The Age of Discovery

The age of 15 months is a time of constant exploration and discovery. We visited Como Conservatory last week and Henry could barely contain himself, literally running through the tropical room and the sunken garden. He loved watching the turtles and listening to the birds, but it was the water and the koi pond that really drew his excitement. Before I knew it he was elbow deep, smacking the fish with his chubby little fingers.
As part of the Saint Paul Winter Carnival, we visited the snow sculpture competition and snow maze. It was quite cold and at first Henry didn't seem too thrilled. Once he got to crawl around on some of the sculptures, however, it was a blast :)
The stats at 15 months:
Height 32 1/4 inches (80%)
Weight 23 lbs 5 ounces (25%)
Head 19 1/4 inches (90%)

Since Henry was sick and on antibiotics for 10 days, he experienced a drop in weight, but is feeling better and once again eating well so he should rebound. He also had two more shots and only has one more to go at 18 months and then he's done until Kindergarten. The doctor was also able to get a blood draw from him to do allergy testing since he had a negative reaction to peanut butter. We should know more in a couple of days. This was the first time anyone has been successful drawing blood from his tiny veins.
