Rogan

Rogan had his 15 month well baby check up today.  We were actually about a month and a half behind.  We have all been sick off and on and I wanted to make the little guy was 100% before getting his shots.  We had a slight concern because he is not walking yet.  He stands alone and will walk if he can hold onto your finger.  So, he is fully capable just not confident.  Dr. Exon said it sounds like he needs a motivational speaker to get started.  He was not concerned about him not walking.  He stated many kids do not walk until they are 18 months old.  So we may have another month or two of this crawling stuff.  He's so fast on his hands and knees I think he feels he can keep up with his big brother easier on all fours.

Other than that, he was perfect.  He is up to 25 lbs 6 oz and is 32 1/4 inches long.  The 65th and 75th percentiles.  He eats well and is less picky than his big brother.  He's a climber and we're pretty sure the Christmas tree is going to be an issue this year.  He weaned off of his bottle without a fuss and took right to a sippy.  Neither of my boys took to pacifiers so we didn't have to mess with those.  We're working on drinking from a cup without spilling too much and using utensils.  He is even brushing his own teeth.

Rogan is all smiles and personality.  Gotta love those dimples!

so cute - Maelynn didn't walk until right around 16 months - she was the same way - she crawled so dang fast, she said forget this walking stuff! Pretty much as soon as she started walking she could run because she could do it physically - just wouldn't because she crawled faster. Funny how kids are!!
