15 months!


This adorable little monkey is 15 months!! He gets sweeter and cuter and more irresistible every day!!  His mellow, funny, tender, layed back personality continues to show itself with each passing day!  He continues to love and adore his big sisters d brother...if he had it his way he would be smack dab in the middle of the yard driving Jacksons jeep around while they play!  (sometimes mommy lets him have his way ;) )  He has discovered climbing and now climbs anything and everything possible!!  He loves clapping for himself...and is the best smoocher!  He gives kisses to anyone who asks by leaning his little head towards you and nuzzling with dreamy eyes!  He has taken his first steps although it is not his preferred choice of transportation.  He says a few words now...mama, daddy, more...mine and we think we've even heard dog! So funny!  He has discovered that sitting in mommys lap listening to a book is fun too!  Loves food and would eat all the time!  He's a charmer with the nursery ladies at church...he continues to be a pure delight to us all and we are so blessed to have him!

Height 30in 15%
