15 months old




Henry is 15 months old! At his Dr.'s appointment today he weighed in at 24 lbs 11 oz (52nd percentile), although he feels a lot heavier than that, and is now 32 inches in length (76th percentile). Poor kid had to get 4 shots today. They are giving the 2nd MMR shot early to children in Minneapolis due to the recent outbreak of measles. He unfortunately continues to have fluid behind both of his ears, so PE tubes are likely in his future. We see the ENT physician and he has a hearing test again in 2 weeks, and the procedure will likely be later this month.

Henry can practically eat anything now that he has all 4 molars, and thankfully is not very picky about what we put down in front of him. He chewed on a raw carrot and cucumber earlier this week and didn't spit them out! He is not yet walking independently, but loves to crawl up the stairs and is obviously very pleased with himself when he reaches the top. He has also been spending a lot of time purposefully blinking both of his eyes and thinks it's hilarious when someone notices and blinks back.

  1. Wow! I can't believe how big Henry is now! I love it that he is playing with a stick in the second picture. For some reason (probably Max), sticks are Oliver's absolute favorite outdoor toy!
