totally mesmerized


this is thomas the first time we showed him the fishy screen saver (back at the end of march). he didn't move for almost 30 seconds, except for his twitching feet. he still loves it and talks whenever he sees the fishes appear. he points and goes "oo ooo" sometimes a high pitched "ay ya ya ya."

he had his 15 month well-baby visit. up to 22.2 lbs and 30.8 inches. at his 12 month visit he was 28.2 inches so he grew a lot! (man, i wish i could grow over 2 inches in 3 months!) we noticed he was starting to bang his head into the dining table and can reach more stuff on table tops now, but it didn't really register that he was growing until we saw him stretched out on the little height counter. also he is really starting to get sign language now. he signs for food, more, again, all done, hat and happy. of course, when he is tired, he starts to just wave his hands around erratically and it is impossible to tell what he wants. :)

That's so funny!

I wish we had more time to teach Ethan sign language. All we know is if he doesn't want something, he shakes his head and waves his arms to push whatever away. Oh well.

Thomas looks so long! Even from the picture he looks tall.

Very interesting how when kids are tired their language skills break down, whether spoken or signed.
