It's been a while since I have updated your general day-to-day life my little man.
1) You have given up afternoon naps :( It was bound to happen and happen it did, but it's always a tad hard on the momma when it does. So now you nap once a day usually around 11AM and for about 2 hours or more.
2) You still are SUPER picky in the food department. You are a strange, strange little eater. You pretty much have to be force fed the first bit or two and then you will eat a small range of foods - applesauce, soups, yogurt. You will feed yourself rice, cheesy eggs (finally!!), sausage, toast with jelly, apples, and pancakes. You still prefer an adult glass with a straw over a sippy cup, and you still love my vegetable and fruit protein shakes. It's still tough going.......
3) You still are a tricky sleeper at night. You did pretty darn from from about 10 months to about Christmas time, and then all your molars starting coming in and it was shot to heck. :(( So you wake about once a night right now even if we give you homeopathic teething stuff. And your daddy hattttes to hear you cry so there is no "cry it out" happening right now.
4) You still love stuffed animals and fuzzy blankets and cuddle and lay on them when you get the chance. It's so adorable. And your older siblings didn't really do this.
5) You still LOVE to be outside. We finally got smart and realized if we keep the backdoor propped open you are a very happy camper. You now come and go as you please. At first it was 80% outside and 20% in, but now that you are used to your freedom it's about 50/50. PS - your college fund is going to heating and cooling the house - thought you should know. :)
6) You are soooooo adventurous. It's a bit scary. Ok so it scares the living crap out of your dad and I. You love to climb ladders, chairs, stools. You love to throw rocks, blocks, and hit with swords. You love to shoot nerf guns (by that we are very impressed), fly toy helicopters, and create wads of wet toilet paper art on the walls. You are a crazy dare devil little mischief maker - without an evil bone in your body. We love you for it.
7) You HATE having your diaper changed. Very different from the infant who used to love it.
8) You are on a new homemade formula - the Weston A. Price Formula which is made from raw milk and other awesome vitamins and oils and you are doing great on it!
9) You grow out of shoes so fast it's craziness and I am SO thankful for hand-me-downs.
10) Your new fav food is frozen raspberries and fresh blueberries.
11) Your fav toy of the moment is the nerf gun you can actually shoot (we help cock it). It's hysterical to watch you run around shooting people.
12) You dislike baby songs. I found this out by watching your face as I changed back and forth between my music and my "kid" music. It was boredom to dance party and back again. HYSTERICAL!
13) You still are in deep love with your dad. Head over heels, only one for you, soul mate kinda love.
14) You are amazing. And we love you madly.
xoxo
