Fifteen Months

This boy has made some big changes in the last three months. He has finally realized that walking is so much better to crawling and has the cutest little walk: belly shoved out with high stepping, turned out feet. 
He loves his Mama often calling, "Mom!", until Dad is around, then he doesn't want anything to do with me. He gets so excited on Sunday when he gets to be with Dad and it about breaks his heart when I have to take him. 
He loves my phone and sometimes even manages to take selfies with it. 
He loves to be tickled or have raspberries blown on his neck or belly. 
He tolerates Vivi most of the time but he is learning how to fight back and isn't afraid to give a good yank on her hair or a smack on the face. 
Asa "loves" animals he just doesn't know how to show that love. Josie is really good at avoiding him. He loves to growl at everyone and thinks it's so funny when Josie barks. 

He is getting good at emptying out drawers and cupboards which keeps him entertained but makes a big mess. I always forget how cluttered our house gets with a toddler. 
He always wants to be outside and gets so sad if his siblings go out without him. 
Balls are his favorite and he loves throwing them to us over and over again. 
Shoes are also a favorite and he wants to put them all on, even Tanner's that are more than half his size. I found him with this doll shoe on the other day; he was so happy to have it on. 
His older siblings are so good to him and help him to feel so special and included. This boy is so adored and loved.
