Speechless

Michael had his big 1-year appointment today, and the doctor was very pleased! She liked that he was cruising, clapping, and climbing. The only "red" flag for him? The fact that he's not saying any words yet... Let's just say he is the opposite of his big sister, Chatty Katty. Combine his motor skills with her communication ones, and we might have actually had a kid hitting his/her developmental milestones on time. Oh well, we guess we'll actually have to talk to Michael now. As for his measurements: he is 22 lbs. 12 oz. (40th percentile) and 30.5 inches (74th). His exercise regimen must be burning those calories!

Welcome to the no talking kid club. We are not only members, we are the presidents.

As I'm sure you know by now all kids develop at their own pace. Jack was also a late talker. At the time, as first time parents, we were concerned. My mom, on the other hand, told us not to worry, she said as soon as they start talking they never shut up! We are often reminded of her warning as Jack is talking our ear off!
