- At her 15-month check-up, Leah weighed 21 lbs., 6 oz. (which is only about 2 1/2 lbs. more than her appt. 3 months ago-- and I promise, the kid eats all the time!)-- in the 25th% and is 31 inches tall (the 70th%).
- Her vocabulary has really started to explode this past week. Yesterday, she finished drinking her juice, announced "Mo!" and proceeded to walk to the refrigerator & try to open the door to get herself more juice. She also mimicks the word "eat" if I tell her that is what we are going to do. She says "baby" very well, and can pick out a picture of a baby when she says it. She knows "ball." She says "Mommy" but still doesn't seem to recognize that as my name. She also has a few of her own words that would be hard to recognize if you didn't know what she was talking about, like one for her Pooh, and words for Elmo, milk, and shoes. She also seems to have a word for a friend in her class, Miles.
- If you tell her it is time to go bye-bye, she will start to wave (at herself), go to find her shoes & jacket and plop down where I can help her put them on.
- So far she's doing well with the Christmas tree. There are only non-breakable ornaments within her reach so we don't have to continually tell her "no." The first day she really didn't do anything with the tree, didn't even seem to notice it was there, but then she slowly began to notice it, and pointed at the ornaments, saying "ball!" and touching them, but not really playing with them or trying to get them off. We'll see if it can last all season!
