Bug's first birthday party was today. I love that little guy, he is totally my buddy. Here are some fun facts about Bug at the age of one:
He babbles all of the time. He says uh-oh and got it. Usually when he says uh-oh it's because he threw something on the floor on purpose.
He is starting to walk. He is really steady on his feet but he isn't very brave about walking across the room just yet. Usually if you don't hold his hands he sits down and chooses to crawl instead.
He loves crawling up the stairs, but he's pretty good about waiting at the bottom of the stairs so you can follow him up.
Bug is really into taking objects out of a container and then putting them all back in. Over and over again, he gets frustrated when things don't fit like they are supposed to.
He loves cabinets and drawers and pulling everything out of them, but he also loves to hide new things in them. Often I look in my pan drawer and find spoons, snacks, etc. in there from him. Love my surprises. :)
He gets so excited to nurse first thing in the morning that he does this adorable giggle. I absolutely love it, it will be the hardest part about weaning for me.
He adores his big sister. She can make all sorts of funny noises and he just laughs and laughs. He also likes Grandpa M's zorbits.
He does this squinty eyed smile because he thinks you can't see him when he does it. It is absolutely adorable. So stinking cute!
Bug loves to eat. Anything and everything, pretty much. He inhales food, but he still is a little guy at around 30% for both height and weight (at least since the last drs appt).
He loves playing with socks and shoes. Almost instantly he pulls them off when we get in the car.
When anyone reaches to grab him away from me, he almost always "teases" them by turning away from them and into my arm. I love that he loves me, because I love him so much!
Lately he has been getting up in the middle of the night, and while his daddy wants to just let him cry in the crib, I can't because my favorite times are cuddling with him in bed while he gives me the cutest grins and coos and snuggles. We cuddled for something like four hours last night (the night before his birthday party) before I handed him off to his daddy for food and going back to bed because I couldn't get enough of his cuteness!
