15 Months

I can't believe my little boy has turned 15 months. I feel like each day he learns how to do something new and becomes a little more dependent.
 
At the doctor, he weighed in the 48% at 24 lbs., and his height was in the 50% at 31in. He wears 12 month shorts and mostly 18 month shirts with a few 12 month here and there. He does not enjoy getting dressed and usually gives a shout as his shirt goes over his head. He eats his three main meals, has a snack in the afternoon, and then snacks as needed! He drinks milk as soon as he wakes and then right before bed. During the day, he drinks water with the occasional apple juice. He LOVES his juice and will down the entire cup within minutes :) Right now, his favorite are:
 Fruit: Grapes
Veggie: Green beans or Peas
Snack: Go-Gurt, Applesauce, or Goldfish
Food: PB&J sandwiches, Grams's meatloaf, CARBS!
 
Jack still loves being outside. He goes from one place to another doing whatever he feels like. He absolutely LOVES dogs and will bark anytime he sees one (real or fake!). He is beginning to climb all sorts of things and sometimes makes us nervous. He loves banging things and making noise. He has really gotten into moving all his toys into places such as his diaper pail, clothes hamper, and our bathtub. It is the cutest thing, but it gets old cleaning it all out daily! We are trying our best to give him his paci less and less, and we love it because he jabbers so much more. He has about 8 words down. It is the sweetest noise to hear him "talk." He knows most of his body parts and many animal sounds (dog, cat, elephant, lion, monkey). 
 
Jack goes to bed usually between 8:30-9 and wakes up between 6-6:45. He then takes a morning nap and an afternoon nap. He is able to do just one nap in the early afternoon as long as he is kept really busy with no down time (Sundays).   
 
 He watches and mimics everything! He knows that this is how I fill his sippy cup so he now helps himself. Again, super cute but not so cute cleaning up the water mess!
He has learned how to make bubbles!
Jack, you are an absolute joy to watch grow. I can't believe the things you know and do. You light up my world sweet boy. God is going to do great things with you!

I loved you yesterday, I love you today, and I will love you tomorrow,
Mommy
