14 months


Mastered skills that most kids can do:
      Eat with fingers - Oh yes. or else he would starve because he must do it himself
      empties containers of contents - oh yes. fills them, empties them. Fills them, empties them.
      imitates others - oh yes. He mocks my high pitched squeals on a regular basis

Emerging skills that half the kids can do:
      Toddles well - uh... like walk? then yes. He toddles very very well.
    initiates games - He does! Matt bounces logan on his legs and does a little song. Logan goes over to matts legs now and tries to do the song when he wants to be bounced.
       Points to one body part when asked- yes, his belly. He knows head and nose but he doesnt do it often when asked. He knows his belly
       Responds to instructions- he has started to over the last few weeks.He can go get a ball when asked, hugs the animals by name, come when called, now he kisses us when asked :)
   
Advanced skills that some can do:
      Uses a spoon or fork- no. I put the noodle on the fork and he eats it off, he also tries to stab the noodle but is unsuccessful.
      Matches lids with appropriate containers - he put the right pot lid on the pot the other day... but I dont normally have lids in need of a container
      pushes and pulls toys while walking - pull. no. push, yes. And drags things all over, including the kitchen chairs.
