Fifteen Months


Fifteen Months? Is this real? You need to slow down sweet boy!! We want to just enjoy every little minute with you, so don't grow so fast okay?

This month has been another wonderful whirlwind. Here are a few stats for your fifteenth month:

- You weigh 21 lb.12oz. (15%) and are 30.25" tall (25%) - you are growing so big!
- You wear a size 4 diaper, size 12-18 month clothing, and a size 5 shoe
- You are still sleeping great - almost every night is from 8 p.m. - 6:30 a.m., unless you are teething or have a cold. We have had a few nights that you just needed some extra love, but we will take it. :)
- Naptime is pretty regular with a short nap in the morning and a longer one hour nap in the afternoon
- You are still loving to eat - usually oatmeal for breakfast, blueberries any time of day, fruit, meatballs, and the Gerber meat sticks (gross) are your favorites
- You have been drinking milk a little more and seem to like it better this month!
- You can sign "more", "all done", and "eat" - Mommy needs to learn more signs to teach you!
- Books are still some of your favorite things. Llama Llama has returned as a favorite, along with Happy Valentine's Day Mouse! You try to convince us to read many, many books at bedtime - to prolong going to sleep. :)
- A new friend has emerged this month - your "sassy" or pacifier. I'm not sure where the affection for this little thing has come from, but I sure hope it is short lived.
- You have added the words oatmeal "oat-ma" and lots of others to your vocab this month, a really fun new trick is saying "Di-di-di-di" or ding-ding-ding for your firetruck. As in "Hurry hurry drive the firetruck, ding, ding, ding, ding ding!" (That's a song for those of you who don't know)
- You can now identify most of your body parts - eyes, ears, nose, mouth, belly, toes
- You still LOVE dogs - Doc and Daisy, Raider (Grammy and Pops' dog) and Pearl (Logan's dog)
- Elmo is one of your favorites! You call him "Melmo" and love to watch him on the iPad, iPhone or the TV. You definitely like to choose which Elmo video that you want and will quickly let us know if we have chosen the wrong one. :) It's good that you are a man who knows what he wants.
- You say "HOT" and run to the oven when it beeps
- Talking on the phone (and saying hello), playing with balls, and drawing and writing are some of your favorite activities. It is SO much fun to watch you grow!!
- Your teachers at school are some of your favorite people. You also love your little friends - Ellie Moss, Maddie, Jon Michael, Zach, Caitlyn, and Maddie!








I didn't get a good monthly picture this time, so I'll just have to use one of my others.... Happy 15 MONTHS!!
