Mia is 15th months old

Dear Mia,
Today you are 15th months old and you are like a sponge, it seems like you really understand what we are saying, even though you don’t say many words. Eating is an adventure some days you eat everything - others you only want chesses and crackers. We are trying to give you a well rounded meal with a couple things we know you will eat.
You love books; we’ve progressed to where you will let me read a page or two before flipping too fast for any words. Maybe I can truly read a book to you soon. You love you card set with animals too. I think those are your two favorite indoor activities now. You favorites books are: Tails by Matthew Van Fleet. http://www.amazon.com/Tails-Matthew-Van-Fleet/dp/0152167730
Baby Einstein Discover the Day http://www.amazon.com/Einstein-Discover-Lift-Flap-Sound/dp/141278655X/ref=pd_sim_b_5

We can finally say you are a true toddler since you started walking, it went from one to two steps very quickly to just walking. You don’t have your Frankenstein walk any more, is so amazing how you can just walk down the hall and turn into a room, you also starting to run too, I’m in a bit of shock about it actually.
You are still loving and happy and friendly - maybe a little shy in new situations but otherwise you seem to enjoy life fully and I hope that is a trend throughout your life.
When we ask you where your ears, nose, eyes and head are you will point to them (or pat your head). You are learning belly now; you give kisses, hugs, fives, wave bye bye and dancing when we ask you to. I've also noticed that when we give you simple commands like "go get the ball”, “press the button" “trash the garbage” or “give this to Daddy” you will respond appropriately.
You are climbing up on things like the table and the chairs of your table set that we got you at IKEA. You are not climbing on the couch yet, but its coming.
You know how to do a fish mouth and like a bird with your hand and you recognized the sound of a plane.

And one last note, this month has brought a new teeth you cutting your top left one.
