15 Months

Oh how much you're changing every month!? Where do I start?
I thought I'd make a list of things you love, like and dislike.

You want attention all the time. That makes it way harder to try and get dinner ready or do anything else. You start to pull on my pants and step on my feet wanting me to pick you up while I am in the kitchen. Not sure what happened to all your independence that you had before.
You understand us! We ask you to bring your doll to us or a book, or a ball and you start looking for it and sure enough you bring it right over.
You give us kisses... usually we ask for kisses and if you're in a good mood you'll walk right up to our face and give us one.
You love playing with our phones, pushing buttons, and you pretend to answer and talk on it too. It's one thing that I can give you to make you stop crying or keep you entertained while I have to get something done.
You hate getting your nails clipped.
You love going outside, in fact when I close the back yard door, you get really upset sometimes.
You love parks and going on the swings & slides.
You love touching flowers.
You love cheese, not Provolone though.
You love pasta.
You love plain Mazoni yogurt that my mom makes for you. Sometimes I try to trick you and put veggies or meat in there and then you spit it out.
You don't like meat very much... at least not lately.
You love baths. You've learned how to get up while in your little tub, so every time daddy tries to dump water to rinse your shampooed hair, you try to escape out of the tub.
You don't have much patience in the morning to get your milk, you expect it as soon as you get on our bed.
You love books, you bring them over to us to read all the time.
You don't like veggies very much.
You don't like having your teeth brushed at all.
You love being around people and other babies/kids.
You love corn - the only vegetable you'll actually willingly eat... although I've discovered that it doesn't get digested very well, so I sort of stopped giving it to you as much.
You're not very good at going to sleep anywhere except for your crib. You have pretty much eliminated your 2nd nap... unless you get really tuckered out and it's still early enough to get one in. 50% of the time you only nap once.
You point at everything and say "daddy".
You say "mama" in a whiny sad voice when something bothers you.
You hear dogs outside and you immediately start looking for them and saying "woof, woof".
You love dogs, and cats too.
You love pointing at things outside... like birds.
You love music and dancing.
You love strumming daddy's guitar.
You love to laugh.
You love to pull all the DVDs out of the DVD rack.
You love giving hugs and kisses to the baby bear, and then hand it off to us to do the same thing.
You love to open cabinets and get things out of them.
You love to run away after you get in trouble and waive your arms up in the air... like you just don't care! haha
You love swings and slides.
You love playing with balls - baseballs, footballs, regular balls, any kind of ball. You learned pretty quickly how to kick and push a ball too. Here is a picture of you with one at the park.


Well that just about sums it up for 15 months!
Here are your stats. The doctor doesn't seem concerned with your eating habits, and said that you are following a nice growth curve just on the smaller side.
Height: 31 inches - 69%
Weight: 20 lbs 10 oz - 17%
Head circ: 17.25 - 6%
