The Herrins from Scratch: Ava Jane: 15 Month Check-Up!

Our sweet Miss Ava J had her 15 month check-up today. It's hard to believe that she is 15 months old already!! Brent was home and tagged along with us so that was a treat. Here is a snapshot of Ava Jane at 15 months old:

on the go; extremely mobile (she's been walking since 10 months); daredevil; taking your eyes off of her for even a second is definitely not a good idea
loves to read-- especially wants Dada to read to her...
loves to be outside
is strong willed (imagine that...another strong willed girl to add to our fam)
loves to eat...like it's her favorite thing to do
eats her entire meal with a fork or spoon like a pro! It's really funny to watch...
has a milk allergy...today her pediatrician made the executive decision to remove ANY and ALL dairy products out of her diet. We had just been eliminating milk, cheese, and ice-cream...but she is pretty sure it's a general dairy allergy... boo :(
loves to dance... she even moves her hips from side to side and shimmies
is always smiling...is always happy unless she is hungry or tired
is starting to say lots of words
loves baby dolls
copies everything her big sister does
gives excellent hugs and kisses
ADORES clothes and shoes...she brings me MATCHING pairs of shoes to put on all the time and makes me change them a million times a day! She also loves accessories and hats too.
is extremely TALL...like 3-4 inches taller than the average 15 month old. We think we've kind of figured this equation out-- extremely tall, loves to dress up...she's totally going to be a supermodel, right? I kid...but you never know!!
is obsessed with Baxter...they are besties for life
And has blessed our family a billion gazillion times over in the 15 little months we have known her. I am blown away by God's grace in giving us another amazing little girl to experience this life with.

Overall, the check-up went great-- she is healthy and happy!! 34 inches > 95th percentile for height (and the dot was off the chart!!) and 24.4lbs (75th percentile) for weight! The doctor confirmed she was a busy bee. And as always...mommy and daddy confirmed she is 100% WONDERFUL to us just like her big sister!! (and sorry, I'm going to re-use some pics from last post...we've been too busy to get as many pictures as I would like lately....)
