15 things about my 15 mo. old:
1. At Sage’s 15 mo. well child visit today the doctor and nurse both kept commenting on how tall she was. She landed in the 95th percentile at 32 1/2 in. for height!
2. She was 75th percentile for weight at 24 lbs. 5 oz. and her head was 45 cm – only 25% !? this one worries me a little.
3.She finally figured out how to open highlighters:
4. She got her first flu shot today. I wasn’t 100% sure about getting it, but she did get the flu last winter and it was pretty miserable, so I decided to go ahead with it this year.
5. She is a picky eater. Both in the sense that she really doesn’t eat a whole lot, amount wise, and she is picky about what she will eat period. I have to sneak any and all veggies into macaroni and cheese or something comparable. Doc said not to worry about it.
6. She LOVES books – she has lots of them and is always bringing them to us and asking us to “bead” them to her.
7. Two of her favorites are 5 Little Monsters (like 5 little monkeys), and a Noah’s Ark book.
8. When you ask her to dance it is hilarious!! video forthcoming
9. She is doing really well at MDO one day a week. I was a little worried at first, but she is having a great time and so am I!
10. She got the colorful “big girl” bedding and we are trying to decide what color to paint the walls right now.
11. She loves animals. In books, in Baby Einstein movies, and sometimes in real life…unless they are too big and coming towards her.
12.She has turned into a chatter box, saying things like hi, bye, mama, dada, papa, nana, happy, no, tree, eye, ear, “nee” for nose and knee, door, baby, bee, “peas” for please, “ba” for ball, as well as making lots of animal sounds – sheep, cow, cat, mouse, owl, dog, elephant, snake, monkey, and chicken. A lot of these she is just been learning in the past couple weeks, it’s hard to keep up. It is so amazing to see her learning so much and soaking in everything around her.
13. She has been randomly doing the sign for daddy(which I didn’t teacher her – i think she learned it at wee school) and saying dada a lot lately – she loves her daddy!
14. She knows no stranger – she is always trying to tell random people hi and bye when we are out shopping.
15. She loves, loves, loves to be outdoors. I think she would spend all day outside if we’d let her. She always grabs my hand and pulls me toward the door to go out. Speaking of outdoors – we did get a few good shots at the Arboretum this past Monday:
