Health stats: No doc appointments this month but he has been doing really well! Haven't had any more issues since the ear infection thank goodness.
Sleep: HALLELUJAH! I can finally say something good in this category :) My almost-one-year-old is finally sleeping through the night! I actually feel comfortable saying that because it has been 2 or 3 weeks. Napping is another story but at this point I'll just take the 12 hours at night and run with it.
Clothes: Still wearing some 6-12 but everything new I am buying him I am getting 12-18.
Milestones: First Halloween! We carved a pumpkin together and he wore 4 different costumes! (completely ridiculous I realize this)
A teddy bear on Halloween night (this is the costume that Chad wore when he was little). This was also his first ride in the wagon which he loves.
Clown--this was Todd's baby costume.
Mickey Mouse…best photo I could get because he HATED having things on his hands and was freaking out.
Lion! He went to Dad's work for a little Halloween event they do for families every year.
He went on his SECOND plane ride…this time home to Salem to see Nana and Granny and Poppy and aunt Janis and so I could go to my friend Jamie's "sprinkle" for her 2nd baby due in Dec.
Hanging out with Molly at Target
Meeting my friend Mary's little girl Cameron for the first time…love at first sight, obviously
Cuties!
Hanging out with poppy
Playing "this little piggy" with granny
First trip to the DipDog stand
He was awesome at the airport
and actually fell asleep on the last flight! So rare for him to fall asleep like that I had to take a selfie.
We also got to go see my friend Lisa and her kids while we were home which was really fun. We packed a lot into a few days!
He also met his great grandfather on Todd's side this month.
Likes: He loves cruising around the couch and coffee table, music, eating (he is eating 3 meals a day now), going for walks, hanging out with other babies at the library and baby class, books, being outside, chasing the doggies. He is OBSESSED with devices, iPad, iPhone, remote control, baby monitor, TV, etc. I still don't really let him have these things yet but if he spies one he is on it in 2 seconds and I can no longer watch the Today show because he will just stand at the coffee table and stare at the TV all morning.
He also enjoys pointing out how bad we are at baby proofing.
He is a pretty good eater but he is over being spoon fed and only wants things he can pick up or take bites out of. I am giving him "smoothies" so I can sneak in some spinach and he will still eat pouches. He eats yogurt, pears, bananas, apples, berries, sweet potatoes, carrots, english muffins, peanut butter, waffles, mandarin oranges, cheese sticks, some noodles, pouches, cheerios, avocados.
Dislikes: napping, long rides in the car, having something covering his hands, putting toys away at clean up time.
Can't believe next post will be 1 year!!!!
