15 Months

  

Matthew at fifteen months…

• Smiles all the time.
• Finally starting to say a few words… “down”,  “no”,  “head”, “eyes”  - but generally just likes to grunt and point.
• Loves to climb up and down the dangerous marble stairs.
• Gets excited when a movie starts but has no interest in actually watching it.
• Is very excited to start nursery… see’s Luke being dropped off and does not understand why he can’t stay.  Only 3 more months and they will both be in there together.  We will definitely be having a party.
• Doesn’t want to sit on my lap in Sunday school… generally walks around in the back corner being adorable and distracting to all around.
• Loves to stand up in the bathtub.
• When we ask him a question he says ‘NO’ even though he means yes.
• He’s very ticklish.
• Doesn’t like to get dressed or get his pants changed.
• Loves to go on the trampoline with the kids.
• Loves to go down big slides and swing on the swings.
• Goes to sleep with one silky blanket (from Great Grandma W.) and a car blanket.
• Loves to be chased.  He squeals and tries to run away but ends up losing his balance and crawls to get away in time.
• Will eat anything and lots of it.
• Makes us all laugh at the dinner table by mimicking our facial expressions or actions.
• Touches his head, ears and eyes when we tell him to.  Sometimes he can’t find his eyes though.  So funny.
• Loves a sippy cup of juice and is NOT picky about if it’s the Buzz Lightyear or Cars cup… (like Luke is.)
• Loves to play on the top floor with the girls.
• Now wants to kiss the picture of Jesus that sits on his dresser every time he sees it.
• Sometimes takes two naps, sometimes takes one long nap.  Usually goes to bed about 8:00.
• Loves to give kisses.
• Is a total sweetheart.  Just get into nursery and then stop growing, ok kid?
