He loves picking up these little pumpkins and throws them on the ground!

This one has nothing to do with the harvest scene but this shows off his personality and his climbing skills well!

I LOVE THIS LITTLE PUMPKIN!

15 months old

 

Yesterday Payton was 15 months old.  Today he had his 15 month old Well-Baby check up at the doctor.  Since the weather was rainy today Jamie was able to go with me to take little man to the doctor.  I am glad he is able to go to most appointments to talk with the doctor and asks question just like me.  I always make him be the bad guy and hold Payton for shots and the assessment.  As soon as Dr. P started listening to Payton’s heart and checking his ears, he started crying.  He DISLIKES any doctor coming close to his ears since he had sooo many ear infections before he got tubes at 8 months.  One thing is for sure, he doesn’t forget why he is at the doctors office!

Today’s visit wasn’t as bad as I thought.  Payton only received one shot for MMR.  They were out of Flu shots for his age group so we will have to go back next week for another shot :(  Here are Payton’s stats and a little bit of what he is doing right now.

Weight= 19 lbs. and 12 ozs.   (2 percentile)

Height= 30.75 inches   (38 percentile)

Head Circumference= 47 cm   (33 percentile)

Right now Payton you have been walking since a little bit after your first birthday.  You are practically running now.  You climb onto everything and I am so scared that you are going to really get hurt.  You love to play with tractors and trucks in the floor and push them around.  You really love to read books now and you listen intensively to words and sounds that mommy says.  You feed yourself like a big boy and you like to use a toddler fork and spoon.  You have become a very picky eater and you don’t like half of the food that you use to like when we introduced table food.  Right now you like hotdogs, chicken nuggets, french fries, cheese doodles, and fruit.   You sleep through the night and you don’t fight sleep much anymore because you are always worn out because you are so busy.  You have started throwing your head backwards when you get mad and Dr. P said, “ this too shall pass!”.  Your most favorite word to say is “JAIDA” and you call her 100 times a day…that is our dog!  You now have 4 teeth on the bottom, and 5 teeth on the top.  Mommy just found 2 molars that have come in last week.  Your mommy and daddy love you more than anything in the world and you are just perfect.  We can’t imagine what life was before you and we look forward to watching you learn and do something new each day.
