15-month

Graham had his 15-month well baby visit last week - the doctor said he is looking great (and that we have one cute kid...duh)! :) He did have to get three shots but he handled them pretty well...poor kiddo. Here are his stats and a couple pics of Graham's first experience with fireworks, in his PJs.

• Height: 31 3/4 inches (70th percentile)
• Weight: 23.14 pounds (66th percentile)
• Head Circumference: 18 3/4 inches (73rd percentile)

This Graham has been up to lately:

• Running everywhere...I wish I could have just a tiny bit of his energy.
• He is a jabber-monkey. Seriously, the kid does not stop talking. 
• His favorite words include: dog, bubble, dada, mama (sometimes), deer, meow, hi/hello, bye-bye
• He's getting pretty good at sign language and tells us "more," "please" and "all done."
• Graham is becoming a pretty ornery little boy...lately he has been doing things that he knows are "no-no" and looks at us as he's doing them and says "no-no!" Sometime he even swats his own hand. (Goodness, what are we in for?)
• He loves playing the drums and guitar...he's drumming on the coffee table as I type this. 
• Graham's favorite place to be is outside...he'd stay out there all day if we'd let him.
• He's still a good sleeper...however, he has started to play in his crib for a long time (sometimes an hour) until he falls asleep. Last night he was jumping, rolling and then sticking his legs between the rails as far as they'd go trying to reach the floor. And, on the weekends, it's not unusual for him to take a 4-hour nap. Both of these are characteristics of his daddy - Nate can never fall asleep and typically doesn't go to bed until very late...and he can nap with the best of them. :)
