Benton at 15 months

Benton had his 15 month check-up on Monday. He weighed 25.6 lbs and was 33 inches tall which put him in the 90% percentile for height and the 63% for weight. The doctor said that he looks good and that he is developing right on schedule :). He thought it was really fun at the doctors and he especially loved the sucker that Doctor Hom gave him when he was done. At 15 months Benton is so much fun. He is a little ball of energy and he loves cruising around the house exploring and trying to keep up with Jackson. Wherever Jackson is at, that is where Benton wants to be. I am so glad that Jackson treats Benton so well because I am sure that he misses his personal space a little bit. Benton has started to go up and down the stairs and he loves to play in the play room. He loves toys that he can pull or that he can put things into and pull things out of. He just recently started to fill up the back of his little airplane car with toys and drive it around the kitchen(something that he has learned from Jackson). He loves books and songs, and he loves to play wrestling and go on horse rides with his daddy. He also really loves driving the car(the real car) and the boat and he knows exactly what to do. Benton loves water and he loves to sneak into the bathroom and turn on the tub now that he knows how to stand on the stool. Benton also loves climbing up on things-everything in fact, I just hope he doesn't break something(an arm, leg, neck). We love our Benton so much and we are so thankful that he is such a healthy and happy little boy.
