15 Months

Terra went to her 15 month appointment and we got her most recent stats:

Height: 31": Just under 75%
Weight 20lbs: Just over 10%
Head circumference: Over 95%

So we've been seeing a trend for her of getting thinner, but at this appointment it broke into the 'underweight' category.
So we're are going to put some effort into getting her a few extra calories and some fattier food, since we don't eat a lot of fat.

She got a few shots which always breaks my heart.

A little about Terra at 15 months:

She is a pretty good eater. She loves oatmeal and smoothies, but her favorite is bananas. She is crazy about them- like screaming throwing herself on the ground because I only let her have 3 (yes, three whole bananas)  for breakfast.

She has learned to move the ladder over to the section of the counter where we keep bananas and can pull them apart and open them herself

Terra is so dramatic right now. Everything causes major tantrums and she gets super pissed pretty easily.
Unfortunately when she gets mad she bangs her head on things. A LOT. She has given herself some big bruises when she got mad and the surface she chose to bang her head on was too hard (concrete, the refrigerator, etc)

She is so smart- you can see her putting things together all the time.

 She is learning new words all the time and talks really well, she also has the CUTEST little voice.

She likes to read books and especially loves books with animals in them.

She already plays pretend quite a bit (I don't think my bigger kids did it this young) maybe it's because she has older siblings, but she pretends to eat and cook, take care of babies, pretends to sleep, drives cars and flies planes, and pretends to be a dog.

Terra loves to play with and copy her big brother and sister so she ends up participating in homeschool when she can:



We love this girl!
