Adam was 15 months old yesterday. How can it be that he has been here 15 months? My little baby is slipping away from me and is becoming more a little boy every day. Here are the things about Adam at 15 months:
* weighs about 18 1/4 pounds, still facing backwards in the car seat..poor dude
* He is 29 inches tall, or around there, too squiggly to get a good read.
* He is wearing 9 month clothes, finally, but can still wear his 3-6 month stuff.
* Still wearing size 2 diapers
* His hair is getting longer and it looks like it *might* be red.
* He can run. fast. away from you in large crowds. and laugh about it as he goes.
* He is sleeping through the night, although with us stretched out sideways while we cling to the side of the bed.
* He loves to be outside, this is the best way to calm him in any situation. You have to face the full out tantrums when you bring him inside though.
* He can sign: more, eat, bottle, please, daddy, mommy.
* He says no words...just a series of signs, points, and grunts. Amazingly, he is easier to understand at 15 months than Jacob who was saying about 20 words at this age.
* He no longer naps. At all.
* He can play tag with his brother and loves that
* He loves writing utensils, I suspect because brother does, he likes to "write" on things
* He has a toothbrush fetish. If you can't find yours, you can be sure he has run off with it. He likes his teeth brushed, I think he is the only kid who does.
* He climbs on everything. He knows how to push a chair to the counter and climb onto the counter and steal Easter candy. I figure it's only a matter of days before he scales the refrigerator to get to the good snacks.
* He eats all table food...in fact if the table were food he would eat it. He eats, and eats, and eats. I think he will be one of those competitive eaters you see at Nathan's hot dogs every fourth of July.
* His favorite food is bananas and he must have one at every meal. This confirms to me that he must be part monkey. He got that from his dad.
* He has a tremendous sweet tooth. If you have cake, cookies etc. you have to leave the room to eat it or he will scream a blood curdling scream until you are forced to fill his open mouth. He also gets this from his dad.
* He is the cutest, sweetest little boy. I think he gets that from his Mom. LOL
