15 Months

Katelyn turned 15 months on the 5th, but we just went to her well check today. She did surprisingly well. In months past she normally would fuss anytime a nurse/doc was anywhere near her. This time she smiled, waved, & talked to them, I was nicely surprised! Here are her stats:

Height - 33" - 98% (First time she's been this high, surprisingly - I thought she would have been up in the 98th percentile from day 1...we've finally hit it, not surprising! :o)

Weight - 25lbs 8 oz - 86%

Head - 18 1/2" - 89%

We are thankful to have a happy healthy baby girl!

We were also happy to hear that her language skills seem to be developing well too. We have always thought she was a very "verbal" kid. Since day 1 she hasn't been afraid to tell us what she needs, that's for sure :o) The doc even said that she is one of the most talkative 15 month olds she's seen in awhile, but you never know if she was just telling us that to make us feel good! Just so I'll remember, here are a few of the words that she says really well...hi, bye bye, mommy, daddy, pappy, mimi, Kristen & Tina (her teachers), wa wa (water), cracker, baby, rock, moon, milk, duck, quack, kitty cat, hot, mana (banana), turtle, shoes, happy, cuuu (cute), hat, ball, cooking, up, chair...and she signs...thank you, please, eat, more, milk, water...some animal sounds....baaa baaa (sheep), roar (lion), ooo ooo ahh ahh (monkey), moo (cow), cocka (rooster), quack (duck), oooo (elephant). There are probably others, but that's all I can think of for now. We are loving this stage and just trying to enjoy everyday!
