John Brantley is 15 months old today. He is changing every day and learning new
stuff. I am so fortunate to be able to
stay at home with him and watch him grow.
Yesterday we went to the doctor for his 15 month checkup and
shots. Today he has been running around
101 fever all day. I am hoping it’s from
the shots and he’s not coming down with something.
Always on the go….
(I know you love those towels in my chairs in the
background).
John Brantley Facts:
Diapers: Luvs size 3
Shoe Size: 3 or 4
Teeth: 9, but it looks like #10 is coming in very soon
Bed time: Anywhere from 7:00-8:00
Naps: He still takes 2 naps; one in the morning about 2 hours after he gets up and another about 1:00. He sleeps anywhere from 1 ½ to 2 hours at each nap.
Mornings: He wakes up anywhere from 6:15 to 7:15
Talking: Not much. He can very clearly say “bye bye” and will wave to you. He can say da-da, Momma, De-ta (Delta). He has made the “F” sound for Ford, and ba-ba for ball. Other than that he says “Daaaa” and points to things, or just squeals until you understand what he wants. Although he can’t talk much he communicates quite well and understands about 90% of what I say to him.

Although he can’t talk much he communicates quite well and understands about 90% of what I say to him.
Likes: animals, milk, Ford, balls, Delta, outside, the battery powered tractor, sprinklers, the sandbox, popsicles, drinks, swimming, bath time, sweets, mowing the yard with Daddy, trains, pictures of animals, feeding himself, rocking before naps and bedtime, and waving to people.
Dislikes: changing his diaper, shots, putting on clothes,
coming inside after playing outside, when the tractor battery dies, the nursery
at church, most food, sharing toys with Ford, and getting out of the bath tub.
Food: Being that he
is in the 5th percentile, he doesn't eat too much food. He will, however, eat shredded cheese, French
fries, ice cream, chicken, peas (sometimes), pizza, granola bars, squeeze fruit
and vegetables packs, rice, spaghetti, noodles, junk food, anything sweet, BBQ, sausage muffins, and cereal.
Pitching a fit…
John Brantley doesn't sleep in our bed and never has. He loves his bed and the two stuffed animals
in there.
Ford got this John Deere tractor for his second
birthday. He has loved tractors as long
as I can remember and we knew he would love this. We were right. Well, for Christmas he got a 4-wheeler which
has taken the place of the tractor. John
Brantley has quickly learned to operate it and cruises through the yard
daily. He can’t steer yet, but he knows
how to make it go. Therefore, I get to
walk beside him and guide his way.
He never drinks out of a bottle, but Ford thought he needed
one today.
The nightly entertainment while I tried to fix supper. And Trey wonders why I don’t cook fancy 5
course meals!
You know I probably shouldn't rock this little guy to sleep
every time, but he’s so stinking cute and is growing up so fast that I can’t
help it. He MUST have his sack before he
goes to bed. (That is a sleep sack that
he used to sleep in during the winter.
Now he cuddles with it).
Happy 15 months to our precious baby, Bitty!!!!
