Xavier is 15 Months!

My 15 month old toddler is growing (albeit slowly). Xavier had his well-baby check-up today and behaved so well! My little monster is jumping up in height, measuring in at 30 1/4 inches tall (about 20th %) His adorable egg-head is 47 cm (about 40th %) and his weight is 18 lbs 10 oz (less than 1st %). Because his weight growth curve has started to flatten out we will be checking back in another month to re-weigh. Poor little guy had 2 immunizations today as well as an ear/sinus infection, and he has not been shy about letting me know how unhappy he is! Besides not feeling well today Xavier is usually such a sweetheart and so much fun. He is getting more and more vocal, and is into repeating words such as "wow wow wow" "bird bird bird" and "bye bye bye." He is still sleeping good all night and taking one nap a day, and is eating very well (though obviously not enough to make him gain weight!) He is such a joy and life would be so dull without him! He understands a lot, will point to what he wants (or just open the pantry and get it himself) will hold mommy or daddys hand to climb up/down the stairs like a big boy, can climb off the couch/beds (but not up yet, yay!) and is just all around a funny little boy.
