71 Weeks

Xander is 71 weeks old! I know this because I have received weekly emails since his birth updating me how old he is and what kids his age are typically like. The one from this week talked about mimicking adults. This is so cute! I returned home from working out and I was showing Paul some plyometric moves from class and Xander started doing squats and lunges all across the room!

Some of Xander's favorite words this week: Saying balloon and signing "milk," which he knows means directly from his mommy and indirectly via a bottle. I caught him trying to sign "poopiter" the other night, but he's still working on that one. Paul thought he said "down" a lot the other day, but that, too, is a work in progress. Things are going really well. Xander is playing, coloring, talking, walking, and eating a ton! He keeps us busy and is so much fun!
