15 Months and a Visit With Granddaddy

Lillian went for her 15 month check-up last week and our BIG girl is doing great! She is 24 pounds which puts her in the 75th percentile for weight and 33 inches tall which puts her off the chart for height. She has finally started to say "daddy" again which makes Brad extremely happy and over the past month has added the word "stop" to her vocabulary. Only my child would have less than five words total, but have that be one of them. She even knows the correct way to use it and manages to say it with the same frustrated tone that I use when I say it to her. The other night while I was trying to put on her pjs (for some reason, this can be very stressful) she looked me square in the eyes and said, "Stop Momma!". If we have this at 15 months old, I cannot imagine what we will be getting at 15 years old! :)
We went this week for Lillian's first haircut because I thought it was starting to take on a mullet shape. I decided to just spend a little more and take her to a children's "salon" that would know what to do with her hair and have lots of distractions to entertain her. All I can say is that she hated every minute of it and when they asked me if I wanted them to take a picture to commemorate the experience (apparently this is part of the "baby's first haircut" package), I wasted no time telling them it wouldn't be necessary. I will say that the cut looks pretty cute though!
Also last week, we went down to Pensacola to visit my dad. This was our first time to go that Lillian was old enough to go to the beach and actually play in the sand. She definitely enjoyed sitting on a towel and playing with the toys, but was not at all a fan of walking on the sand or having the sand get on her. Unfortunately, it was still pretty cool and windy so she didn't get to experience the full effect of a great day at the beach - guess that means we'll have to go back soon!
