15 Months

Oh My! I'm 15 months already?!? Yup! I sure am!
Isn't it SUPER FUN!

As of May 15 - I am 15 Months Old! Is that a golden birthday? What have I been up to these days? Well - let me fill you in!

- Size 3 diapers

- Size 12-18 mo clothes

- I'm fully walking like a big girl now. I occasionally try to run...it's sorta funny :)

-Today I attempted jumping. My feet don't leave the ground, but I pop up on my toes a little bit. I learned "jumping" from my big brother! I pretty much like to copy whatever he does.

- I am pretty spunky. I let you know when something doesn't sit well with me.

- I'm letting go of always wanting my Mommy. Daddy loves it b/c quite often I want to go to him instead now :) and I even like going to my grandparents, aunts and sometimes uncles :)

- I love to play with my brother...and pester him too. I guess it's not nice to get real close and hit him in the face cuz I get put in my crib when I do it. You know - if he doesn't want me to hit him - he shouldn't put his face so close to me (or my hand). A quick little swat is just SOOOOO irresistible.

- I still sleep w/ 2 nuks. One in my mouth and one in my hand.

- Animal noises I know...Woof woof is for puppy, ba is for sheep, ah ah is monkey, arrr = lion and bear

- Words = Mommy, Daddy, more, no, yah, cheese, pretty, baby, uh-oh, all-done, ball, kitty, thank you...I have more too -I just don't remember right now

- I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE it outside. I LOVE the sandbox, I love slides, I can ride Grant's ride on toys (but if it involves pushing with your feet I generally tend to go backwards)

- Have 4 top teeth, 2 bottom teeth and my first 4 molars way in the back. Teething isn't fun - and we may be entering another phase, but nothing is showing through yet

I really like to put items in and out of things. Grass inside my cup...kept me very busy!

Ice cream with my OWN spoon

I just dumped a bucket of water on myself. Oh boy...lucky it was warm out :)

So I didn't like my 15 mo appt very well. Just walking in the room made me burst into tears. I weighed 20lbs 4oz which is the 20th percentile...right on track with past months. When I was measured however I was 31 inches - which puts me at 60th percentile on the charts. My Dr doesn't think that was a very accurate measurement (well - I was moving about just slightly while I cried) because that would mean I'm in the 60th percentile for height...which is much higher than in the past. So - we'll skip that one for this time :) My head is about 25th percentile - so I'm in good shape!

Waiting for the Dr to come in - I got a bit more comfortable in the room and started to "jump"

Grant had fun too...

Then...this nurse came back to give me shots. That was just plain mean! I knew it was coming when she walked in the door. I don't know why she was laughing :)

One down...one to go...they really hurt a lot - especially the one I am getting in this picture

But hey - I got this cool sticker and I guess those shots will help me not get sick...that's what Mommy and Daddy tell me anyway. Whatever - I just don't want to go back there any time soon!
