Today you are 15 months old. Let me tell you, that this has probably been the worst month (14-15) for quite some time. You have pretty much been sick the entire month. You have had two back-to-back ear infections (well…I should say the first infection never healed!), a nasty mucous-filled cough and we just got over the flu-or something similar that made you throw up! Needless to say, we have had a few rough nights of sleep with you…or maybe I should say, a few GOOD nights of sleep with you! But, none the less, you are on the mend and I am going to be asking about tubes at your well-child visit.
You continue to be a happy child! You still love being outside! Even when it is 5 degrees out, you are happy as can be! And I love it! We have not started off the new year as perfectly as we would like. We had a “small” mis-hap with you in the chariot and us on our cross-country skis. Mom was in the lead, with dad following behind videoing, when Maggie and the neighbor dog crossed right in front of me. This caused me to fall, dad to go flying up over the chariot with knees hitting the handle bars, causing the chariot to flip landing face down. Needless to say, your momma was scared out of her mind, dad was injured (not serious) and you were facing the ground happy as can be! Well, you are safe for a while, until we replace the ski attachment for the chariot! We have also had a few minor bumps with sledding, though nothing that has caused my heart to stop like the chariot incident.
You are trying soooo hard to talk. You will use the small number of signs that you know to help us understand what you want…but we are a long way from perfect! You are always yelling for Maggie, but it comes out “aaaaggggggggg-eeeeeeeeeee.” You are definitely saying “yes,” “no", “dad,” “mamo,”hi,” “bye,” and “ank ooo" (thank you)! I can’t really think of any other words you are saying consistently. You sign “more” and when you try to say it, it comes out as “maa-owww.” It is soooo dang cute.You also are trying really hard at animal sounds.
Hadley, we love you to the moon and back! You bring such joy, laughter and fun to our lives! XOXOXO
