I'm 15 Months Old





Hi Everyone!
    I'm 15 Months old today! My parents took me out for a "Soul Food Dinner" earlier in the month. "Mom Mom" [as I like to call my Mommy now] got such a kick out of watching me eat a chicken drumstick that she had to take a picture of me. I'm fast becoming a "big kid". I can run at a much faster speed than I was able to a month ago. And some of my hobbies include: Spending as much time outdoors as possible,  hunting for sticks and rocks (I find them truly fascinating), taking my doggie Lexie on walks, pushing my toy shopping cart and toy stroller, riding my Dora The Explorer scooter (that my friend Nora gave me for my birthday), going out to spend time dining with my parents and dancing! I LOVE to dance! I especially like House Music and Rock!

My favorite meal of the day is breakfast. I really enjoy scrambled eggs, sausage and potatoes. I am completely turned off by pureed baby foods and prefer to eat "real food". I can feed myself with my hands, but am really trying hard to learn to eat with my silverware. My favorite beverage is still whole milk, but Mommy tries to encourage me to drink water whenever possible. She can't trick me though. I don't like it and I don't like juice either. I am still practicing drinking from a Sippy Cup. But, I'd much rather turn the cup upside down and watch the liquid fall to the floor or the couch or the chair or on my clothes. I find that funny. I can say a few words that I fully understand their meanings: Hi, Mom Mom, Dad, Cat,  and Clock is my absolute favorite word. I'm trying to speak to everyone in full sentences, but I don't think most people understand my language yet. The thing that excites me the most right now are Exit signs. I love pointing them out every time I see one.
