15 Months Old

Today Hallister is 15 months old. He is 30 inches tall and weighs 23.3 pounds. We can't really express in words the joy he brings into our lives, and those around him. He is so cheerful and loving, always wanting to wave to strangers, and has a smile on his face as he laughs and dances his way through the day. We are able to communicate with Hallister really well through sign language. He has already done the sign for diaper change before pooping in his diaper. Last week we were letting him roam the house in just a shirt so his bottom could dry out from diaper rash. He went into the bathroom, lifted up the toilet seat, and peed next to the toilet. Today, while in the bathtub, Hall did the sign for diaper change. I put him on his little potty and he peed! We are hoping it will be easy to potty train him before Baby #2 comes along. He still loves to be outside whenever he can. The highlight of Hallister's day today is that he gets to spend time with his Aunt Bekah before she returns to the Peace Corp.
