15 month checkup

Emma passed with flying colors.  She is now 23lbs and 31in tall...her weight is now in the 50th percentile and she was only at 14th in September!  The Dr. is quite impressed that Emma knows the difference between feeling hot and cold, not just knowing the words or associating the words with an object.  This "knowing" shows abstract thinking development that most children don't have until much later. The Dr. suggests we start working on feelings of happy, sad etc. since she is showings signs of advancement and that this may help us through the terrible 2's when frustrations relating to not being able to fully communicate begins.

As I type, Emma is working hard in her kitchen, reorganizing the pots, pans and pantry items...she likes an organized kitchen!
