15 month mirthday!


First off, my Aunt Heather wanted to see a picture of me eating at my new table so here I am from this morning eating my blueberries, waffle and milk. Also here is a video from this morning showing people what I like to do in the morning between 6:30 and 7:30 when I leave for baby school. Its a pretty action packed hour!


Here is a breakdown of my many accomplishments over the last 3 months:

Weight: About 23 pounds. I wear size 18month pants, 2T shirts and size 4 shoes

Skills:
Physically: I can walk well. I can throw balls and kick balls. I can use a spoon and a fork but still prefer using my hands. I can get in and out of a little chair.

Verbally: My best words are mama and ball. I still mostly grunt and try to mimic words people say but you wouldn't be able to recognize them as words yet.

Comprehension: Although I cant talk well I understand a lot. If you say we are going for a walk I will bring everyone their shoes, bring the dogs their collars and get into my stroller. If you say bring me a ball or book I will. If you tell me to drink I will. If you say time to brush your teeth I will go to the bathroom. If you say night-night I will wave bye to mommy or daddy and go to my room and sleep without any problem. I am also starting to learn my body parts. I know head, ears, mouth, tongue and tummy so far.

Likes: Outdoor play, looking at books and being read to, playing with Bosley, sleeping, opening and closing doors, playgrounds

Dislikes: I hate when someone takes away a toy I am playing with. I hate baths in a bathtub (however I love baths in the sink)

What is to come: Next week I am flying in another airplane! I am going to visit my nana and grandfather in Florida for 6 days with mommy. I can't wait to see them and play in the ocean. I still use a pacifier at night but mommy said after that trip she is going to start taking them away at night - we will see how that goes!

Dex looks so good sitting at his table. Makes my kids look like a pack of wild hyenas.
