15 Months & First Haircut!

Maverick is 15 months old!  Wow!  Where did the time go.  My little man is still a peanut, but has finally crested the 20 lb mark.  He came in at 21 lbs, 12 oz (15 %) and was 30.5" (35%) and has a big head at 47.5 cm (65%)  His curls in the back are getting quite long and I'm having to detangle them on a daily basis.  I guess this means it's finally time for a haircut!

Before (if they were stretched out they'd reach below his collar)



During.  He wasn't too sure about the process, but didn't cry.  

After.  He really doesn't look too drastically different.  I just wanted to trim the front so it would be out of his eyes, and the back a little bit.  He still has the curls, but just not as long.

Maverick had his check up and got a few booster shots on Monday.  The pediatrician said he hoped to see four words (currently only da-da) by 18 months.  This doesn't mean he is a quiet little boy at all.  he scream-talks in his own language and does make a barking sound for dogs....if that counts.  He has taken a few steps here and there, but isn't walking independently yet.  We are up to about 9 steps.  Maverick is definitely a good eater and can eat, eat, eat.  He hasn't developed a taste for pasta, pizza, and other "normal" things yet.  He LOVES cut up fruit, green beans, and most cereal.  I will probably finish weaning him soon, but for now, he nurses once a day and drinks whole milk at meals.  He takes one afternoon nap (when he's in his own crib!) and sleeps from about 7:30-7:30.  Maverick, I love you so much and it's so much fun watching you develop into a little boy.  What a blessing you are!
