Dear Cole,
This month has been lots of fun, and you have changed so much!
- You are walking, and you're all over the place. We went to see your Brooks for Christmas, and he showed you all his tricks. You were taking a few steps while we were loading the car, and by the time we came home you were doing such a good job getting around on your own.
- You make noises for the cars and dinosaurs that you play with.
- You know what the question "Are you ready to eat?" means. You head straight for your highchair.
- You still love to eat- anything and everything. I think you may have an allergy/sensitivity to tomatoes. You getting really rosy cheeks, but it doesn't seem to bother you.
- In the afternoon when we get home from school, you love to sit on the couch next to Levi and drink your milk and eat your snack. You look around with this proud look on your face.
- You love to empty things out- your play kitchen, the dvds in the entertainment center, the bookshelf, the tupperware cabinet. You literally move from one thing to the next. It's frustrating and precious all at the same time.
- You are wearing size 4 diapers, and you're transitioning from your 12 month to 18 month clothes.
- You have figured out how to climb now. You got on top of our lego box the other day, and you were so proud!
- You still love to read books. The other day you were flipping the pages and "reading" out loud, and it made the teacher in me swell with pride. I love that you love to read.
- You love to walk around and drum/bang on the walls, chairs, boxes... You may follow in your Daddy's footsteps and become a drummer.
- You have two new molars on the top. Cutting these teeth was rough for both of us. You didn't sleep well, and when I'd go in to pick you up, you'd pat your cheeks and look at me with this pitiful little face.
- You and your brother have a love/hate relationship with playing together and sharing toys. I'm sure this is only the beginning...
- At the doctor this month, you weighed ___ lbs. and were ____ in. long.
- You are still wearing size 4 diapers and 12 month clothes (although you're probably ready to move up to the 18 month clothes).
