I took the day off work today to spend with the "boys." Daddy, Jack & I went to Jack's swimming class this morning and it was fun. Jack is doing so well. He now will lie on his stomach and use his arms and legs in a swimming motion while you hold him in the water. He also stands on the side of the pool and will jump in to you if you hold his hand and catch him. He goes underwater...and can usually get himself back up. He LOVES the water slide...and goes underwater and struggles before I can get him back up every time he slides down...and he doesn't seem to mind at all. He wants to keep going back down again.
After swimming classes, we headed to the pediatrician for his 15 month appointment. Jack went crazy! Granted...he was overtired ..as he should have been napping at that time...but he literally was screaming and crying and yelling "Mama" the whole time we were in the examination room. He kept pointing to the door asking to leave....he was so upset. Dr. Littleton felt this was normal for his age. She also assured us that his not wanting us to touch his face, hair, ears, etc. was something that he would outgrow. (She said if he is still resisting that sort of contact at 18 months we would talk about it then.) She was impressed that he can recognize colors and recognize and say certain letters (A, E, D, O, U, I, S).
Jack weighed in at 27lbs 4oz (85% going down!) and was 33 1/2" tall (off the charts) with ahead circumference of 50 cm (97% going up) So we have a tall slim boy!
His hair is so pretty and curly. Everyone assumes he is a little girl as we have not had the heart to have his hair cut yet. He is starting to run (it is so cute to watch him try to run). He likes to dance and LOVES music. He sucks in his breath (Mommy does that) every time he sees something pretty (flowers, Easter eggs, candy, etc.) It is darling!
He is till nursing...and loves to nurse all night long. I am not sure how I am ever going to wean him. I love him more than anything.
He is taking a late nap right now (on our bed). When he wakes up we will have a snack and then head off to the mall to do some shopping for some summer baby cloths...and just to have fun! Happy 15 months sweet baby of mine!
