My little man is really becoming his own little person with his own amazing little personality. He is still such a sweet, happy, and lovable little guy. He's not quite as easy-going as he used to be but I think that's just due to his personality coming out. He wants to make sure he's not known as a push over :)
~he is cruising all around the house. He loves to walk on his own while pushing anything that will move with him....usually a chair, toy with wheels, boxes, etc.
~he can even stand alone momentarily.
~he has discovered the stairs! He was already two steps up one day before I even realized where he had gone.
~he loves to drink water from a sippy cup, a cup with a straw, and even out of a regular cup.
~he is still a pretty finicky eater. He doesn't like chunky textures but if I'm eating it, he has to have it, too. So that means he is now eating eggs, grilled cheese sandwiches, pb&j sandwiches, waffles, cereal, and more. As long as Savannah and I are eating something, he's eating it too.
~he babbles constantly! He probably has to in order to make sure he's heard over his sister.
~he has become very vocal when he doesn't get his way and he will actually become a little aggressive towards Savannah when she takes one of his toys. This means he will yell at her, jump on her, and probably pull her hair.
~he is very interested in other people his own size. There is one little boy about a month younger than Walker that he plays with every Wednesday while Savannah is in music class. Walker is constantly all over this poor little guy. Normally he is just trying to give him a hug and a kiss but because Walker to soooo much bigger it looks like he is squashing him.
~he can destroy my house in a matter of seconds but he also can help clean up. If he sees me putting toys into a bin then he loves to help out by putting everything into the same bin.
~for the most part he is sleeping through the night......ALLELUIA! Unfortunately he also wakes up a little too early--5:30ish....ugh!
~his nap schedule has been a little erratic. Some days he will take his normal 2 naps but other days he will take one really long nap and refuse to go down for another. I'm not so sure I'm ready for only one nap a day.
~he gives big, slobbery, open-mouthed kisses on demand. They are one of the the highlights of my day :)
~he has 2 top teeth and 3 on the bottom with one about to push through any day now.

~thankfully he has plateaued in the weight department. I think he still weighs about 29 pounds and he's still wearing 18-24 month clothing and size 5 diapers.
I hate to say it but I'm really not looking forward to next month even if it is "the most wonderful time of the year". I'm just one of those mama's that hates to see my babies growing up. If I could keep them both under the age of one forever, I most certainly would. That first baby year really is my favorite. There's just something about holding this little human that I made, that is totally dependent on me, that thinks I'm the greatest person in the world. Then add in all those yummy, squishy rolls and toothy grins and I just melt. I suppose I'll never get over my baby fever :)
Little man, I love you more than you'll ever know. Here's to a wonderful last baby month!
