Ryder at 15 months

Ryder is becoming such his own little person these days.  It's always amazing to see that transition from babyhood to toddlerhood, and that is what is happening in our house these days.  Ryder is mostly just getting faster, smarter, and bigger!  He falls a lot less than he was which is nice.  He still has no safety awareness and no clue how to go down anything.  He is pretty much a disaster on playground equipment.  He is starting to follow one-step directions like "get your socks" and "go give sissy kisses."  He really still loves toys especially all the pretend food and dishes. He always has at least 4 pieces in his hands at all times.  He pretends to eat the food a lot too. He loves toys and books and can entertain himself for a long period of time.   He still loves his Llama book and also loves, "Caps For Sale."  He pretends to read it and will make the same actions and sounds the monkeys make in the story.  

Stats: We had his 15 month check-up and is doing everything he is supposed to be doing.  Our doctor was surprised at how calm he was during the check-up.  Really he is just pretty chill!
Weight: 24.5 lbs (70%)     Height: 32 1/8 (80%)  

His afternoon nap varies from 1 1/2 hours to 3 hours.  Sleeps through the night and generally sleeps between 11 and 12 hours.

His 14th tooth is poking through but hasn't made it's way all the way through.  He is the drool king and can soak a shirt in seconds.  

His eating preferences change often.  He is boycotting dinner for the most part right now. His favorite foods right now are pizza, Juevos, grapefruit, peanut butter toast, and cottage cheese.  


Some new words are "happy birthday" and "boom" when he gives daddy high 5's.  

Ryder is really observant and notices things I don't think many 15 months old notice.  The other day while we were driving he pointed out the sunset.  The colors in the sky were brilliant and he kept pointing at the sky and babbling.  He also notices if Rilyn's hair looks silly and will walk over to her and start laughing.  He's generally been a pretty happy boy this past month, and we are just enjoying him!
