.
6.  I tried swimming lessons, but didn't like to do what they tell me.  (I like to swim, but not listen to the teachers.)
7.  I am using some words including:  daddy, momma, more, done, Renner, up, on, help, please, yeah, nana, ball, choo-choo, vrooom, cheese.  I'm sure I'm forgetting something.  I copy what my parents and sister say too.
8.  I have started to say 2-word phrases too.  My first one was "help please".
9.  I LOVE to play peek-a-boo, get you, and this little piggy.
10.  My favorite toys are balls, cars, and trains.
11.  I still like to watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, but my new favorite is Bubble Guppies.
12.  I like to remind my family to pray at meal time and bed time.  I fold my hands together and say "ga".  Sometimes I make them pray more than once too.
13.  I like to go to the park and climb the slides.  I even go down the big ones!  The swings are just okay.
14.  I LOVE chocolate just like mommy.  My favorite food is probably mac n cheese, corn dogs, raspberries, and bananas.
15.  I have no lovies, but 2 favorite blankets instead....one my Grandma Bonnie made me and the other was a baby shower gift from my mommy's work friend, Monica.
16.  I like to figure things out...such as pulling cords out of outlets, turning on/off light switches, opening/closing doors, and pushing buttons.
17.  I'm starting to do puzzles, but still need help from someone.  When I get a piece in, then I clap and say "yeah"!
18.  I LOVE my new yard...more on that later.  I still am little and need to get some sleep!
