Jace had his 16th month well check on Monday! He weighed in at 25lbs, 3 oz which puts him the 56th or 57th percentile...I can't remember for sure, hence the reason I decided to post about it...so its logged somewhere :-)
He is 32.5 inches tall, the 78th percentile for height and his head was 47cm, the 50th percentile. So basically he's an average sized boy...just a little tall! He's only gained 3.5 lbs since his 9 month appointment, I guess that's what mobility will do for you huh?!
We turned his crib into a full sized bed (we as in Anthony). It looks so nice! I would say that his bedroom and bathroom are the 2 best looking rooms in the house!
We are looking forward to Easter, I'll post lots of pics next week

Get to know Jace
I guess the weekend update is getting a little old, so I thought I'd write about the things you don't really talk about :-)
Jace likes to rub things under his nose. Mostly the tail of his "skin" but he uses it as a test to determine wheter or not he likes other stuffed animals. Usually if they aren't soft enough to rub under his nose, he's not interested.
I STILL rock him to sleep for his naps. I sometimes envision myself doing this when he's 5 and praying he will just grow out of it! But I don't rock him at night anymore so I guess its not so bad!
He loves the toilet. Flushing it, throwing tp in it, slamming the lid shut. Anything toilet.
He is currently obsessed with feeding Chula. I don't mind, except he literally does it 2-3 kibbles at a time so its like a 30 minute job. He's also really into unloading the dishwasher and he's actually pretty helpful at this one! I just have to be fast enough at putting things away becasue if it takes me more than 10 seconds to come grab a dish from his hand he usually just drops it on the floor.
Speaking of the floor, when he is full he throws any remaining food on his tray directly onto the floor. Luckily, he doesn't do this at restaurants...not sure if he does it at Margaret's house :-)
He loves his bad doggy. Oh and ever time I think I want to get rid of her, I think of how good of friends they are and Chula finds herself with another day at home. She's like a Marley dog I guess.
He has 5 million toys and his favorite thing to do is play outside in the rocks.
I'll think of some more for next time, but here are some pics from the week

My top 2 reasons for loving Tucson: 1.My Mom makes yummy food 2.My Mom feeds/entertains Jace while I eat yummy food!
We seem to be on a roll with the zoo so we tried the Tucson zoo on Saturday. Its perfect for a toddler because its not so huge and you can get alot closer to the animals. Jennifer almost got attacked by birds at least 3 times...why is it that the birds fly by the people that are scared of them?! There are quite a few different animals from the Phoenix zoo so it was nice to see some new animals. Jace seemed to do really well (perhaps because my Mom packed him all his favorite snacks). He saw almost all the animals except for the giant polar bear that swam right in front of him about 10 times! :-) I would say his favorite part of the zoo was the case that had a ton of cockroaches in it. Blegh!!
When we got home from Tucson we spent a couple hours pulling the millions of weeds we have from all this rain. Anthony is training Jace so hopefully he can handle it on his own by next spring and I am teaching him to load the dishwasher and vacuum :-) I am really enjoying this time where he likes to "help" me do things because something tells me this won't last too long. I'm guessing that by the time he becomes truly helpful he will lose interest!
