Nathan - 15 months!

My baby Nathan is definitely a toddler now! And he is so adorable. I love him so much. He makes my day, every day. And I'm not exaggerating. I love him because he loves me and treats me well. Unconditionally. He doesn't hit, argue, throw toys at my head, etc...etc (can you tell the kind of days I'm having with Joshua lately?) He loves to cuddle and makes you feel so so special. The gals at the Child Watch at my gym just love Nathan because he is always hugging their legs and lets them cuddle with them, too.

Nathan is at the 50% for EVERYTHING. He weighs 25 pounds, and his height is 79 cm.

Nathan is independent and learns things on his own, by experimenting. I love that. Sometimes I'm so busy with Josh that I look over and am amazed at the things he learned how to do by himself. He opens doors now that push inward. And loves to play in toilet water (gross!). He learned how to climb on chairs and Josh's bed. He is saying lots of first words. His current favorites are "Joshy", "hello"--with a phone up to his ear, "wow!", "uh-oh", "shoes", "cheese"--when he smiles for the camera, and "fishy". He probably learns a handful of new words every week. He loves carrying around books and looking at the pictures. He is even letting us read to him now, although it has to be very quickly. He really likes turning pages. And he is also understanding us and following commands pretty well. He likes to dance to music by twirling. A video of him doing it is down below. I can't wait to see what the next few months have in store with our little man!
