Wow buddy! You have quite the personality. You are showing a lot of stubbornness. For example, when you're eating and we ask you to sign "more" - you can do it, but sometimes you look at us like "I'm not going to do that mom". Or, when you don't get what you want and you throw your head back and cry - it is such a fit! Man, I can't believe what is to come if you're already throwing fits!
You also have the most sweetest smile! I still hear it all the time, how happy and smiley you are!
You now know how to blow kisses! You do such a good job at it! If you hear us say bye to someone you will quickly blow them a kiss. You clap a lot as well.
You are so strong with you legs! We keep thinking you're going to start walking soon...but I keep saying that you're too stubborn. You'll know how to way before you actually do! :) You have taken one step here or there but still not consistent. You really like to walk on your knees...it is so funny - you will just walk normal but on your knees! You cruise everywhere along furniture and you can stand in the middle of the floor unassisted. You started to almost stand up from the middle of the floor without holding on to anything!
We haven't found very many foods that you're not fond of. You don't do a good job with hamburger. But otherwise you pretty much eat everything.
I would write out your schedule with times - but you change it almost daily.....it's always pretty much around the same time but it varies. You do still do some bottles throughout the day and at night. You still want to nurse in the middle of the night but I've pretty much stopped letting you do that. Sometimes you win and I'll give in when we've been fussy ALL night long - but overall we are just doing bottles and regular food.
As for sleep you are still not a good sleeper. I'm not really sure why we have a crib for you to be honest! You might sleep an hour here or an hour there but for the most part you sleep in bed with your momma.
You started a new daycare this month. You are going to Kids Kingdom, which is your first daycare center. You have attached yourself to your head teacher, Becky. As long as she's there you're fine with being dropped off - but when she's not there you are very sad. You're adjusting pretty well. Except you miss your sister a lot - otherwise they seem to think you're doing pretty well.
Except for when you want to give us attitude....you are pretty consistent with signing "more" and "all done". When you have it a little bit more perfected we will start working on please and thank you :)
You are still wearing size 6 and 9 month clothing. 9 month shorts and some 6 month onesies. You are still in size 3 diapers.
You are so close to walking. You have had one step here or there but that's it. You can ALMOST go from sitting to standing - in the middle of the room! But no true walking by yourself yet. LOTS of cruising holding on to things.
You do love your cousin Ellie a lot! You two enjoy spending time together :)
Easton you play peek a boo all the time! You really like to do it when I'm on the computer - you will peek at me from behind it!
**This is your friend Maris Randolph, who lives in California, the two of you share a birthday**
You still are not the biggest fan of your sippy cup - but you're getting there. You do try to drink from our glasses at time - and you REALLY like to drink from Eliana's cup.
You still have NO teeth. You can tell the bottom of your gums are swollen and they could come - but I think they're still waiting to come.
You had your first true fever this past month. You were at 103.5 for three days!! You were so pitiful - just laying in my arms. I took you to the doctor the second day you had the fever - they found nothing wrong with you. After three days your fever finally broke and you had a small rash on your belly. When we went to camp, the lead guy in the band said you had roseola. He has triplets, and said that his girls when through the exact same thing. So there you go, it sounds like that's what you had - good think it only lasted three days!
You currently say: mama, dada, ba (for ball and bottle), and bampa (grandpa)
Easton, you are an amazingly little guy! I love your little gummy smile so much!
I can't wait to see what the next two months bring - and then we're going to celebrate your FIRST birthday!! :)
I love you little man!
Love,
Mommy
