13 months and counting...

So to start off, I've been so behind. I took Eli's 1 yr pix like 3 wks after his first birthday and now I'm just posting his 13 month stats. But in all fairness my photography has really been taking off. I'm overly obsessed with it and want every detail. So yes, I'm horrible. But hey better late than never. So to start Eli here's your adorable 1 yr pictures. We did a few fun props because you are just a fun kid. You did great and I want to blow up every picture and put them all around the house :) But I think I'm gonna make you a book and blow up a few and put it up in your room. How cute would that be :) So here ya go buddy...

My sweet Eli. I still can't believe your now 13 months. I felt like time flew when you turned 6 months, but man it's flier by even quicker now that you turned One. You are becoming such a toddler. I love seeing your personality. Your a goof, and lately you watch people and will copy what ever they're doing. Especially when people laugh. You love imitating people. And your such a ham. You love getting peoples attention of the all mighty, great Eli :) But I could watch you for hours.

So lets see....

*I counted your teeth you have 12 and 3 coming in. And boy have you been clingy to mommy. 

*Your still nursing 3x a day. Sometimes only twice, but with your teeth your doing 3x a day.

*You are the best eater. I must say I give myself credit for that :) We never did many purees with you starting with early on allowing you feed to yourself. So I think that has a lot to do with it. Or at least I like to think :)

*Your a pro with straws now. And have no problem drinking from your straw sippie. 

*You sleep so good bud. From 8-930...

*You say...nahla, ollie (<--doggie names), mama, dada, bah is for max

*You are in size 4 diapers still 

*Your clothes are between 18-24 months and your starting to thin out, which makes this mama a lil sad :(

*You do so good w.others when mama isn't around...but when i'm near your not to sure of strangers, lil booger :)

*Your absolutely obsessed with water and I can't wait to take you the water park near the house

*You are so close walking by yourself. You let yourself actually fall now without crying

*Oh and you LOVE to dance. I try so hard to get in on video but you know when mommy is video taping you so you stop...but I'm determined to get it

*You of course hate TV so we have music on ALL day and you are outside from sun up to sun down. 

*You love your grandpa. You two have a special connection it's so cute :)

*And you love your sugarnana. You can actually spot her voice if she's not in sight and you'll be all excited to go greet her. :)

*You love animals...period :)

*You now know if you aren't listening and will test mommy and daddy on certain things.

*I've also been doing time out because you have a temper...BAD. And I'm not into spanking...I just sit you in the corner and ignore you until you stop, which seems to be working.

*You weigh 23 lbs 11 oz and 31 in tall :) 

I sure hope you taller than your papa

*We opted out of the MMR, Chicken pox and HEP B and HEP A shots for now. When we start traveling to foreign countries we will prob get him vaccinated. But for now no shots. 

*let's see.....I think that's it for now, if I remember more I'll post again...

Love ya stinky :) 

I'm so in love with being your mama. 

I can't wait to show you the world....
