We did receive several offers, so thank you to all of the bidders! It's nice to know that little guy is so dearly loved. Quite honestly, Weston is just too stinking cute to sell. We'd miss him. Even in the midst of a power tantrum....he's cute. In the middle of the night when he's angry and disoriented and nothing will satisfy him...he's cute. When he fills his diaper and then runs to a back corner of the house to hide (leaving a trail of stink behind him)...he's cute. When he partially chews his food and then spits it out on the floor for us to find hours later...he's cute. As he stands at the top of the stairs with a twinkle in his eye, pretends he's going to step downward, then laughs hysterically as mama or daddy starts to panic...he's cute. And seeing him mimic every last thing his big brother does (EVERY. LAST. THING.)...well, that just makes our hearts melt.
Weston passed his 18 month checkup with flying colors on Monday. His doctor told us this kid might end up surprising us - Weston may very well end up being our mellow child that follows the rules. Ha ha...that's funny! I told Dr. Bunkers to be sure that gets documented in Weston's chart so 16 years from now we can look back and laugh over just how wrong he was with that prediction. I should have bet something on it, like a free flu shot or a year supply of band-aids.
Anyway, the little blonde monkey stands 34 inches tall (91st %ile) and weighs just over 26 pounds (64th %ile). I didn't catch his head circumference because there was a lot of drama involved (he totally spazzed a the nurse as she attempted to measure his noggin). By comparison, his "older" cousin Vivian is 24 pounds and 31 inches. Just a couple of munchkins!
Here's to you, Westy! We love you and will keep you forever and ever and ever. Promise.

I'm relieved you're keeping Westy after all. We're happy to rent him now and then, and I'm sure you'll get other renters signed up, too. I don't think the nurse would've gotten an accurate head circumference measurement anyway, with all that poufy hair! Kisses and hugs to that little stinker!
I had not heard about how he baits you by standing at the top of the stairs. That's great! Very clever little boy!
Teach him some useful things like lawn mowing, and then I'll rent him.
