Dear G

Today you are 15 Months old...WOW! Time has flown since you've been born and I love you more today than yesterday. I spend a lot of days/time just looking at you and wondering how it is possible to love someone this much and wonder if it will be possible to love anyone else as much as I love you. You amaze me each and every day. I truly cannot put into words how much Daddy and I love you and are amazed by everything you do/are.


You are walking, running and climbing on everything.

You have 3 teeth with many more ready to pop through.

You are still nursing and love it more than ever (so do I :)

You can sign more, all done, and where

You can nod yes/no, say Yes, say Mama, Daddy, doggie, Cody, Maggie, woof, choo choo,

You give kisses when asked to Mommy, Daddy, Grammy, Grampy, Cody & Maggie. You've also give one to Pop, Memaw, Uncle Drew and cousin Brandon.


You've started to give kisses without being asked to Mommy, Daddy & Cody. (Cody was the first "person" you gave a kiss to without being prompted.)


You love Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.


You can color with crayons, or pens, but Mommy & Daddy prefer crayons!


You love to help Mommy and Daddy do things. You help load/unload the dishwasher, wash/fold clothes, work outside (water flowers, etc..), clean up, and walk Cody, and many other things!


You have been going to Waterbabies for 3 months in a row and love it! (Especially now that Mommy is teaching it!)


You are now sleeping in your own room, in your own bed. You started doing this during your 14th month. May 12th was the first night you EVER slept in a room away from Mommy & Daddy (including when you were in the hospital)You went from sleeping in a bassinet for 6 months next to Mommy & Daddy's bed, to sleeping in Mommy & Daddy's bed for 5-6 months, to sleeping in a toddler bed next to Mommy & Daddy's bed to sleeping in your own double bed, in your own room! Each transisition was MUCH harder on Mommy & Daddy than on you.


Cody sleeps with you every night.


You have been refusing to drink milk since we first tried it when you turned 1!


You love to eat strawberries and grapes. Up until last week stawberries were your favorite, but now grapes are.


You can point to head, eyes, ears, nose, teeth & mouth.


You wear a size 3 diaper.


You weigh 19lbs 10oz, are 30 inches tall and have a head circumfernce of 45 1/2 cm. You are in the 50th percentile for height and head circumference and the 1st % for weight!


You LOVE to be outside and cry and throw a temper tantrum when it is time to come in.


Your favorite part of week days is when Daddy comes home and you get to run outside and greet him. He always puts you in your swing and you love it!!!


You are going to be a BIG sister in less than 7 weeks!!!
