Today was Caiden's doctor appointment for his 15 month check-up. He is 22lbs 2oz which is the 15th percentile. This is a good jump! His length/height is 31" which is the 50 percentile- again this is a jump up from his 12 month appointment. His noggin is still big at 19.24" or 90 percentile. Here are some of his latest accomplishments:
- walks well, is close to running. also walks sideways :) and has walked backwards a few times
-"helps" around the house- he like for me to hand him the clothes from the washer and he puts them in the dryer
- can scribble
-points at a desired object
-drinks from a straw or sippy cup
-can use a spoon and sometimes keep the food on it
- he has 5 signs: more, please, thank you, eat and milk
-can point to his head and mouth when asked
-understands simple commands
-can crawl up stairs, but prefers to walk up them alternating feet (holding our hands)
-is starting to kick a ball
These are the major milestones that the pediatrician was looking for at his check-up. We talked a little about his talking- and even though he doesn't really have any "words" yet, she considers the sign language to be his communication and is not concerned.
