Team Atchley: keller 15 months

so the whole reason i started "blogging" was to have a digital scrapbook of our lives, so i could remember all the cutest things keller does, and when he reached certain milestones etc. they really do grow up so fast and if you aren't writing things down, you forget so FAST! so here is what a typical day looks like for keller now, and what he is up to!

7:15-7:30: mommy and daddy wake keller up, he smiles really big at us and immediately points and names several things in his room...not always in this order, but always these things 1)"pete" (his pistol pete cape), 2) "pi-date" (his pirate) 3) "bear" 4) "bible" 5) "rain-doe" (the pull on his fan, it's a rainbow, it was here when we moved in, chris wants to change it to something more manly)

then we change his diaper, and get him dressed for the day and he points out his window.."birdies??" "quirles?" looks for birds and squirrels

we come down and eat oatmeal with yogurt and then he chugs a cup of milk. this kid loves milk. then he gets down to play. he knows exactly where is toy cabinet is and he promptly opens both doors and drags out allllll his toys. right now his favorites are his "too-box" and his "buckeys". toolbox and buckets. he also loves to read, and is always reading his "apple" book.

then we lay down for a nap from 9-11ish

from 11-1 we eat lunch (usually chicken, peas and carrots, bananas, etc) and of course more milk. then we play. another nap in the afternoon from 1-3:30 then we play until daddy gets home. dinner is the same as lunch. then bath time, read our bible, pray and go night night.

some of his favorite things are.....

daddy! he talks about him all day and RUNS to the door when he gets home
checking the mail :) he likes to open the mailbox
bath time he usually cries when it's time to get out
milk as previously mentioned, he chugs it...the kid can't get enough
sports our tv is generally on espn and he says "bak-e-ball" "foo-ball" "ball ball"
his video your baby can read, and it does WORK!

his vocabulary has EXPLODED in the last month. chris and i were trying to count all the words he says (that he actually knows what they mean) and we got to 70 and stopped counting. he loves to repeat whatever we say to him and catches on to new words so quickly. okay okay, this has been a long post here are some pictures to ease all the reading pain :)
