- Troy got all four of his top teeth at the same time (around 13 months)! He now has a total of 6 teeth. He took it like a champ and it didn't even mess with his sleep.
- Around 14 months old, he started to toy with the idea of going down to one nap. We still haven't mastered that and day sleep is more unpredictable than ever. I will not complain as his night sleep is much better than my own!
- Loves to repeat sounds and we're trying hard to learn words. Some favorite phrases are:
- Diga Diga
- Ami Ami
- Mommy
- Dada
- Vroom Vroom
- Mooooo
- Oink (but it's really a snort)
- a plane noise
- Around 14 months we taught him "so big"! This was something I used to do all the time as a baby around the dinner table. Troy caught on very quickly and this is often one thing we can use to distract him - which is not an easy task.
- He gives kisses when you tell him you love him.
- He gives kisses when you don't even ask.
- Veggies have become a challenge, but we hide them in pasta, sandwiches, and make yummy fruit/veggie smoothies.
- I love the fact that he recognizes many of our family members now. He greets them warmly :)
- He waves goodbye when we leave (and sometimes cries).
- He LOVES to wear daddy's socks. They come all the way up his legs, but he thinks it's great.
- He is a little Mel DeMarcos. He has four pairs of his own summer shoes, but he also insists that everyone else wear their shoes. He's quick to point them out if you take them off. His favorite pair currently is his blue crocs.
- He gives out the biggest smiles from his crib - and for this very reason I look forward to getting up in the morning, even if it is early!
Checking out the new baby gate and wondering why he can't climb the stairs as usual. Luckily for him, it put a hole in the wall on day two and we no longer use it!
Trying out the old school rocking chair.
One of the many times he's sported daddy's shoes.
