15 months!

Owen,
15 months have come and gone so quickly Owen, and oh how you have changed. You and your little brother are supposed to 15 months apart... that means his arrival should be any DAY! I can't believe you are going to be a big brother! I know you are going to be such a good big brother, because you love babies and are very interested in other children. I can't wait to see the bond you and your brother Holden have and the similarities and differences between the two of you. Let's just hope one thing you have in common is sleeping... it will be very difficult for us to have a non sleeper after you have been a GREAT sleeper.

At 15 months you:
- say over 20 words! I stopped counting when we got to 20 at the doctor the other day.... That is fabulous! You talk all the time and let us know your opinion on the situation.
- You can point out your nose, mouth, ears, eyes, & feet- we are working on other body parts but you seem to get confused when we add any more to the mix.
- You LOVE the outdoors and want to be outside ALL the time. I am not sure how this winter is going to go with you not being able to play outside.
- You are a climbing fool... climbing anything you can, you are not afraid of of falling at all, and this scares me- we are currently trying to figure out how to secure some of our big pieces of furniture- b/c we have found you working your way up.
- you weigh 21 lbs and are 30.5 inches tall.... You are so busy that gaining weight is tough.. you are a pretty good eater. You eat lots of fruit and yogurt-those are your favorites, but you also like most vegetables and pasta. You are not a fan of meat and cheese.

Owen, you make me happier than I ever thought possible. I am thoroughly enjoying being able to stay home with you and watch you grow and learn new things each day. We have so much fun, and your dad is loving everything about you too. You now run to him and give him hugs and kisses as soon as he gets home, and you don't leave his side until its time for bed. You are 100% in love with your daddy - which I love. I love watching you two together it makes my heart smile.

Well next month I will be posting about a 16 month old- and a BIG BROTHER... CRAZY!

I love you sweet boy!
