The O'Neill Life: 15 months

What is Mr. Colin up to...everything! This little guy is all over the place and trying to master climbing. He has figured out that if he puts something in front of the couch he can get up himself. I have found him standing on top the ottoman. In attempt to sit on his little play chair he ends up on top of the table. He keeps me on my toes!

He loves baby dolls. After Mama and Papa, baby is his first word. Pronounced "babay". He loves on all of Whitney's baby dolls around the house. Carries them on his shoulder, giving them hugs and kisses. It is so cute. A little tough when a real baby is around because he wants to get on top of them and shower them with love too!

Poor guy just got over Croup. That barking seal I had always heard about slowly emerged over a few days. He handled it very well. Since we had to go to the doctor we got a weight update. 26.12 lbs. Big boy! We will find out his height next week at his well visit. Though according to Whitney's growth chart I think it is around 31" ( 2 inches shorter than W at this age)!

Along with walking at 13 1/2 months, he also started signing. Finally, after all these months he just broke them out like a pro. He signs more, eat, drink, all done, please and potty. It is great he communicate so well and he is very proud of it too.

Yes, I did say potty. I won't go into huge detail because I wrote a big post about it when I potty trained Whitney early. But I will say that I started him on the potty at 11 months, he goes in the potty more than he doesn't, I am hopeful he will be in underwear at 18 months like his big sis, and it is much more fun sitting there for a few minutes than wrestling with him when changing his diaper!

He still takes two naps which is awesome! The morning nap is about 1 hr 15 min. Then the afternoon is a good 2 hours. At night he sleeps 7:30pm-7am. He loves to sleep! Shout out to the amazing Baby Whisperer book for the gift of good sleep and early potty training!

He loves to swing on the new play set. He loves to dig in the dirt (and eat it too). He still LOVES to dance. It is so cute how he breaks out dancing anytime he hears music. He continues to woo us over with his charm and sweetness!
