15 month Update

Lorelei is now 15 months old. She had her check up yesterday and she was 29 1/4 inches tall and weighed in at 21.5 lbs. She is in the less than 25% for both height and weight. Her pediatrician is very pleased with her developmental growth. Lorelei says about 35 words and is doing everything else age appropriate, except for eating. Her iron levels were a little low but thankfully better than they probably were a few weeks ago before we but her on vitamins and Carnation Instant Breakfast. We are still working on getting her to take more calories but it is difficult. Her doctor would like to see more growth in the next 3 months. No one minds her being small it is just the pattern of growth that they would like to see improve.
Lorelei is a laugh a minute and constantly amusing us! The pictures below were taken this morning during play time in her room. The picture of the rocking chair with her name on it is something a sweet older man made for her last year during all her medical struggles. I also forgot to mention that her beautiful dress from the professional pictures was one also made for Lorelei during that time as well. People have been so loving and generous over the past 15 months. We appreciate all the love and support from family and friends. Lorelei is truly a blessing from the Lord!

I love my rocking chair!

My cute rocking chair that was made especially for me!

Is it naptime yet?

Ahhh, me and my nine pacis, now I can sleep!

wow, 35 words. that's great. at 18 months aidyn says "bye-bye" and everything else is just a guess on our part. but she is eating really well now. we still do formula with her milk but she is fully capable of handling all foods now. can you post a video so we can hear lorelai talking?

Hey, we cannot figure out how to post a video, we worked on it for a long time the other day but can't figure it out, any suggestions?
