18 Month Old Genius
by Michelle
Davis turned 18 months this week. At his well baby visit, he weighed in at 29 pounds 4 ounces (85th percentile). He is 34.5 inches tall (95th percentile) and his head circumference is a massive 50.5 cm (above the 95th percentile). She said it was because his brain is huge.
Davis also started taking swimming lessons this week. He has learned to kick and blow bubbles in the water. The first day of swim lessons, Davis was really excited about being in the pool with all the other students. The second day, he acted like he didn’t care one bit. He was terribly distracted and didn’t do any of the activities. He spent the entire time watching all the other kids. Well, he obviously is just an observant child, because this morning, in the bath tub, he laid flat on his belly, blew bubbles and kicked his legs. These are all the things he learned Thursday night, but had not yet put into practice. I have no idea what that says about his learning style or his personality. I am pretty sure it means he’s a genius!
