21 Months Old

Baby turns 21 months old this week.  We've hit a little rough patch with the sleeping.  I'm not sure why...he just tries to delay when it's bedtime or he listens to all his stories but then has some trouble settling down.  Maybe there is some extra brain development going on.  He's been learning words super fast these days and putting ideas and words together.  He can jump about an inch off the ground with both feet.  He can even take apart and put train tracks together.
I think Axl Rose had a similar look...
This past weekend, we went to the Aquarium by the Bay on the Embarcadero.  Baby CP enjoyed looking at some fish and especially liked touching the starfish.
I see you!
Let me at 'em!
My precious starfish.
Baby CP went to his first dental visit this week as required by his pediatrician.  Much to my surprise, Baby CP allowed the dental assistant to clean his teeth and brush flouride onto his teeth and then he let the dentist check for cavities and gingivitis.  I was a little annoyed because if Baby CP let's me brush his teeth (which is about 1 out of every 2 nights), he only gives me about 20 seconds to do so.  The dentist told us we had to pin him down to do it for his own health though...so that's what I do now...but I still have to work very fast.  I think last night (the second time I had to pin him down), Baby CP realized that it had to be done, so after his crying and my brushing, he said he wanted to sit on the bench with me and brush his own teeth.
