15 months

Millie update!


(just a portion of the photo shoot with Valeri Anderson recently. More to come!)

She is now 15 months and is walking more, though crawling is still faster for her.

At her appointment this week, she weighed 22 pounds 7 ounces (45 percentile), and was 31.25 inches long (72 percentile).

She has 16 teeth (four of which are partly through molars) and she loves food. If her brothers are eating a snack, she gets right up in there to see what bites she can eat, too.

And she is getting so smart.  She knows where her hair/nose/toes/mouth/belly button/etc are. She points to each brother when we say their name. She loves looking at books and trying on shoes. She found a used bandaid on the floor, and lifted up her pants and tried to put it on her leg.

But she still nurses on demand.

And she still likes to sleep on or by her parents.



The Sunday School hour (roughly 10-11AM) is morning nap time, so it takes a good hallwalk/bounce/cuddle or her car seat to get her to drift off.




She goes up and down the stairs now as she pleases, ad sometimes tries to sneak back down to see brothers after they have gone to bed and before she goes to bed.



She loves selfies.

Snacking


A funny nursing position one day.


Walking a little in the doctor's office waiting room this week. She charmed everybody, then screamed to high heaven for her shots.


One last funny thought -- she gets jealous of James or Andrew when it's their turn to read a book with me. She squeals and pushes them off my lap. Andrew puts up with it, he adores her. James howls.

Her cheeks are perfectly, squishably kissable! And I love that rose headband she's wearing as she snacks. Why do we live in different states?!

Such a cutie. I feel your pain about reading books with Aaron and especially being in nursery I've got a club of kids who just want me to read them books on the floor. Spencer pushes, pulls hair and scratches them off of me. Jealousy at its finest
