15 Months

As Lucy reached 15 months, she’s grown into quite the little chatterbox. Her favorite phrases are “uh-oh!” (usually after she throws something onto the floor) and “what’s this?” (when she brings us a toy, a book, or something she found on the floor).

Lucy’s favorite activities involve climbing onto the couch, sitting for a moment, then climbing down. Then repeating the whole process all over again. And again. She’s also figured out that the most efficient way down the stairs is to slide backward on her stomach.

It took us a while to figure out that when she was head-butting her baby doll, she was giving it “kisses.” So now when she gives “kisses,” it means we’re going to get head-butted (albeit gently). She’s also learned how to blow kisses, which is less painful to everyone involved.

Lucy is much more aware of herself and her surroundings, and when asked, she can point to her heart, her fingers, and her toes. She’s begun taking Sprout Songs music classes on Saturday mornings (learning rhythm) and Parent & Me yoga (learning… well, how to run around and mess with other participants’ yoga mats).2016-01-06 14.57.45Lucy getting her teeth examined by the dentist.

While Lucy loves healthy foods like vegetables and beans, every once in a while she likes to load up on carbs.
