This time next month we will be celebrating you first birthday!
It's hard to believe we'll be ready for a party in the new house a month from now, but you know how I like a good, stress-ridden challenge (if you're not familiar with this trait of mine, just ask Dad) :)

Last month got so busy that a 10 month post slipped by, so I've got a lot of new news for you!
You are growing so much and becoming such an engaged, happy boy. I am so proud of you and can't wait to celebrate your first birthday next month.
Love you!

- Since spending time together in Cali, you've become a HUGE Mamma's boy. I love how cuddly you've been, but with you and Abigail both being big Mom fans, it becomes a little exhausting (although your sweet attention makes it hard to complain)
- We've plateaued at 6 teeth (none since 8 months), but with lots of chewing and drooling, I think we have another round coming soon
- You've started taking your first steps. You can walk about 3-5 steps at a time and take such pride in each one.
- You love pulling up on Sissy to walk with her. This has ended badly more than once.
- Sleeping from 6:30pm-6:30am with a waking to feed around 2-4am
- You started waving last month and love attracting the attention of strangers
- Tons of bababa and dadada's, but not related to identifying objects yet
- Your green teether is my go-to for keeping you busy
- You destroyed my sunglasses this morning in the gravel, so I bought you your own today and you love them
- You and Sissy love yelling together in the car. You trade off matching pitch and length of yells. It's Ibuprofen worthy but so sweet
- Favorite foods: blueberries (tis the season!), nectarines, avocado, peanut butter toast, and baby puffs (the big ones that look like Cheetos Puffs are your favorite)
- I bought you your first pair of shoes last week: size 5 (!!) and I'd bet by this winter you pass Abigail in shoe size.
- You fell on the corner of the fireplace last month and looked like a boxer for a few days. Bumps and bruises are very common right now.
- You love to dance and clap in time to music. Grandma is sure you'll be a professional musician some day ;)
You are growing so much and becoming such an engaged, happy boy. I am so proud of you and can't wait to celebrate your first birthday next month.
Love you!
Mom
