Bruiser


For a while there, Isaac was on the lightweight side and seemed reluctant to even try walking. Now, watch out! He's weighing in at about 25 pounds (60th percentile at his 15-month visit and enough to make my back sore every night!) and starting to show us his adventurous side. He is so much more physical and aggressive than Amelia was at this age: climbing on everything, bellyflopping on our bed and other furniture, hurtling himself into tables and walls. Isaac has a new bruise every week, it seems. And the dreaded pushing and hitting has started already. Oh, give me the strength to parent a toddler boy!!

Oh me too! Parenting a toddler (or even a - gasp! - preschooler boy) seems FAR different than parenting a girl at this age... I'm sure you're up for it, it'll just be a real change of pace for you. By the way, would you like to adopt Luke? :)
