15 Months...

Where does the time go? I can't believe C is 15 months already. I am a little late posting this but better late than never ;) C is growing up so fast. He runs all over and wants to be right in the middle of everything. He isn't talking yet and that is concerning to me. B and E were talking up a storm by 15 months and C doesn't say much of anything. He has gotten really good at signing but I would like to hear him talk. I mentioned my concerns to the pediatrician and he was also concerned. C use to say mama and dada and no longer even says that...well until yesterday! His pediatrician said that he would rather be proactive about it and get him in to see a Audiologist to make sure he is hearing okay. He is also having a nurse from the school district come out and make sure that he is developing where he should be. The doctor wasn't worried but wanted to make sure that we weren't missing something. He said that we could just let it go and see how he is in a few months but he would rather not wait. Most kids don't start talking as early as B and E so C isn't behind for the normal range just behind for my range ;) C also competes with 2 older siblings and 6 other daycare kids during the day. This might all be a factor in his talking. We shall see. He sees the Audiologist on September 14th. He is growing perfectly. We no longer have to be concerned with him not gaining enough weight. He has caught up and is doing great. Here are his statistics compared to E (I misplaced B's information :( ):

E Height: 30 1/2" - 70%
Weight: 25lbs 9oz - 85%
Head: 18" - 50%

C Height: 31 1/4" - 56%
Weight: 25lbs 6oz - 63%
Head: 19 1/2 " - 96% (big brains ;)
