I can’t believe my baby turned 1 today!

I almost forgot to take pictures of him with the bear so don’t mind the messy shirt. This was probably the hardest photo shoot – maybe because he’s 1 and/or it was right after dinner. Who knows?

We saw Dr. Pete today and he said that E looks great! Here are his 12 month stats:

Height: 27.5″ (<3%)
Weight: 19lbs 3oz (6%)
Head: 45.0cm (15%)

Some new things E is doing this month:

• Can stand alone without support
• Will take steps to a desired item or person
• Will turn around to get down from the couch, my lap or a step
• Eats anything we let him
• Drinks whole milk
• LOVES holding electronic things – cell phones, remote controls. Gets mad when we take them away.
• Will get mad and grab his shirt and/or throw things
• Chases Pumpkin and likes to “pet” her
• Laughs when we tell him “No!”
• Still loves to read books. Especially likes books that have stuff to touch and feel
• Has two teeth on the top (and will sometimes grind his teeth)
• Still enjoys playing peek-a-boo

Joey suggested I continue to take pictures of E with the bear every month. What do you think?
