The Overall Staus into May

Kole will go into the month of May as a walker. He doesn't do it often right now, and doesn't go very far just yet. But, he does seem to enjoy standing by himself quite a bit. Some other status points:
*Wears 18-24 month clothes
*Size 4 diapers (nappies, for the Brits)
*He eats "2nd-foods" meats and vegetables, normally has two bowls of oatmeal cereal with a fruit mixed in, and still chasing it down with about 20 oz. of formula a day
*He snacks on little cruncy Cheeto-looking things, little fast-disolving crunchy snacks that he normally has when he sits down a the table with us at dinner - which is normally just off his meal schedule.
*He has four visable teeth (central Incisors), with two more coming in on top (Lateral Incisors)
*His bed time is 8pm, and he's normally awake by 7am. His naps usually fall around 10am and 3pm. Lately, his first naps rarely go beyond an hour, and his 2nd naps have frequently gone beyond 2 hours.
*The mattress of his crib has four notches, so to speak, for four different heights to be set at. There's about a foot difference between the highest and lowest setting. Obviously, we started on the highest. But as his reach to the top of the crib rails became easier, the mattress got lower. We are now on the lowest setting, and the next step after this is to get rid of the crib all together and move on to the big-boy bed.
*He never once took to a pacifier. The times when we tried it when he was just a few weeks and months old, he spit it out like it was a bad joke that there was nothing in the nipple.
*He crawls with lightning speed and frequently opens drawers and cabinets. We have safety latches on most of them, but there's still plenty of room for itty-bitty fingers to get smashed. We usually see some tears once a day from this. Or, he'll pull himself up underneath the table, and he's beginning to learn that wood doesn't have a lot of give. More tears. It's a slow learning process.
*He loves playing more physical now. If I lay on the floor, he'll try to crawl over me. When I grab his legs and hold him upside-down and flip him over on the floor, it gets a big giggle, and this hasn't got old yet.
*He likes throwing objects, admiring how far away it's been thrown, crawl after it, inspect and nibble on it, then throw it again. Repeat. He especially likes throwing things on the kitchen tile, where balls and objects have a little more slide on the floor.
*He's a genuinely happy, happy boy. He gets irritable when he's sleepy and hungry, and who doesn't, but otherwise he's a little ball of laughs who is growing very, very quickly.
