Trevor' is such a sweet baby! Now when we kiss him goodnight, and sometimes, just for no reason at all, he says "Lul Loo". (Love You). It just melts my heart every time!
We have officially started potty training! So far, so good. It seems like he will be fairly easy to train, since he likes sitting on the potty. We still have about 2 months until his 2nd Birthday, but the terrible 2's are already here! He is such a funny and sweet baby, but his wild side is coming out more and more each day. Cleaning house is almost impossible when it's just me & Trevor at home. Before I can get one room cleaned up, he has already destroyed another one! No complaints, though....I love that he is acting like every other 2 year old! The party planning is in progress :) I can't wait! This year his birthday party will be farm animal themed.
On another note, Trevor is completely released from ECI (developmental therapy). Yep...he is a graduate! I am very excited for the most part, and SO thankful that my little guy appears to have escaped the terrible effects surrounding his birth, and after. While most doctors will agree that preemies completely "catch up" with their peers by the age of 2, little research has been done on the long term effects of babies as early/small as Trevor was. This is mainly because not enough years have passed by since medical technology advanced enough to save those like Trevor. He is not, and will not be "completely" caught up by his 2nd birthday. He is still less advanced in language skills than most kids his age, and still a bit smaller than most. I wouldn't consider him terribly behind, because if I take away the 3.5 months to allow for his prematurity, that would put him at about 18 months, 2 weeks old. In my opinion, he looks and acts just like any other 18-19 month old :)
