Rowe turned thirteen months old this week. This has been a wonderfully wild thirteen months for us all. Our BIG, little boy has been such a blessing to us each and everyday.
He has changed so much since his first birthday already. He walks or runs most everywhere he goes. He loves his daddy way more than he loves me. I cry sometimes, because it is so obvious. When I rock him, he is looking out the door for his daddy. When he falls and hurts himself he cries and reaches for his daddy. Once Lee holds him, he is fine. When we are at home, and he hears the door open, he takes off to the door, singing "daddy, daddy, daddy." People say it is phase, but it has lasted a while to just be a phase.
His favorite word is still uh-oh. He says every time anyone drops something, when he burps, or sometimes when he sees us pick up the sad stick (wooden spoon). He sometimes picks up the sad spoon and shakes it us saying, "No, No, No." It sounds more like, "Bo, Bo, Bo." He says "Mama" now, but not near as much as "Daddy." He loves sleeping on a pillow and with his lovie. He loves animals, and has gotten really fast when chasing Missy. Needless to say, she has gotten fast too.
His favorite snack is still shoes. We are trying to break him of it, but it's no use. His favorite foods are blueberry waffles, pancakes, scrambled eggs, oatmeal, quesadillas, bananas, yogurt, yogurt melts, graham crackers, sweet potatoes, hamburgers (no bun), rolls, baked fries, and any of his baby food. We are trying to wean him off of baby food, but it has been difficult. He still loves it so much! Most of his diet is organic. He loves his milk and water to drink. He still does not eat sweets or junk food yet.
Some of his favorite toys are anything with wheels, his ball popper, balls, mega blocks, walker, shoes of all kinds and flavors, books of all kinds and flavors, play table (set to Spanish only), and any musical instruments. He loves to sing and dance. His favorite thing is to throw balls on our floor and watch them roll and bounce. He laughs so loud every time he throws one. He also likes to throw them back and forth with Lee or me. He thinks it is hilarious. I need to get it on video!
Within seconds of us putting him into his car seat, he has taken off his shoes and socks. He would strip down naked all the time if we let him. He loves his bare feet! He tries to suck on his toes, but his fat belly doesn't always permit it.
He hast he cutest cowlick on the top of his head where it is growing in. I love it! I'll post pictures soon!
He has been sick a lot this month, but I think he is finally starting to feel better. He has slept all night for a few nights in a row and he drank four ounces of milk this yesterday. He hasn't done either of these things in a couple of weeks. Thanks for all the prayers that he would feel better! Now I have got to start feeling better.
Fun with Mom!
