15 Months

Molly had her 15 month check-up today. Aunt Karen was tending her today and was nice enough to drive her in to the doctor and meet me. That saved me quite a bit of time, especially since I ended up staying at school until 5:30 anyway (phew!). Oh well. That's how the week before school goes, especially when we really only have 1 day to work in our classrooms.

Back to Molly . . .

Name: Molly

Age: 15 months

Height: 31.75 inches (86th percentile)

Weight: 23 lbs 2 oz (55th percentile)

Head Circumference: 48 cm (94th percentile)

Received 3 vaccinations

She passed all of the developmental questions and seemed to be doing just fine! Her ears are good. She can walk and say a few words, eats table foods (sort of), can follow simple commands, and interacts well socially. She cannot run.

Yesterday we went to an open house at the Day Care to orient the kids before they come back on Monday. I was worried that Molly wouldn't remember school and would be nervous about going, but I was totally wrong. She held out her arms and immediately wanted to go to her caretaker, Autum. Then, after playing in the toys for a while, she cried when we finally went to leave.

Good! . . . She will be fine on Monday.

Bad! . . . I guess she doesn't really need me.

House Update - Framing Continues

Our house is beginning to look more and more like a house everyday. The framers have been pretty busy.

There are interior walls up and it looks like they are close to starting the roof. We have a forest of 2 x 4's.

Our front porch has also been prepped to be poured.

You can see our hazy mountain view from our kitchen/nook window, as well as our neighbor's back yard (who expressed one day to us that they were glad they didn't actually put in a yard and fence before our house was built).

Pushing the Trash Can

Molly literally spent a good 15 minutes the other day pushing the office garbage can back and forth between it's regular location and the bedroom. Coo-coo!
