15 Months

Loves to put marker/pen caps on and off. Also lids to containers.
Time out against the wall has started (20 seconds or so).

Know how to do household jobs: open dishwasher, use the hose on the vacuum, get the laundry basket (puts clothes in washer and drier and out of basket when complete).

Songs he does motions to: "If you are Happy and you know it..." and "The wheels on the bus."

Dancing: He continues to love music and turn in circles, stop his foot and wave his arms. He looks like an Irish Dancer. It is a sight to see!

Running: He squats down and waits to hear "On your mark, get set, go...." before he runs.

Cleaning: Washes off tray with a wash cloth and continues to love to vacuum, sweep, dust and do laundry

He's a climber!-If a toy is in the right position he climbs onto the couch. He also loves to walk and fall on our bed--this is a bad habit we started, and we have so much fun pretending to fall too that it is hard to break.

New words: eyes, down, "I did it" (you can hear the fluctuation),
Gets excited about: dogs, fruit smoothies, eating, music (loves to dance),

Kisses: I get about 20 a day. Open mouth with an "ahh" sound effect. Gives kisses to dolls, books and other little kids.

Teeth: 4 upper and 2 molars, 4 bottom and one molar

Sleeping: 8:30 to 6. Cries in the morning. We get milk and he comes in bed with us to cuddle (starting to be a great cuddlier)-loves face to face. He falls asleep by us rubbing his back or crying it out. Just recently we have been putting him in his crib. We would read one book and then keep the lights on for him to read. He reads (looking at pages and mumbling) for about 5 minutes and then goes to sleep.

Weight: 25 lbs
Height: 30 inches

We have really enjoyed this month. He is learning so much and is just a sponge when it comes to learning. He is a copy cat but that is a good thing most of the time. He is such a little boy and we can't get enough of him!
