15 Month Check Up

This weekend at Whole Foods in the grocery cart/car. This photo is REALLY representative of how we are each day around here!


Well we have a new big guy! Christian beat out his little brother on weight this last week at their 15 month! Christian weights 24 pounds, 2 oz and was 32" tall. He was in the 50% for weight, 75 % for height and 75% for head size. Big Boy! He had grown 1 1/4 inch in a little over 2 months. Wow! Since this guy was born at 14 1/2 inches that is pretty amazing to me!
Brock did great at his apt too weighing in at 23 pounds 11 oz and 32" tall. He also had the same exact head size as Christian (48cm). He was very close to 50% weight and same on all the other statistics. The doctor was very impressed with both boys and we got the same advise on Brock's breath holding tantrums as before.... leave him alone and he will just quit when he is ready (about 3 years old or so). She told us some kids are just more difficult than others and it is a total personality thing. She said most kids who start tantrums like this early like this end up being type A personalities. Wonder where he gets that?!? FYI, I am bringing this up in his wedding toast....j/k :)
She also gave me permission to keep our night time bottle for a little while longer. They were supposed to be cut off all bottles as of 15 months and I think Brock would be just fine but Christian is a bit more picky with his milk sippy cups and gets most of his milk at night before bed. I am going to keep him on it at least another month to make sure he is ready to drop that liquid. He loves it so much and I just don't think he is ready just yet. Good news for Brock since he is in the team he gets to keep drinking milk too (although I do feel he is ready to drop the bottle).
Boys are starting to slow down in weigh gain since they take life on at full speed ahead. Very normal for little toddlers and they have really slimmed down :( We now have little men instead of babies.
