15 Months Old!

Yesterday George turned 15 months old! He is such a little boy now, the baby in him seems to be very hard to find anymore. There are still some nights that he likes to be rocked to sleep, and as I hold his snuggly little body, I hug him a little tighter knowing that our snuggle sessions won't last a whole lot longer.

Today we had G's 15 month doctor's appointment and here's what we learned:

• He weighs 24 lbs, 4 oz, which is the 47th percentile.
• He is 31 1/8 inches tall, which is the 51st percentile.
• His head is 18 5/8 inches, which is the 72nd percentile.
• There's a good chance that he's allergic to peanuts, which is kind of a bummer. He's had peanut butter three times now, and each time his face breaks out in a blotchy red rash. The doctor said to avoid peanuts completely until he's two, when he can do more tests.
• Even though he isn't saying anything yet, George met all his developmental milestones. He also gave the poor nurse a very hard time, crying from the second she walked in until after she left. He was not a fan of that mean lady with the needles!

It is so much fun to see George's personality develop. I've made a list of my predictions of what Goerge might be when he grows up based on his personality at age 15 months. Here goes...
1. A handyman. This one is pretty obvious since Sean is always downstairs with cool tools that George loves to play with. His favorites are the drill and the little scraper. He also loves the paint roller.
2. A janitor. George loves the vacuum, he loves to swiffer, sweep, and wipe off tables, doors, and walls with a dust cloth. Of course, he is usually the source of the mess that he's cleaning up, but that isn't important.
3. The host of Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. I tried to think of a job where you need a very loud voice and you get to yell the whole time. I figured that Ty Pennington can't be the host forever, and George's big voice could fill that spot very well.
4. A hairdresser. George spends about 30 minutes a day either brushing his own hair or mine. He also loves to watch me blow-dry my hair and will pretend to blow-dry his own.
5. An architect. Lately he is very into stacking things. He stacks his blocks, tupperware, pots and pans, cups, and toys. I figure he's designing a large building of the future.
6. A NASCAR driver. Not only because he loves cars, but more because he loves to have stickers all over his clothes! There are many days that George's clothes are covered with our return address labels, since those are the only stickers we have in the house!

George really is a wonderful little boy. I feel so lucky that he's ours!
