15 Months Old

Today Will is 15 months old, but I didn't think about taking pictures until he was heading to bed (without a bath), so maybe we'll try for some later this week. Will's mom is stressed beyond belief at work right now, so not a lot of time at home for pictures. But, I did come home early on Friday and met the guys at the park by the train station, because it looked cooler than the one by our house. It was! In addition to this train that was fun to climb on, we got to stop and point at the REAL trains that went by every so often. And the slide was much slicker, so Will flew down! And he was ok with that!

Swings were fun, too. He grabbed the sunscreen out of his bag and enjoyed carrying it around the playground. After playing, we rounded out a great Friday night with pizza and watermelon for dinner! Lots of fun for the whole family!

This month has been one of our best (absent the work interruptions)! We have been out for Sunday brunch twice where Will has been a great guest. We even got a lovely compliment from a woman today that "you wouldn't even know he was there" he was so nicely behaved. We've also tried to start a tradition of Sunday afternoon family swims at the health club. We missed today, but I sure hope we go next week. My dad used to take me and my brother to the YMCA on Sundays when we were kids.

Communication is really improving. Will can shake his head "yes" and "no," and he's very good about pointing out what he wants and knowing where to find things to just show us what he wants. He's still not saying many words that we understand, but he says a lot of things, and he understands a ton! He's very familiar with our routines and the words/actions in daily life. He's also very silly and loves to giggle. We love that, too!
