1 year, baby!

Baby boy! You are going to be one in just a few days! Wow!

Here are some updates and pictures from this past month!

You are now walking everywhere! You often giggle as you are walking because you are having so much fun! You walk with your hands high in the air for balance. It is so stinking cute!! You like to hold our hands and walk around but sometimes you pull your hand away because you want to do it by yourself. Kaelyn likes to catch you too... although sometimes she lets you fall on your face... we are still trying to figure out if she is doing it on purpose haha. She's cheeky. You have your fair share of tormenting her too... today you were stealing her special Grammy blanket and making her squeal. Then you just giggled and giggled! She would take it from you and then you would grab it out of her hands while shrieking in delight. You are going to be a trouble maker!! ;-)

You also started climbing the stairs this month. Uh oh... mama's gotta stay on her toes now! I went to the bathroom for a few minutes and left you in the living room. When I came out, you were half way up the stairs! I almost had a heart attack!

You have recently been waking 1-2 times a night and are hard to settle back down. You just really like to cuddle and are not a fan of sleeping by yourself! I think it is also because of all the teeth you have been popping through! You now have 4 teeth on top and 2 on bottom and I think the ones on either side of the front teeth will be through any day now!

You love to clap your hands while we say "Yaaaay!" This brings you great delight and always makes you giggle. You also stick your hands in the air when you have finished eating and say "DA!" which means "All done!"

You say "mama" and "dada" all the time now. Sometimes if you are brought in our bed in the middle of the night you will pop your head over the covers and say "DA!!!!" I mostly have to nurse you in your room now because you get too distracted in our bed and want to go hang out with your Dad at 2am!

I love your chubby little feet, toes, and little fat crinkles in your arms and hands! You are still a big boy and all boy! You are about 23-24 pounds.

You love to hit things and climb on top of things. You love to jump on the bed and when I am not looking you climb on top of the dishwasher and bounce on the door! You also love to be thrown on the bed and thrown up into the air! You are also already into EVERYTHING! You are quite the curious one!

You had your first hair cut this month! Mommy is not going to keep your hair because I have nowhere to put it... but I took a picture! You had a rat tail and a really long cow-lick... it was time!

You LOVE to play peek-a-boo! See the video below! :-)

We love you baby, Wee-um! We can't imagine our lives without you and love you so much!
