13 Months..... I Have a Toddler!!!

I am not sure I will keep up with the monthly updates from now on. In my head, I have thought that I would  start blogging more often(as things happen) and about other things. Wait... who am I kidding I barely get the monthly blog finished and my world revolves around Easton ; it's the thought that counts. Moving on to that baby who occupies my whole life, in a good way of course!

Easton's 12 month checkup was several weeks after his birthday but here are his stats:

Weight-22lbs 11oz- 50th percentile

Heightt- 31 and 1/2 inches- 90th percentile

The doctor said he is a very happy, healthy, spoiled baby boy (I added that last part).

Milestones:

• He is walking everywhere now. So far it hasn't been too bad . The only difference in walking than crawling is that he can reach higher, which means he can get into more things. We finally got a gate for our steps so that has helped a ton. I know it will get worse when he learns to run.

• He has learned two new words which puts him at 5 total, well he has said bye bye once or twice but not enough for me to count. His new favorite word is mine but it comes out my. I will credit either his uncle Jason  or the kids at his babysitter for this word. Probably the latter but his uncle Jason is still a bad influence ;). The other word I haven't quite deciphered but I believe it is That or There. There is an app on my phone that shows animals and they make animal sounds. I have noticed the past couple of days that every time they show the horse and cow he says that mystery word. It has me baffled but maybe soon I will figure it out.

• He has learned to dance and this is by far the funniest thing I have ever seen him do. The poor baby has no rhythm what so ever. It is more of a head bang than anything. He does take after both his parents on this one.

• I have tried to figure up how many words he can recognize and I know it's at least 20 but it is probably alot more than that.

All in all he is doing wonderfully. It still amazes me how fast he is growing but I am enjoying every step of the process.

His new favorite thing is climbing. Especially into things as
 you can see in the two previous pictures.

Here he is climbing under the table at the doctors office. 
 I think he was trying to hide so he wouldn't have
 to get shots.

He is reading!!! Well not actually reading but I am so
 excited that he is showing interest in books now.
I was worried for a while.
