Brissy is 15 months and full of personality

So every once in a while I go back and see what Brooklyn was doing at this time last year to see how much the girls are alike.  It absolutely amazes me how much I wrote that describes Bristol to a T now! They are so similar but so different at the same time.  Bristol's personality is really starting to shine.  She knows what she wants and knows how to get it.  She is becoming more independent and wants to do things that her brothers and sister are doing.  She is fairly outgoing and not afraid to wander off and play with other kids.  She is still a huge momma's girl (which I love) but isn't always afraid to leave my side and go to other people.

Recently we lost our sweet Grandma J and lots of family came to say good bye.  Many of these people Bristol..and Brooklyn...had never met.  Bristol wasn't afraid of anyone!  She let other people pick her up and she played with the other kids.  Brooklyn stuck close to our sides or to a close aunt or uncle.  She warmed up to her Uncle Mark pretty quick though!

Bristol is full of piss and vinegar for sure.  She gets into anything and everything she can.  She makes huge messes and laughs the whole time.  She loves to run wild around the house and is really starting to climb things.  She now uses the dog as a stool to get onto the couch.  She is sure to be my little spit fire drama queen!

Bris just had her 15 month well visit and is happy and healthy!  She weighs 26 lbs 12 ounces ( 97%tile and down a pound from 12 month check up).  31.5 inches long (85%tile).  Shes tall and chunky :)  Dr. Terwilliger said she was the perfect size...was on track developmentally and was in great health.  She was just on her first antibiotic ever this month as she had RSV and a nasty cold...She had to take a high dose of amoxicillin as well as a steriod and breathing treatments every 4 hours.  She handled it all like a champ!

So at 15 months Bristol:
* walks and runs wild all over the place
* loves to laugh and giggle
* says a ton of words momma, dadda, dog, zoey, sis, so-a (Sophia), Dora, Zach, Nana, Poppa, pop (lollipop and popsicle), fish, side (outside), jump, eyes, nose, mouth, and a ton more...she will repeat anything we ask her to say.
* still loves Dora and asks for it non-stop
* loves to hang out with Zach in his room
* loves to eat meat...pork chops, chicken, hot dog, turkey, and salami
* eats goldfish like its her job

* loves her sippy....and likes to have ahold of it while falling asleep
* likes to cuddle still
* can point out her eyes, nose, mouth, and ears
* loves shoes and loves to put them on
* hates socks and will not leave them on
