My baby is fifteen months old!
He doesn't really seem like a baby anymore, but I still treat him like one! He still loves to be rocked and snuggled and I am more than willing to oblige.
Here's his stats from his well check up today:
Weight: 23 lbs. 3 oz.
Height: 30.5 inches
Head Circumference: 18 3/4 inches
Food:
He loves to eat. Anything, anywhere, anytime. He's still not very good at eating with a fork or spoon. We give it to him every meal and I try to work with him some, but he usually gives up after a while and just eats with his hands. I am trying not to worry. I know he'll get it eventually. It is funny though because with Lucy I had a lot of time to sit down during meals and help her figure out the fork and spoon, and with Ian I haven't been able to give him the same amount of effort. Some of his favorite foods are bananas, blueberries, apples, and smoothies. And also anything that you are eating. :)
Motion:
He finally started walking at 14 mos and it's like he always knew how. He's starting to try to run more and it's funny because it's really just momentum and he normally ends up falling over at the end of it, but he thinks it's funny. He loves to climb on things, and try to do whatever big sister does.
He has this monkey blanket that he loves loves loves. Lucy never had a stuffed toy or blanket that she ever wanted, despite my trying to get her attached to something. Ian was given multiple stuffed toy blankie animals and for some reason this monkey is what he picked. Now Monkey has to go everywhere with him. We don't have to bring him along in the car, but if Ian is at the house and someone says "Monkey" he will immediately ask for it or go looking for him. He has to have it to go to sleep. I think it's adorable. I did order another monkey just to be safe in case Original Monkey goes missing or falls apart from being washed.
Ian is such a delight. I love him to pieces and I love having the privilege of being his mom and watching him become his own little person.
