Jace turned15 months today. We went to the doctor and here are the stats:
Weight: 21# (10th %)--we have had a few setbacks with an apparent intestinal infection that caused diarrhea for nearly a month and a stomach virus or food poisoning episode, but thankfully all is resolved now and he is just above his weight when it all began again.
Height: 30" (25th %)
A few of his favorite things:
Food: KETCHUP. PIZZA. Bananas, peaches, blueberries, strawberries, watermelon, applesauce--fruit, fruit, fruit, fruit, fruit; our newest favorite is a sausage biscuit--he'll eat the whole sausage patty and one side of the biscuit. He is becoming a little more picky--has been eating 2 meals really well and picking at one. He has learned that if he doesn't eat he waits until the next meal and he is okay with that. He'll hold out, SURE there will be something more enjoyable at the next meal!
Play: LOVES to play with toys. Anythings that moves or makes noise. Anything that is not his or he sees brother, mommy, or daddy using (cell phone, broom/dust pan, dust cloth, kitchen utensil, anything Barrett's). He has just gotten to the point where he will sit long enough to enjoy a short book and I am really enjoying that time together. He loves to play "I'm gonna get you" and runs away with biggest grin and the laugh that once you hear you will never forget and as a mother I think to myself--oh dear, is that really going to be his laugh--poor thing, but I digress, I really do love it--so Jace. Loves a tickle war. Loves to make a mess!!! He has such an infectious laugh and a vibrant, adventurous spirit. Love my baby.
Misc: loves shoes--will go get them and hold up his feet for you to put them on--gets upset when you take them off at times.
Loves dogs (has no word for his brother yet, but says "Bri-Bri" and "dog-dog" for our dog Briley; also has a "buff buff" barking sound he does when he sees her)
Remains VERY independent. Resists eating if you try to feed him now.
VERY BUSY. Perpetual motion except for an occasional snuggle before bedtime or if Barrett or Adam wants to sit with me (jealousy, but it does warm a mother's heart).
He is still in 12 month clothes for the most part, but wears some 18 month. Size 3-4 diapers.
He has just gotten into Bear's first shoes he wore at 9 months. Tiny, sweet, extremely ticklish feet :)
Still a good sleeper. Has started crying when you lay him down at night again, but once he goes to sleep he sleeps 10-12 hours. Can't complain! He also naps about 2-3 hours in the afternoon.
So thankful for this precious gift of Jace Addison Tipps! I feel like I will be blogging his 15th bday before I turn around.
