Today you turn 13 months old. I am still telling people you just turned one, because it feels like yesterday.
You are quite the busy and active one year old. You walk, run, climb, and jump. Yes, you can (almost) jump. You dance like there is no tomorrow, and you just love life. You smile and talk to us all day long, and know when you are being silly.
You have learned what happens when we say "no" to you, and you will lay down and sob. So sad. You don't really ever listen to that "no" so we have our work cut out for us. You seem to like to do whatever you are not supposed to do...oh well!
You are sleeping great these days, but the long nap days are over. For a few weeks now you have decided that you want to keep your naps short and sweet...it was nice while it lasted! You still need two a day, but they are only about an hour. Your night sleep is still great! Go to sleep at 7:30 or 8 and get up at 6. Sometimes you may wake up and complain, but you quickly fall back asleep.
You still continue to eat everything we eat...and more. You eat every hour while you are awake...sometimes you will eat more than me! Your favorites are kale smoothies, eggs, peanut butter, nuts, berries, bananas, carrots, pasta, and yam pancakes. If you are full, and you don't want the food, you will just push it off the kitchen island. Oh boy. Big mess maker!
You love to read. You pick out your books from the shelf, bring them to us, and we sit and read. You also like to see what we are reading Gavin, but you DON'T like if HE is sitting in my lap! You will try to pull him off!
You are very much still a mama's boy, BUT you look for your dad all the time. In fact, "Dada" is your only word.
You are in size 4 diaper and 12/18mo clothes. Your feet are pretty big, size 5.5W.
You continue to nurse about 3 or 4 times a day. I am so happy that you still want this, and it makes you happy and satisfied. One day you will no longer want to nurse, and that will be fine with me. My goal was to make it to at least 12 months, so we made it. Whatever you decide to do from here, will be your call.
Its pretty hard to type while you are awake, so I have to go! You are getting into trouble! :)
