P is 15 months old. His visit to the doctor's office last week for his well-baby check revealed the following:
- He's 20 lbs, 7 ounces
- He's 30.25 inches tall
The doctor was also glad to hear how active he is, how he does not have the milk allergy that we thought he did at 12 months of age, and that his verbal skills are right where they should be. At this time, he can say:
- Please
- Thank You
- You're Welcome
- Bubble
- Mommy
- Daddy
- Banana
- Where's Nathan (kinda sorta)
- Dog
- Baba (bottle)
- Blueberry
P also LOVES to eat. Some of his favorites are:
- Bananas
- Blueberries
- Sausage
- Pasta
- Green Beans
- Grapes
- Mandarin Oranges
- Pineapple
- Grape Tomatoes
- Corn on the Cob
P also LOVES to play. He recently got his first set of Legos from Legoland at Downtown Disney. Todd likes to play with them after P goes to bed, so some mornings P wakes up to a new "Daddy Design." One day last week it was an "Air Stair" that they use at the airport to load passengers onto the planes. P also loves the slide that MeMe bought him. This can easily entertain him for a while. His play kitchen was recently removed from his playroom because he wasn't "playing nice" with it, but the fruit & veggie basket remains. His two favorites are corn and banana, and he eats the banana likes it's corn, and vice versa. He also loves his swing, ride around cars, pool, and water & sand table that was his birthday gift from Mommy & Daddy. And yesterday MeMe & PopPop bought him a music kit, complete with a drum, maracas, jingle bells, a tambourine & a few other goodies.
P also LOVES books. Not that he reads them, but he loves to hold them, carry them around, turn them upside down, and turn the pages. His two favorites are 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and Here Comes Peter Cottontail. I had to learn 'Twas the Night Before Christmas in school, so I am able to recite much of it to him.
P also LOVES Curious George. He has two CG videos that he watches while in the car. MeMe bought him a TV/DVD player for the car, so every morning he watches a CG clip on his way to school. He also has a CG bath book that he loves to "read" while he's in the bathtub. I even told Great-Grandmother that she should get him a CG monkey for Christmas.
P also LOVES LOVES LOVES the water. Whether it's the bathtub, the pool, the water & sand play table, the big swimming pool, or a pitcher filled with water & ice, P loves it all. We visited with my aunt in Orlando earlier this month, who just so happens to have a pool in the backyard. P played in the pool two, and sometimes three, times a day. I think he wishes we had one in our backyard. (Me too, P. Me too.) P will also climb into the bathtub whether or not there's water just so he can be near the water. One day two weeks ago he climbed in the tub while I was filling it with water. Only problem was that he had all his clothes on! That was lots of fun, huh P? And the cutest thing he does is this... he pretends there's ice in the "water pitcher" in the bathtub and he reaches in, grabs a handful, and then puts in in his mouth! He'll even share his "ice" with me. Too stinkin' cute!
I'm sure there's lots more to share about P and how he has blessed our lives and made our days loads more fun. But I think I'll save those for another post.
