Tommy is a busy bee lately! He loves his puzzles, books and chatting away about whatever he sees. Mike and I understand very little of it, but it still thrilling to hear. Tommy did get his first post-tubes ear infection which was a bad one. Because he has tubes, all of the fluid can drain out, but now that we've see how MUCH drains out, I can't imagine how uncomfortable he was before when all of that fluid was behind his eardrum. Poor guy! But he's a trooper and coming through it pretty well. Tommy had his 15 month appointment last week - and he's dropped to 40th percentile for weight, up to 60th percentile for height, and yes, his head is still topping the charts at 97th percentile! We had our first non-familyorfriend-babysitter last week that we actually had to pay. What an adjustment for me - I still see myself as the babysitter, not the mom hiring a babysitter, but all went well! Here are a few cute photos from the last week or so. Tommy and Daddy have a good time wrestling, and Tommy is clearly winning in this picture.
Tommy also likes to play with a puzzle with doors on it where he can hide pieces behind doors - and here is his "where is it?" face - I laughed so hard, which only encouraged him.
And, last but not least, doesn't everyone take a picture like this at some point? It's hard to resist. Tommy loves tubby time, but not hair washing time.
