Progress Report!

I got a fun little surprise in my inbox this afternoon.  An update on all the things peanut's been up to lately.  According to his progress report done at 14 months he...

* He weighs 22.2 lbs.
* He is 29.5 inches tall
* He drinks both milk and soy milk and still takes formula as well
* He eats rice, but doesn't like chewing food (the Korea program coordinator has warned us that many children come home from Korea and can hardly chew!  That's because the foster moms mash everything up real good for them and they just aren't used to having to use their teeth.) :)
* He takes one bath a day and enjoys bath time
* He takes one 2 hour nap a day and sleeps from 9pm-6am
* He says "No" meaningfully (Ha!)
* He says "umma" (mama) meaningfully
* He shows understanding of words
* He gives toy to familiar adult spontaneously
* He displays tantrum behaviors
* He imitates adult behavior
* He plays ball cooperatively
* He turns pages in books
* He scribbles with a pen
* He puts 3 or more objects into a container
* He brings spoon to his mouth
* He holds and drinks from a cup with some spilling
* He finds hidden objects

When we get a report like this, there is a long list of developmentally appropriate behaviors with a box next to each one.  So, if he has mastered that skill/or displays that behavior then they just check the box.  That's what everything I listed is from.  There is also a section for written remarks.  Before now, we've never had any additional remarks on peanut's reports.  Here is what we learned from the remarks section of this progress report...

* He likes to have books read to him.
* He can stand on his own without being held or holding onto something
* If his hands are held, he can walk (this obviously means he's not walking independently yet...which is fine with me!  C hit the ground running at 10 months and hasn't slowed down since!  Take your time peanut.) ;)
* HE BABBLES A LOT AS HE LOOKS AT THE ADOPTIVE PARENTS' PHOTOS.  Love!!!!
