Arthur: 19 Months

A full month back home which meant lots of baby activities and lots of enjoying the sunshine.

Likes: Swings, slides, running, animal crackers, his babies, Daniel Tiger

Dislikes**:** Sleeping in his crib, leaving the park, traffic, podcasts instead of music in the car.

Sleeping: Ugh! We have hit the dreaded 18 month sleep regression one month late. He is now waking up every morning at around 2am by screaming bloody murder. He then proceeds to scream and scream and not go back to sleep. We’ve allowed him into our bed a few times, but really trying to not make that a habit. It’s so hard right now. We’re going to attempt to sleep train again.

Eating: All the things! Some days he doesn’t eat much in terms of amount, but he still has a varied diet. His current new favorite is calzones with pepperoni and mushrooms. And of course he loves getting the occasional treat of apple juice.

Playing: We’re seeing more and interaction with other kids and adults. Currently Arthur loves playing trains, cars, and trucks.

**Schedule:**Our usual activities like the museum, preschool, and park playdates happen weekly. We’re attempting to meet more Castro Valley families but it’s not going very well so far.
