15 Months!

Cooper turned 15 months old last week! She is getting so big and doing all kinds of new things all the time. We went to the doctor on Wednesday for her check-up. She is our tiny little girl! She only weighs 21 lbs 2 oz (25th percentile) and is 31 inches long (75th percentile). Long and skinny! We're still trying to figure out what is in that belly if she only weighs 21 lbs! Just to compare, at 15 mos Kendall was 28 lbs!!! Just crazy!

 Cooper had to get two shots and then her second flu shot, so three total! She was fine as soon as I could pick her up though - I think Kendall had a harder time with it than she did. :) Dr. B said she looks great and that even though she's not really talking a ton yet, that she's totally fine. She knows exactly what we're saying all the time and can follow our instructions. She's just getting so big!

 Some things she is doing lately:
- She is starting to love on her babies a lot more. She will carry a baby around and kiss it and snuggle with it. So sweet!
- She does say a few words: Daddy, Mommy, Molly, Holly, Bye-Bye...I think that's it! She does a lot of "beeping" and "grunting." We call her our little beeper. :)
- She walks really well and runs too! Her and Kendall love to play chase around the house - they just laugh and laugh!
- She loves her sasses. When she goes to sleep she has one in her mouth, one in her hand, and more in her bed just in case.
- She goes to bed around 8, wakes up around 8, and has dropped her morning nap, just taking a long 3 hour nap in the afternoon.
- She loves to read books and when she turns the pages she makes a sound like "re-a, re-a, re-a." We think she is "reading." :)
- She still loves to cuddle with us - and we love that! She will lay her head on our shoulder even when she's not sleepy.
- She eats anything and everything for as long as we will feed her. It's her favorite thing to do.
- She wears 12 or 18 mo clothes and size 3 diapers.
- Randy is her favorite person in the whole world. Probably followed closely by Kendall. But she just really loves her daddy. I've never seen a bigger Daddy's girl! When he comes home she runs to the front door and won't let him put her down for a long time. It's pretty sweet.
- She moved up to Kendall's car seat this month! So now she gets to face forward and sit up. So big.

 I'm sure there's much more that I'm forgetting right now. We are just enjoying her so much and love watching her grow!

 Her big blue eyes and sweet smile are just the best. So thankful for our sweet girl!!

Happy 15 months Cooper!! We love you!
