15 month update


I'm only two months late with Desmond's 15-month check-up, but I just haven't been motivated to blog since I post all of our photos on Facebook and Instagram. I'll try to keep up just so I can attach some dialog to my photos.

The night before Desmond's check-up he coughed a bit and then threw-up everywhere. I wasn't sure if it was related to anything, but when he did it again the next morning I knew something was up. Luckily I happened to be going in for a check-up that day, so we got to kill two birds with one stone.

Turns out he had 4 molars coming in and the doctor said that's probably why he wasn't feeling well. She prescribed jello. I love that, although I didn't have any so I had to make a quick trip to the store for some. 

He was feeling better by the next day and life returned to normal. He's getting quick a mouthful of teeth and I think he's been trying to bite. And not in a good way. When he gets mad he pulls my hand into his mouth, but then doesn't do anything. Obviously he picked up the habit from another kid who didn't explain what to do after the hand is in the mouth.

Desmond finally started walking after a week before. I thought it would never happen! All of a sudden he just started. The funny part was that he would get so excited that he was walking that he would start clapping and then topple over from losing his balance. He's so proud of himself! I have a video, I'll try to post it.

Here's his stats at 15 months:
Height - 32" (75%)
Weight - 23.5 lbs (32%)
Head - 72%

Still tall and skinny. He is actually sprouting up like crazy. He's now taller than a lot of kids that are way older. I wonder if Skyler was tall when he was young too. I think I was a shrimp.
