Brady,
You are now officially an army crawler. You can get from point A to B in about 5 seconds flat. We are definitely starting to baby proof and had to put the baby gate up. You are putting EVERYTHING, and I mean EVERYTHING into your mouth including all of Owen's toys, which we are constantly taking the little parts away from you. You want to be where the action is and don't want to miss a thing!
Last week I took you to the Dr. because you had been having a runny nose and then started running a fever. I found out you had a nasty sinus infection and you are now on antibiotics for it. You hate taking your antibiotic and have thrown up mucus a few times. Poor pumpkin. You have been so snotty and are having a hard time sleeping because you can't breathe through your nose!
You are still learning new ways to make your voice heard. You are starting to blow raspberries as loud as you can and are still doing your high pitched opera singer voice. We think that voice is hilarious and is definitely your trademark. Your other thing you have started doing is grunting if you need to poop. It is hilarious!
This month, you learned how to sit all by yourself with no support! You are becoming such a big boy! You still would rather crawl around and don't want to be stationary for very long but you look so big sitting there with no help at all.
We are still working with you on taking a bottle, but you still hate them. So, we started introducing soft spout sippy cups, and I think you like those a lot better. So, here's to hoping that you will take one now and again for your last feeding. We will keep working with you and I really think you will get it soon. You are still breastfeeding 5 times a day and eating 3 meals a day. You have also graduated to the high chair!
Mimi came to our house to celebrate Christmas with us since we will be celebrating Christmas day with mommy's family. You were very sick that day, but you love your presents you got and Owen loves his too!
You are pretty consistently going to bed between 7-7:30pm and are waking up around 7ish. You are starting to sleep through the night without waking up more, although you have kept mommy up a lot this week because you weren't feeling well. I have enjoyed the extra snuggles.
We didn't weigh or measure you this month, but you are big. You are in 12 month clothing because you are sooooo long my boy!
We love you to the moon and back "big and tall".
