15 months (and some change)

The girls are 15 months!  It has been a whirlwind of a month- but we are all doing well!

Reese is still shy around new people, but is a total dare devil at home.  She still doesn't walk, but climbs on everything she can find.  She loves her new classes at the Little Gym and actually "practices" her moves at home.  She has become very afraid of loud noises (garbage trucks), but is absolutely fascinated by anything electronic.  She amazes me with how deeply she can concentrate on mastering a skill or figuring out a toy.  A little thinker for sure. Combine her analytical thinking and her tendency to climb…I'm gonna have my hands full!


Micaela struts her stuff all over the house and all but refuses to ride in a stroller or sit in a high chair.  We have actually had to tie her in her high chair during meals or she stands right up (I swear it isn't as horrible as it sounds).  Fortunately, she doesn't seem to mind at all. She loves to chatter while carrying her toy purse all over the house.  Her vocabulary is really expanding these days and it so cute to watch her learn new words and phrases.  The most recent: "Tickle, tickle, tickle"! She loves to be up high and wants me (or the mailman for that matter) to hold her up high all the time.  Refuse, and her is the view:



The girls are exactly the same weight at 21 lbs, 14.5 oz (40% percentile) and Michaela is currently exactly 1" taller at 30 1/4" and Reese at 29 1/4".  They flip flop all the time in the heigh race, but they are almost always equal in weight.

Getting the girls to pose for a cute shot is nearly impossible, but sometimes you get a candid shot or two that melt your heart and make you want to freeze time for just a little while longer.  We love you baby girls!
