Augie and I had fun this morning listening to some Bruno Mars and dancing in the kitchen. Aside from one mention of a sexy smile, "Just the Way You Are" was without a doubt written for a child. His smile and his laugh just light up our lives and we wouldn't change a thing. Especially how much he loves being spun around while you sing really loudly to him.
He's almost 14 months old now. I forgot to post his stats from his one year appointment -- he was 20 lbs 10 oz and 30.5 inches long. He was in the 70-75th percentile for everything. Everything was normal.
Since then, he has started talking a lot more to communicate. His words so far are mama, dada, hi, bye, cat, dog, ball, Nanaa, and then recently he's added "hat" and "bath" to his repertoire. With hats, he'll see a hat, say hat, then try to put it on his head. He kind of has a word for sock too, but not clear enough to count it. He tries to put socks and shoes on his feet. He loves to play with Nanaa, our hair, musical instruments, balls, and balloons. Just this evening, he was working really hard on standing independently. I think he had multiple 5 second stretches of standing. It's amazing how quickly he's growing and changing.
Here are a few favorites from recently:
 |
| Eating from chopsticks when dada got back from Beijing |
 |
| Climbing on the chair and putting his baseball in its place |
 |
| First sled ride with dada on the non-snow day snow day |
 |
| He gives the best cuddles in the morning |
 |
| He found the recycling and the (Brett promises) rinsed out beer bottle |
 |
| He got this amazing ball from his cousin Nora and LOVES it |
Dada comes up with the best games.
Rock climbing
Walking with dada is always an adventure
