A little update on my Paxman

II am no longer doing the monthly updates since we have passed the 1 year mark.  But I thought I would share just a few facts about my little squeeze!

From his 15 month check-up
Height-32.5 inches (90%)
Weight-24 lbs 8 ounces (50%)
Head-48.2 cm (80%)

Wears size 12-18 months clothes and size 5 diapers (Ashlyn stopped at 4's) and size 5 shoes.  

Sleeps 7ish to 7ish and had gone down to 1 afternoon nap a day.  He still uses his pacifier...mostly when he is sleeping and in the car.  

He has gotten to be a much more picky eater but a few of his current faves are bananas, pancakes, blueberries, string cheese, applesauce, turkey and sweet potatoes.  He also loves Cheerios and goldfish and other snacks like that.  He still hasn't mastered a spoon but keeps trying.  

Some cute things he is doing right now...he blows on hot food and he blows out if the right corner of his mouth.  He assumes all food is hot and starts saying "hot hot hot" before I can even set it down!  He does the same thing with his bubble baths.  His wave goodbye is so cute.  He keeps his little fingers bent and and kinda just wiggles his fingers starting at the pinky working his way to his thumb.  He is the heartthrob in his class and his teachers can't get enough of him!  They are always gushing over him!  If I am late to pick them up he will go over to our family picture and point to it and say "momma momma".  He also is the only kid in the class who throws his trash away and says please and thank you!  He can make the sounds of several animals and he mimics a lot of words and sounds.  He is often found wrapped around my leg if I am standing still.  He absolutely loves his sister and wants to do everything she is doing!  He loves music and loves to dance.  He try's to jump but he ends up just stomping his foot.  He runs everywhere he goes...rarely is he seen walking. He loves wearing hats and sometimes won't leave the house/car without one.  When he gets excited (or wants something to eat) he runs in place really fast (we call it fast feet) and sometimes he does this if he doesn't get his way!  He is still very easily redirected when he gets upset or frustrated. 

Some not so cute things he is doing right now...occasionally he will bite my shoulder when I am holding him and that really hurts!  He also climbs onto everything!!! Luckily he has pretty good balance.  He is starting to want to walk vs being carried which isn't always the most convenient.  He still throws food when he looses interest in a meal but now he says "doggie" as he throws it. He is also very fascinated with the toilet...gross!

He has my heart and fits perfectly into our little crazy family!  I love you Paxton Doyle!!!
