I seriously can't believe my baby boy is 15 months old! David (or Dave as Noah sometimes calls him) has grown into a talking machine (definitely takes after his older brother), a silly boy who loves to spin in circles, an adventurous boy who climbs on anything he can (and shouldn't), a picky eater, a boy who loves to bring me books to read (especially "The Little Blue Truck" {thanks, Robyn}, "Good night Moon", and "Good night Gorilla"), and a snuggle bug who still loves to cuddle.
At 15 months, David weighs 20.4 pounds (I know, he's a little guy and we have started some supplements for him). His big brother always enjoyed eating but we haven't quite had the same kind of luck with this little guy. So, we are working on it. It's funny because Daniel and I would always comment on how other children were picky eaters and it should be as simple as putting the food in front of your children and making them eat it. No biggie. Well, we now understand all those parents who struggle with children who don't really care for food. Boy, were we living in a dream world....David simply eats to live and definitely does not live to eat. He eats just enough to take off the edge and wants to get down and "play." He is in the 2nd percentile in weight and 40th in height. He has maintained that growth pattern over the last 6 months and has not continued to drop, so we figure he is just going to be a small fry for now :) A cute one at that! Don't you just want to squeeze him?
Sweet David!!! Happy 15 months you precious thing! btw...did I see a big boy bed in the back ground in the Noah's room????
