When did that happen?<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s been a wild ride. Everyone talks about how hard it is when you have a newborn but I&#8217;ve decided that&#8217;s a crock. It&#8217;s hard regardless, it&#8217;s just different. Every stage in development has its challenges and just when you think you&#8217;ve got it under control, something new pops up.<\/p>\n<p>Juno is curious, bright-eyed and loves getting into everything. She&#8217;s definitely mastered walking and has recently starting climbing the stairs on her own (which is nice because she&#8217;s getting heavy!). She&#8217;s also very into books at the moment and loves being read to. Which makes me a little proud &#8211; another book worm in the family \ud83d\ude42 The only problem is that she also loves turning the pages and often won&#8217;t wait for the person reading. <\/p>\n<p>We only have two clear words &#8211; no and up &#8211; which is a slight concern. So the next logical step is for Juno to have a hearing test. She talks all the time but it&#8217;s all babbling (which does sound quite lovely because it&#8217;s very musical). Not panicking, just wanting to find out if anything is up. I figure the earlier an issue is discovered, the better the chances are of it being fixable. However, she communicates very clearly &#8211; especially when she says no and pushes whatever she doesn&#8217;t want away with her hand. I guess I would be a good deal more concerned if there was no non-verbal communication. <\/p>\n<p>So&#8230; at 18 months, Juno:<br \/>\n* weighs &#8211; 12.25kg<br \/>\n* height is &#8211; 81.5cm<br \/>\n* head circumference is &#8211; 50.5cm<br \/>\n* currently sporting a black eye from banging her head on a shelf.<\/p>\n<p>She&#8217;s gained two kilos in six months, grown 6cm and her head is so far off the chart it&#8217;s ridiculous. One day she&#8217;ll grow into her head.
