True*Lu: Leland: 15 months

Talking a tinsy bit more. Understanding a lot more. And always staring intently at us while we talk. A silly, goofy kid, who will so readily follow Jude. He's quick to laugh, and quick to dance. He is a great mimmicker and if Jude's being tickled, he'll lay down to be tickled too. If Jude's being chased, Leland is too. He's loving to put things into other things. He's loving climbing in drawers, on the couch, on the side table, on the fireplace, on the bathroom stool. He loves being twirled, bounced, or flipped. He loves to hit, which I think he learned from his brother--he thinks its funny, until it happens to him. But, sometimes he's gentle about it. He has a great arm, and will throw anything and then say, "thoooooo". He says choo-choo, Mama, Dada, Juuuuu, Th-un-tho (Juno), buh-bye, no, and... some other words. He takes a tiny nap in the morning, and then a 2 hour nap in the afternoon. All around, an easy little guy. And I feel a mischievious streak coming on. It's all in his innocent eyebrow flick that he's done since he was born, and the way he holds his smile when he's in trouble. He holds it long enough that you really can't help but smile back. Forester charmer for sure.
