It's true, in one short month our baby will be 1!
[He feels the same about it as I do]
He's even starting to look more like a little boy
& less like a baby...
This was a big month for the CamMan.
He is Crawling,
pulling up,
walking everywhere
[with assistance of walls, furniture, fingers, etc. ],
loves to play "chase",
has 3 teeth
[3 more on the way],
played in the snow for the first time,
went to the hospital for the first time since birth,
& had blood drawn.
This monster LOVES to eat.
So much so that his first real word other than the standard Dadda, Mamma, bye bye...
is hotdog. He thinks it's two words though... hot dog.
The [hopefully temporary] gluten/dairy free diet hasn't slowed him down.
The only thing we struggle with is fruit.
He can't have apples or bananas for now.
He loves watermelon but it gives him diaper rash.
Sometimes he likes peaches, pears & blueberries...
sometimes not.
And grapes & mandarin oranges are immediately tossed on the floor.
Here he is showing you how the cool kids do it...
The mean kid way...
I guess he didn't want to eat pears?!
And his new favorite,
the super messy way.
We are thankful for Zoe, who happily cleans up after him.
Don't you think he is just going to love cake?!
Fingers crossed his skin testing comes back negative
just like all the blood work did!
This is probably my favorite stage so far.
I know I say this practically everyday, but really it is.
I love seeing him become independent.
He is so proud of himself when he learns new things.
He'll even clap for himself :)
My very favorite part though, is that he is a cuddle bug again!
