wow. that flew by. i never understand what people meant when they said 'they grow up so fast' i felt like growing up took f o r e v e r. we have been sooo busy, and i feel like i have just been busy chasing baby e {which is such a good thing, i wouldn't have it any other way} so lets catch up as best we can
e is -
walking
basically running
trying so hard to talk
saying momma, mom, dad, dada, and papa
finally drinking out of a zippy
eating everything
such a ham
a giggly happy boy
a climber
a daredevil
very curious
still wearing some 9mo pants and 12mo tops
still fighting sleep {as i type this is happening}
i love when he wraps is arms around my neck and gives me a snuggle, usually very short and always on easton's terms but fantastic nonetheless. easton gives sloppy wet open mouth kisses, love those too. he is a copy cat, he will attempt to mimic almost everything you do. we are working on peek-a-boo. he understands a few signs - more, all done/finished, and eat. we are working on thank you, sorry {e started biting his little friends so i figured sorry would be an important sign} and no. i am pretty sure he has a clear grasp of what he should and shouldn't be doing and looks at you and shake his head no as he is reaching to do it. e's favorite foods are still sweet potatoes, oatmeal, and he LOVES yogurt. he is super attached lately, good to feel loved but would be nice to pee alone. all four top front teeth are coming in and he is teething like a champ if you ask me. he has started at the little gym and is learning so much from it.
easton is such wonderful boy. i love getting to know him and watching his personality develop. there is nothing better than being his mom, its hard, exhausting, and frustrating at times but all it takes is one smile and that infectious giggle and nothing else matters.
happy birthday
