15 Months Old

I am 15 months old today! Its been a while since i've talked about the new things I've been up to so I think its time for an update.

To date, I still do not crawl. I really don't think I'll ever bother to learn. Climbing up stairs has become a breeze. Not only can I go up, I can go down. Going down is much more difficult for me, but if I have something or someone to hold onto its no sweat. I am pretty obsessed with stairs, though I'm constantly blocked from them. I also climb up and down furniture these days which is great fun! Pretty soon, i'll be scaling the bookshelf if Mommy and Daddy don't watch it.

I'm eating lots of great foods. Mommy is thrilled that I like ketchup with my eggs and my mac-n-cheese (she's a ketchup freak!). I am kinda over Cherrios these days and have gone back to liking Puffs. Mum Mums are still pretty high on the list of likes. Mommy is trying to get me to drink my milk out of a sippy cup these days, but i'm still prefering the bottle. I do however like my water and juice out of a sippy cup. Just not milk. You know I have to make it a little difficult for her! Oh, and I finally tried an orange and liked it!! I love eating fruits and veggies...which I hear is a great thing.

I love playing with my toys and spreading them far across the house, hiding them in the bathtub and other secret places and watching my favorite TV programs. Dora The Explorer is still tops on my list, although Go Diego Go has recently peaked my interest. I'm thinking of giving Dora a rest... i'm a little Dora'ed out.. although she still makes me smile pretty big. This past weekend Mommy bought me a Diego pillow case because I turned 15 months.. I love my Diego pillow!!! I know how to point to his face and say Diego! I'm still practicing the Spanish words that i've learned from watching Dora and Diego..and soon will be fluent. Just wait and see!

New teeth have sprouted in my mouth out of the blue after a dry spell. This really helps because now I can chomp on more things.

I love taking baths now. I love the flowing water, splashing it all over the place, chasing my toys in the tub and especially love when Mommy blows bubbles into the tub for me. Sometimes I try to stand up in the tub and Mommy scolds me and tells me to sit down. I'm a good boy and listen.

I still fight the whole sleeping bit. I take two naps a day when I'm at Ba Ngoai's house. And on the weekends I generally only take one nap. Bedtime is still 8pm and on occassion I actually fall asleep pretty fast. Most other times I give Mommy a hard time because I like to roll around and play. Mommy ends up falling asleep before me and I find I have to smack her to wake her up. Hee Heee...

Thats all I can think of at the moment. I'm sure there is alot more for me to tell...but its so hard to remember everything! I'm growing really fast, getting into everything (really fast) and just having a good time being a big little boy. :-)
